Every week, teachers identify 2 outstanding pupils in their class who have had a fantastic week either academically or socially or both! These pupils are entered into the Golden Book and are announced during our Friday morning celebration assembly. Our fabulous winners in the infants receive a certificate in assembly and parents of the 'golden' children in the juniors receive a letter home, informing parents of their child's fantastic achievement.

How can we keep safe on line?

Last week EST ESafety Training providers visited staff, pupils and parents at Hilldene Primary, providing essential information and advice on how to keep safe online.

With powerful messages and thought provoking questions, pupils were encouraged to speak up if they have any doubts or are contacted online by people they do not know.

For parents the message was clear - if your child comes to you with a concern, think carefully about your response: This could determine whether they tell you again about their concerns in the future.

Thank you to all the parents who were able to attend the parent information meeting. Your feedback is important and we hope you found it informative.

Year 1 - Children in Need

We joined in with the annual Children in Need day by wearing spotty clothes! There were some fantastic homemade t-shirts and lots of money raised.


​Thank you to all the parents and carers for their support.
