As one of the
oldest schools in Australia, Hutchins has a long tradition
of developing character in boys with a firm focus on wellbeing.
This is a wonderful place where our outstanding staff inspire,
challenge and nurture each boy to be the best he can be
in whatever area his passion lies.
Welcome to the Early Learning Centre.
The thing I really love about
working at Hutchins in the Kindergarten is coming in every morning
and being greeted by those happy, friendly faces.
I really like teaching Year 2.
It's really nice watching their relationships with each other form.
The Junior School at Hutchins
is an exciting place to be, an exciting place to work,
and our boys love spending time here.
Fundamental to everything we do at Hutchins
is a strong culture of positivity amongst the boys,
kindness, a real strength of the community,
not just the classroom, but beyond as well.
Welcome to the Middle School.
We understand that moving from a primary setting to a secondary
setting can be really challenging for young people.
We aim to provide an inclusive environment where they feel safe and supported.
I usually find that by the end of Year 8 students are ready to move on.
They've embraced all the opportunities we've provided them with and
they're ready to take on new adventures and what lies beyond our Middle School.
In the Senior School, students are in vertical mentor groups.
What that means is that within each mentor group,
there are students from Year 9 all the way through to Year 12.
The advantage of this is that there are older students
who make great role models for the younger ones as they move through.
Hutchins provides
something for every individual student, whether it be dance, sports or academics.
We hope that every student finds a group where they feel they belong and
can contribute.
The reason I like
being here is because of the students and families
that I've got to know over the last 25 years.
The boarding house is a home away from home for the boys,
so they've got some great opportunities to form some relationships with staff
and other students from all around the world.
We've got our own little community here.
It's a family and we're really proud of what we've been able to create.
I invite you to explore our website, learn more
about the diverse opportunities and innovative
programs tailored specifically for boys that sets Hutchins apart.
While the website will provide an overview of the opportunities that await,
only by visiting the campus, taking a School tour,
and seeing the boys engaged in these opportunities,
will you get a true sense of this special place
and the strong sense of community that exists amongst all boys and staff.
