At Hillside Public School, every Year 6 student is a school leader, which ensures our students are confident and well prepared for high school and beyond.

The primary students have been enjoying the STEM challenge activities they have been engaged in this term. These problem solving activities have seen the design and making of parachutes and boats for toy soldiers using limited resources. The testing of the parachutes and boats was a lot of fun and caused great hilarity at time. Throughout the school the 5C’s of 21st Thinking are embedded in school programs. We are encouraging students’ creativity and critical thinking in the classrooms and have the students developing their collaboration, cooperation and communication skills in all facets of school life. Sport and student fitness are crucial for the well-being or all our students. After a very successful performance at the Zone Swimming Carnival, our relay team qualified to swim at the upcoming Sydney North Swimming Carnival at Homebush. All students are currently training for the School Cross Country being held early next term and are participating in weekly aerobic classes. Later this term they will be involved in 5 days of gymnastics lessons. The school has also entered in the Small Schools Soccer Knockout so the students are busy training for this as well.
