Hills Christian Community School

Hills Christian Community School HILLS is a place where students grow and develop their creativity, and become learners capable of innovation and collaboration with a strong sense of self.

Welcome to The Hills Christian Community School (HILLS)

At HILLS we provide a nurturing environment, that gives our student’s the foundations to flourish and be the best version of themselves. We believe these elements are crucial, and are the driving force behind the education we provide for each student that empowers them to develop as successful learners and valuable members of the wider community. Occupying 19 acres within the picturesque Adelaide Hills, our school is a fascinating place where students are immersed in nature which stimulates and inspires both creativity and curiosity. Our unique backyard allows our learning environments to extend beyond the four walls of the classroom into a space where students can learn, grow and play with nature. Students have the unique and specific benefits from outdoor learning which are essential for healthy brain and socioemotional development. We strive to bring joy to education by re-establishing connection with the natural environment and promoting a curriculum which advocates sustainability. HILLS provides a place for consistency by offering an Early Learning to Year 12 pathway to complete your child’s learning journey. We welcome you to discover more about our extraordinary learning environment and invite you to book a personalised tour.

A WONDERFUL DAY OF LEARNING WITH THE
HON. REBEKHA SHARKIE MP - MEMBER FOR MAYO

Our HILLS Year 6 students had the privilege of learning about life as a Parliamentarian, taking part in a fun ‘No Homework Bill’ role play and a Q&A session.

A fantastic opportunity to connect their classroom learning with the real world and prepare them for their Canberra trip next week!

A big thank you to Rebekha for making learning about democracy so engaging and memorable!

R U OK? DAY AT HILLS

R U OK? Day is a wonderful reminder to check in, start a conversation and let others know they’re not alone, today and every day.

As part of our “Nurtured to Thrive” pillar, our students enjoyed a range of activities designed to build connection, wellbeing and opportunities for conversation. From sport and board games to Playdoh and time in nature, and wearing a splash of yellow, there was plenty of fun and connection throughout the day!

We encourage all our HILLS families to keep the conversation going and check in with those around you.

SUPER CARS SCHOOLS DAY
The Bend Motorsport Park, Tailem Bend

Today our Year 11 & 12 boys are learning about job opportunities in the racing industry as a mechanic or any one of the many other possibilities. What an incredible opportunity to get up close and personal with some of the drivers and their teams.

Noah met his favourite supercar driver Broc Feeney and we had a behind the scenes tour of the Triple Eight Race Engineering pits. A highlight of the day for Jacob was the opportunity to check out the Porsche lineup from inside the pits. Ms Holland highly recommends earmuffs for future visits.

THE RITE JOURNEY
Year 9 Girls Solo Night

Last week, as part of The Rite Journey program, our Year 9 students participated in their ‘Solo Night’ at “Broken Gum Retreat. They slept in a self-constructed shelter and spent the evening ‘disconnected’ from the others by eating and sleeping alone around the property .

“As you travel solo, being totally responsible for yourself, it’s inevitable that you will discover just how capable you are.”

This camp has been developed to build on the lessons learned this year throughout the Rite Journey Program. The aim of this experience is to provide students with opportunities to challenge themselves, to learn more about life, themselves, peers and relationships. They will develop their independence and resilience and gain a greater appreciation of their own abilities.

YEAR 8 HISTORY

As part of their History studies, our Year 8 students had the unique opportunity to connect their learning with a real-world experience. They were joined by Jørgen Jansen, a local carpenter born in Denmark, who built a 7-metre Viking longboat during the COVID lockdowns. His craftsmanship has been showcased in one of the most-viewed exhibitions at the Adelaide Museum, attracting significant public interest.

Jørgen shared the story of how he built the boat and explained the traditional skills involved. Students were fascinated to see how their learning connected to real craftsmanship and history. It was a highlight of their History program, making the world of the Vikings feel real and memorable.
