Welcome
Welcome to Hallam Primary School. Our school is situated on the traditional lands of the Bunurong people of the Kulin Nation. We acknowledge their custodianship of this land where we come to work and learn each day.
Our core values-Fairness, Growth, Respect and Teamwork-were thoughtfully developed in collaboration with our student School Leadership Team (SLT). These values guide our daily decisions, actions and interactions.
We implement a high-quality educational program designed to prepare our students for success in the 21st century. Through effective teaching practices such as explicit instruction, experiential learning and inquiry-based approaches, we aim to empower our students to become critical thinkers, creative problem solvers and lifelong learners.
Our professional commitment extends beyond the classroom with experienced Leadership and Wellbeing Teams working alongside staff to support the diverse needs of our learners. By fostering an appreciation for learning and providing a solid educational foundation, we aim to prepare our students for a seamless transition to the next phase of their educational journey.
We look forward to partnering with you to build a productive future for all our students.
