Thank you for considering Hazel Glen College. The commencement of formal schooling is such an exciting time for you and your child.
The first year of school is a huge step in both your child’s life and your own. It marks the beginning of a journey that will set up a strong foundation for growth and independence.
Our staff pride themselves in their teaching and ability to differentiate learning for each individual student, and in ensuring they are always: approachable, compassionate, professional and supportive. Our classrooms are warm, caring and supportive environments that encourage students to take risks, have high expectations and do their best.
At Hazel Glen College, our educational aim for students is to be literate, numerate and skilled for the 21st Century. Curiosity drives the passion for learning. In our Prep classrooms, we devote time to daily English and Mathematics learning. Through our Curiosity and STEAM Programs, our Prep students are exploring the curriculum and developing their capabilities by being creative, curious, thinkers, researchers, communicators, collaborators and self managers.
