Hercules Road State
School was opened in 1976. Since then our school has grown to be one of
the largest schools in the area, with a proud history of academic and
sporting achievements.
Our goal is to develop,
in all children, a love of learning and positive self esteem, in a safe
and nurturing environment, thus equipping them with the confidence to
take risks in their learning. This, combined with the knowledge that
bullying and inappropriate behavior, will not only be not tolerated but
actively targeted, establishes the conditions in which every child can
fulfil their potential.
We acknowledge that
parents are a child's first teacher, and that together we can lay the
foundations for academic, social and emotional success that facilitate
life-long learning.
Our drama. music,
sporting and leadership programs are designed to educate the 'whole'
person so that our students are offered a rounded and comprehensive
education and are fully equipped to deal with the rigours and
opportunities that abound in the real world. We believe that
individually and collectively 'People Make the Difference' and are
committed to the success of each and every student in our school. |
