Hendra State School, established in 1864, is the oldest school in the district and one of the oldest schools in the state. We are very proud of this lengthy history of education and community partnerships.
At Hendra State School we pride ourselves on providing quality multi-age education. A feature of multi-age learning is its capacity to support individual learning styles and requirements. Curriculum is differentiated to provide a range of content and access. Our classrooms are environments where visible learning and explicit teaching makes expectations for success clear. Students enjoy access to large learning and play spaces. Our staff are dedicated to the learning and wellbeing of our students. We maintain partnerships with both neighbouring and like schools ensuring our students have equal access to opportunities and events.
Our small size enables us to foster close relationships with students and families. This is one characteristic of our school which makes us special and is a characteristic highly valued by our extended community.
Our school is supported by volunteers through our active Parent and Citizens Association. We have a chaplain who is also available to support wellbeing and an Adopt A Cop who also provides safety messaging for students. Opinion surveys from students, parents and staff indicate high levels of satisfaction with the school.
We would love you to visit our special place.
