At Hilder Road State School, we believe in the power of togetherness, fostering a strong sense of belonging where every child is supported to become a Hilder Hero. This is born from the school’s rich history of nearly 50 years of learning along with our experienced and dedicated staff who always have our learner’s best interests at heart; creating a nurturing environment where every individual learner is valued and encouraged to thrive. With the unwavering support of our caring Parents & Citizens' Association (P&C), we ensure that all students receive the resources and opportunities they need to succeed. Nestled in a leafy green residential area, our school is built on a foundation of long-term families who cherish and take pride in our welcoming, close-knit community.
Our school facilities provide endless opportunities for students to learn, play and connect. We are home to one of the largest ovals on Brisbane’s northside, offering AFL, cricket, tennis, netball, and expansive play areas that promote connection and active engagement for all learners. Our curriculum is carefully tailored to meet the needs of each child, integrating the Australian Curriculum with differentiated support to ensure that every student can reach their full potential. From an annual musical, Premier dance and football programs, unique sporting opportunities, and much-loved Arts program; to a culture of academic excellence, our school provides a wide variety of learning experiences that empower every student to grow into a confident and capable Hilder Hero. We warmly invite you to join our vibrant school community, where your child will be encouraged and supported every step of the way.
