Welcome to the Halidon Primary School website.

I would like to begin by acknowledging that Halidon Primary School is a special school. It is one that is supported by a wonderfully caring community and professional staff that empower our students to be the best they can be. Our shared vision is one of high expectation and commitment to providing our students with excellence in educational approaches.

At Halidon Primary, we are committed to providing a nurturing and stimulating learning environment that fosters the academic, social, and emotional growth of every child. We want our students to have a passion for learning and a connected understanding of how they can contribute to a brighter future.

Our school motto, ‘Growing with Wisdom,’ encapsulates our belief in providing opportunities for all students to develop wisdom in cognitive abilities, social skills, physical fitness, and creativeness. We aim to inspire lifelong learners by creating a stimulating environment that challenges student to be creative, curious, and collaborative.

Halidon Primary has evolved into a school with well-established beliefs about teaching and learning. Our primary goal is to exceed student potential through quality differentiation and a strong focus on social and emotional well-being of our students. We embrace research-based teaching practices to ensure every student can achieve their full potential.

Our belief statement promotes excellence in teaching and learning, emphasising strong community partnerships within a supportive school environment. We are committed to fostering an engaging learning environment that helps inspire and support students in reaching their full academic and social potential. Our school GRROW values (Gratitude, Respect, Resilience, Ownership and Willingness) guide us in growing with wisdom together as a community.

We continually build on our strong connections with our community and always want to work closely with our community, and as such, are always willing to listen to opinions and feedback.

I have hopefully painted a picture of a truly special school, that Halidon Primary is, and I am sure you will too, given the chance.
