Welcome To Hillsgrove Primary School
Hello and a very warm welcome! My name is Kathryn Laurie, and I am proud to be the Principal of Hillsgrove Primary School. Since joining the school in 2012 as a Year 5 teacher, I have had the pleasure of working in various leadership roles across both Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2. After a brief time supporting another school in our Trust as Acting Assistant Head Teacher, I was delighted to return to Hillsgrove, where I became Principal in 2022.
At Hillsgrove, we are passionate about creating a nurturing, inclusive, and inspiring environment where every child is encouraged to aim high and achieve their best. Our recently refreshed curriculum is carefully designed to be ambitious, engaging, and relevant—ensuring that all pupils develop the skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to thrive both academically and personally.
We believe that education is a partnership between school and home, and we are committed to working closely with families to support every child’s journey. I warmly invite you to come and see our school in action—we would be delighted to show you what makes Hillsgrove such a special place to learn and grow.
We want pupils at Hillsgrove to be confident in having the skills and knowledge they need to thrive in the world beyond school. We want all pupils to share our high aspirations for themselves and to develop a love of learning for life.
