Message from the Principal
St Hurmizd Assyrian Primary School has built a strong reputation for providing a stimulating and dynamic educational environment. We are deeply committed to inspiring and guiding young children to reach their full potential, helping them discover their God-given talents and passions. Our mission is to nurture the whole child—intellectually, emotionally, socially, and spiritually—ensuring that each student thrives in a safe, supportive, and enriching atmosphere.
At St Hurmizd, we believe in offering a well-rounded education that not only focuses on academic excellence but also emphasises the development of character and values. We are dedicated to ensuring that each student’s holistic development is catered for and supported, encouraging them to grow into confident, compassionate, and capable individuals.
We encourage our students to challenge themselves, think deeply, and engage with the world around them. Equally important, we are committed to guiding them in their spiritual growth, helping them strengthen and build on their Christian faith as they journey through their educational experiences.
At St Hurmizd, we understand that education is a shared responsibility, and we are proud to create a close partnership with our families. We view parents not only as supporters but as integral members of our school community. By working together, we can create a nurturing environment where your child is empowered to explore, learn, and grow. Through collaboration with families, we ensure that every child receives the support they need to succeed and be prepared for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
