Hunters Hill High School is a unique school situated in what must be the most scenic site of any government school in Sydney.
It is unique not just for its geographic location, but for its connection with the natural landscapes of bushland and waterways. The school, which has a population of around under 800 students, is the perfect size in maintaining a sense of the individual while ensuring we are able to all make strong and positive connections as part of a community. This is reflected in the strong welfare ethos that runs through the school's policy and programs, including the school's UMATTER Mentoring scheme. Moreover, our size ensures that there are many leadership and extra-curricular opportunities catering for students with interests in the fields of both sport and the creative arts.
Hunters Hill High School is staffed by a dedicated group of teachers who not only have passion for their subject, but an expertise that offers an innovative and exciting approach to their classrooms. Students develop creative and critical thinking skills that put them in good stead for the world. Hunters Hill High School endeavours to meet the challenges of a changing world with modern approaches to learning such as its STEM partnership with The University of Sydney. The school aims to nurture self-reliant, resilient and responsible young citizens. A fact that is reflected in the success of Hunters Hill High School alumni who have transitioned into a variety of professional fields and exciting endeavours.
Above all, Hunters Hill High School is a happy school. Students are happy to attend, earn and strive for their best whilst their teachers are happy to commit and make those efforts necessary to guide and mentor their students on their way to being quality young adults.
