Hillcrest Primary School

Not a school for kids who have autisum or behaviour issues. But great teachers thats it

The school has allowed my child to be hit and kicked bye another student repeatedly just because he has autism" and there has always been an excuse for that with no punishments at all. my child feels unsafe because of this. also Unstructured class rooms make for poor learning."

i went to this school from yr 1-6 and dang was it an experience, to say the least.this school was pretty good, i had some fun times n stuff, but i always kinda felt like i was treated differently by the staff and other kids, just because i was east asian (aka chinese).i thought it was normal before, even wanted to be a different race than i was, but now that im in high school im treated completely differently (and shall we say, normally) and its really made me think about my experience here.it wasnt open harrassment of any kind, but i do reccomend you think about this before sending your child here.all in all, schooling here was alright, pretty average, basically what you'd expect from a public primary school.i suggest the teachers n staff look into letting students from year 3 and up bring their own devices, as lots of other schools do it and it seems to be mostly beneficial.i wont say who i am, but go ahead and take a wild guess !!!

no hill, no crest, children taste like 1 dollar melted maccas burger, disgousting,. INFLATION

The teachers were fantastic when I was here, as this school has changed heaps over the years and looks fantastic now, though I do need to come back and see what changes have been done since I was last here. The playgrounds are fun as well

I went to this school from year 5-7 in 2015-2017. Honestly I was going through a really rough home life that I never mentioned at school, literally ever. I didn’t feel like confiding in any teachers of mine, however I did feel safer being at school. 2017 was definitely a hard year for me, home was abusive, but going to school? That was where I felt safe. My teacher was Mr Sweeney and he honestly is the only reason I made it through that year. Without his guidance I would’ve never been where I am today. There is always that one teacher who really changes your life as a young child and Mr Sweeney was THAT teacher. Truly helped me through the toughest year of my life, even though I never once confided into how hard life at home was, he was always very friendly and made school easier. Thanks to him, I have gotten very far in life, I never would have if it wasn’t for him but I now work for the government at 17!! He was truly the best teacher, he needs an award for his outstanding teaching- Brianna F

I went to Hillcrest Primary School during the 1970's and have nothing but fond memories of good friends and inspiring Teachers. Of playing on the jungle gym, competing with friends on who could jump the furthest on the rope swing, doing all the things that children aren't allowed to do now because its unsafe". Of teachers who knew what they taught and did it in a way that grabbed your attention and sparked passion in it. Sadly

It was great until I got to year 4. I got accused of trying to set a fire when I was just looking at my hand through a magnifying glass. There has been some questionable employment for teachers. I'm really sad That Mr. Grigg left the school. His replacement was great. I mostly enjoyed it but bullying was not very punished.

Great school with great teachers. Friendly environment with great social contact.

I miss this school and the drama with all the fake friends, loved it!!!Its Garv!!!!!!!!!!!
