Hurstville Adventist School packs 214 shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child

Every year during our Week of Spiritual Emphasis here at Hurstville Adventist School, we venture out to find ways that we can serve our community by participating in a service project. This year we have had the opportunity to partner with Samaritan’s Purse and contribute to the amazing mission that is Operation Christmas Child.

Tell me and I forget, teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn

Since I started teaching in 2017, I have learnt that a school is so much more than a place where knowledge is passed from one generation to the next. It is a place where children can develop a love of learning and build their character as well as form meaningful relationships with their peers, teachers and God. It is also a place where young children have the opportunity to learn about and question the world around them in a safe environment. As a primary school teacher, I feel privileged to be part of each child’s journey.

Hurstville Adventist School Receives ACARA Recognition for Above Average Gains in NAPLAN

Gains are measured against the national average, against schools with similar students and against students with similar starting scores. Gains show the growth in students who have taken consecutive NAPLAN test at the same school.
