There's always something to celebrate at our school! From exciting events to proud moments and everyday wins, here are some of our highlights.

Premier’s Spelling Bee Success

Congratulations to Esther and Daniel, who proudly represented Hillside PS at the Regional Finals of the Premier’s Spelling Bee. Esther’s outstanding effort earned her the title of Senior Champion for our region. She then went on to compete in the State Finals at the Q Theatre in Penrith. With over a thousand schools entered this year, only 64 schools are represented at the State Finals. What an incredible achievement Esther!

Hoodwinked: A Show to Remember

What a show! Hoodwinked 2025 was nothing short of spectacular, leaving the audience laughing and cheering for our talented Hillside students. After weeks of dedication, energy, and passion, they delivered a performance bursting with heart, humour, and Hillside pride. We are so proud of every student and the incredible effort they put into making it a night to remember.

Education Week: Ignite your Potential

Throughout Education Week, Hillside students engaged in a variety of activities and discussions designed to ignite their passions and help them set goals for the future. It was heartwarming to see so many students showcasing their aspirations and imagining the possibilities that lie ahead. Together, we celebrated the potential within every student and encouraged them to reach for the stars! Thank you to everyone who participated and made this event a wonderful success.

"Being a small school, the children get even more opportunities to participate and get involved than in a large school environment. Hillside was the best choice my parents ever made for me - and now, the best one I’ve made for my own children.” — a parent of Hillside Public School
