'''Heatherlands First School''' is a mixed school for 4-8 year olds in [[Parkstone]], [[Poole, Dorset]]. The school has 343 children in 3 classes per year. |
|||
Most of the children come from the Upper [[Parkstone]] area of [[Poole]] in [[Dorset]] which is primarily a residential suburb. |

The school was built in 1964 as the infants, the original Heatherlands School was built in 1880 and then became the juniors. In the 1970s schools in Poole went 3 tier with first schools for 4-8 year olds, middle schools for 8-12 year olds and the secondary school and 12. Heatherlands had two extra classrooms built for the extra year. In 1993 the caretaker's bungalow became comverted into classrooms for the reception chilren (4 year olds) and the school also had a number of huts. Recent years have seen some other modernisation to the school such as a safe carpark kept away from the playground and picnic areas. |
