Hillcrest teaches a skills-based curriculum in our state-of-the-art learning facilities. Our brand new, purpose-built Prep - Year 2 Castle Precinct consists of 12 unique learning spaces in the design of a castle, with flexible indoor and outdoor learning areas, retractable doors, break-out spaces, modern furniture, innovative technology, and engaging play equipment.
The Years 5 - 8 Middle Learning Community and Precinct provides an innovative, open-plan environment that fosters self-directed learning and greater student engagement, and features an expansive open learning area, a sound studio, green-room, Skype room, Maker Space, media room, café and quiet study area.
Our newly-renovated SLC facilities offer a range of specialised and innovative learning spaces for our senior students, including art rooms, science laboratories, a large commercial grade kitchen for Nutrition Studies, ESTEAM labs, innovative and collaborative spaces, and an Engineering workshop.
Tech Central was completed in 2019 as our new collaborative technology space for Hillcrest students and staff, providing an open-plan, flexible, shared place for students to come and learn about new technologies, as they interact with our latest gadgets, like our mini 'Ozbots,' VR goggles, and drones.
The innovative space was also designed to improve our IT Support team's integration into teaching and learning by offering a comfortable and modern space for students to drop in any time for IT Support, and where the IT Support team can present PD Sessions and showcase new technologies.
