Welcome to Hillfield Strathallan College—a community where children and their learning are at the forefront. Each child is known, challenged to do their best, and supported in that pursuit. We believe the best education of any child is achieved through a partnership between the school and the family, with the shared goal of helping students to achieve their full potential.

 

Consistently, parents choose HSC because they seek an elevated academic standard, individual attention, and leadership opportunities in a safe, caring, and nurturing environment. The unique opportunity for HSC to be a seamless educational journey for a child from 18 months to 18 years is also something that is attractive to many of our families.

 

HSC consists of four small schools united by a common commitment to a shared Mission and Ideals. We are committed to ensuring a balance between the development of student independence and guidance from a caring faculty, sensitive to the age and stage of the student. We aim to develop students who ask great questions, are resilient problem-solvers and are connected to the wider world. All students learn differently, and we make every effort to address individual learning needs and styles.

 

True learning occurs when the curriculum is engaging and relevant, and we believe learning is not restricted to the classroom. We leverage our 50-acre campus to provide a wide range of curricular and co-curricular experiences where your child is sure to find their niche. In addition to a first-class academic program. HSC students discover and follow their passions, whether they lie in academics, athletics, fine arts, outdoor education or community service. Through shared experiences, the close-knit HSC community helps students bond with their classmates and teachers for life.

 

Please explore our site to learn a bit more about the incredible opportunities available at HSC. However, the true flavour of the HSC experience can only be gained by visiting us. You will see joyful, engaged, purposeful learners, students and faculty working together, students pursuing their dreams on the fields, in the gymnasia and in the theatre, or simply enjoying one another's company around the campus. I hope you will join us to discover what makes Hillfield Strathallan College such an amazing place.
