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 an infant school, with the original Heatherlands School - built in 1880 - becoming a junior school. In the 1970s, schools in Poole became 3-tier, with first schools for 4-8 year olds, middle schools for 8-12 year olds and secondary school after 12 years of age. Heatherlands had two extra classrooms built for the extra year. In 1993 the caretaker's bungalow was converted into classrooms for the reception children (4 year olds) and the school also had a number of huts built. Recent years have seen some other modernisation to the school such as a safe carpark kept away from the playground and picnic areas.
