HALLETT COVE SOUTH PRIMARY SCHOOL

The Hallett Cove South Primary School Community collaboratively strives to provide a relevant, challenging, excellent education for all students in its care – working together preparing for the future.

Principal’s Welcome

A school that values and recognizes the whole school community and the diversity of our students and each of their individual needs.

We strive to enable each student to achieve their personal best and to ensure that they are challenged and engaged in all parts of the learning process.

Our educational program at Hallett Cove South PS aims to challenge and excite students with an emphasis on individual skill development and to encourage life-long learning.

I look forward to the opportunity of speaking with you about this great community of learning. Please make a time to come in and meet with us, have a tour of the school, and to investigate an enriching environment for your child’s preschool to Year 6 schooling.

Congratulations to our very own Jenni Niederer and husband James for taking out the NRMA insurance community Sport Award.

Jenni is one of our many talented and valued SSO’s at HCSPS and everyone who knows her would agree there is no one more deserving of such a prestigious award than Jenni herself.

We are super proud and thank you for being a great role model for all of us to follow.

Colour Fun Run Success!

Congratulations to everyone for their positivity and display of school spirit with participating in our first ever ‘Colour Fun Run’ today!

It was amazing to be part of an inclusive, collaborative and exciting event brining together our community by shining the spotlight on the importance of health and fitness.

This fundraising opportunity was put together by our amazing SRC Leaders and we thank them for planning the day, running practice sessions and displaying their student voice through actions of sportsmanship today. Well done Indra, Alarah, Noureen, Evie, Ruby, Savea, Mia, Kitana and Troy.

Our event kicked off after lunch with all classes performing a ‘Just Dance’ for our ‘Health Hustle’ which even saw our parents and teachers join in the fun, we then moved to the grass area to begin our rotation stations involving students working in groups for the parachute letter scramble and connect four. Finally we finished off by working in pairs for the soccer dribble and footy kick accuracy. It was great to see so many happy faces and laughs during this working on both ‘team group skills’ and effective ‘partner feedback’.

The main event saw our fun run involve the anticipated ‘splash of colour’ and surprise sprinkler effect for the wow factor inviting parents, grand parents, SSO’s, teachers, brothers and sisters to join in the fun with our students. A very special moment for our HCSPS community.

Collectively, we managed to raise close to $4,000, which for a small school on their first attempt is absolutely amazing. We appreciate the assistance from School Fun-Run and although the emphasis was not on raising much needed funds for our school but rather, awareness for our health and fitness, your fundraising efforts are truly appreciated and will go towards projects for improving our school grounds.

Get ready to select your prizes online in the coming days and their is still time to gain more donations! Thank you to everyone for making this event possible and bringing us together as a community. Enjoy some happy snaps below.

With gratitude,

Luke & the SRC.

Nature Play SA Thank you for joining us tonight for a exhibition of Student learning in the outdoor learning space in the “Butterfly Garden”. Native animal and plant sculptures as well as student created produce was on display to highlight the incredible, student-led, transformation and learning occurring in the garden space. Thank you for your positive feedback and motivating comments to our students, they left with a big smile on their faces.

During Term 2 and 3, students from the 5/6 class have worked with Simon, our Aboriginal Community Officer and collaborated with Abe from Nature Play SA to continue to further imagine, design and build the outdoor classroom.

The beautiful and flexible learning space has been further developed with the addition of traditional use and bush tucker plants, creating a sustainable bush kitchen garden and learning environment for all to enjoy.

Enjoy the video highlighting a small snapshot of the evening and a big thank you to lead teacher Clare Ashley for her vision and SSO superstar Jenni Neiderer with utilising the produce from the garden along with all of our staff who assisted along this learning journey.

Amazing Congratulations to all involved

Looks amazing So much hard work Well done staff and children

Massive well done to everyone involved in this exhibition of learning. This group of learners were only in junior primary when we first began to reimagine the space but they have become connected and caring guardians of the plants and creatures that call it home. So proud to have played a small part in this wonderful project.

What an amazing effort. It’s incredible to see learners connect with their local environment through action. Their sense of pride is evident in their beautiful artwork and representation of the local flora and fauna 💚🌿

Paralympian Visit today: Lucinda Bueti leaves us with a 'growth mindset’ attitude!

Hallett Cove South Primary School students and staff were treated with a motivating visit by Australian Paralympian Basketball Super star, Lucinda Bueti this morning at assembly. Lucinda spoke about her ‘growth mindset’ and power of positive thinking to remain optimistic with all facets of life with her disability and urged everyone to follow her lead.

Lucinda was brave in sharing her story to how she navigated losing her leg and finding Wheelchair basketball to competing for Australia at the most recent world championships in Dubai. A big thank you to Lucinda for being generous with her time, staying back after and taking questions, meeting with students who share a similar physical disability and connecting with them on a holistic level.

Enjoy the attached photos of the positive interaction from this morning’s assembly and we wish her all the best for her goal of reaching the 2024 Paris Olympics next year and urge everyone to get behind the Gliders!

Adelaide Strikers visit HCSPS 🏏
Today students were treated to a free clinic and got to meet SMASH the mascot for the mighty strikers. It was a fantastic opportunity to soak up the sun this afternoon with students participating in a collaborative and inviting environment through physical activity.

If your child is interested in joining clinics to grow and develop their skills please see your classroom teacher for a information sheet.

A big thank you to Lyn Stribley for organising this great experience 👍

So many of you have helped and continue to help my daughters, both structured and spontaneous, and for that I truly thank you all ❤️

Love what I do I don’t think any of us would be there if we didn’t totally enjoy our days spent with a fantastic group of students who lighten our days with their compassion for each other, their strengths, commitment to their learning and their humour. We are also very lucky to have such a dedicated team of staff who all strive to make our little school such a special one ♥️

You are all definitely super sso’s 🩷 Your commitment and passion for helping our little people to be the best little people they can be is amazing.
