Contact the School

Parents and carers are encouraged to call the school to make an appointment to see teachers if they have concerns about their child. Teachers are available on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays after school for meetings. Other times may be negotiated with individual teachers.

Round table meetings with all your child's teachers can be arranged by the Grade Coordinator or Assistant Principal.

Home Room teachers and Grade Coordinators can also collect information e.g. a 'snapshot' from teachers and report back.

Parents and carers are always welcome at HHS.
