From the Castle Hill Primary School
I'd like to extend a warm welcome to you and your kid on behalf of everyone at Castle Hill Primary School and wish you both a joyful, exciting, and fruitful educational journey.
Our goal is to collaborate with parents in order to expand on the knowledge and abilities you have already acquired while raising your child at home.
In everything we do at Castle Hill, everyone has high expectations.
At Castle Hill, we make a concerted effort to provide a motivating, encouraging, and challenging learning atmosphere where kids can be themselves and want to study and do their best.
We think that in addition to having excellent foundational skills in reading, writing, mathematics, and computing, children today also need to develop a variety of other traits, such as the capacity to collaborate with others, the ability to reflect on their own learning, the capacity to come up with original solutions to problems, the capacity to ask probing questions, and the capacity to accept the changing world they are growing into.
We are dedicated to fostering the growth of these traits in a welcoming environment that values respect, self-assurance, and responsibility.
We think that children who know how to enjoy success in school will go on to become their own success stories later in life. At Castle Hill, our students are at the centre of all we do.
Because Castle Hill is a place where dreams and goals come true, we want your kid to thrive and feel content and safe while they are with us.
