From the Hollinswood Primary School
I'd like to take this opportunity to welcome you to Hollinswood Primary School & Nursery on behalf of our students, staff, and governors. Since 1980, we have served the neighbourhood as an infant and junior school and, beginning of January 2013, as a primary school. We take great satisfaction in being a warm and friendly school here at Hollinswood. We appreciate our connections with everyone associated with the school. We think of the school as a team made up of students, teachers, governors, parents, and a wide variety of other partners who contribute to what makes us special. Being a growing institution, we are dedicated to getting to know each child and family in order to meet their emotional, social, and academic needs. We are very proud of our learning environment and make the most of both indoor and outdoor areas to enhance teaching and learning opportunities. We are one of the greenest schools in the area due to our large, lovely grounds being situated so close to Telford's centre. Please get in touch with me at school if you want to learn more or if you want to come visit.
