Halcro or St. Andrew's is a district in Saskatchewan, Canada north of St. Louis and south of Prince Albert. Adjacent to the South Saskatchewan River, it was initially settled by Anglo-Metis from Manitoba in the 1870s. Halcro is located in the aspen parkland biome.
Education
[edit]Red Deer Hill has an elementary school called Osborne. It is located on Osborne Road and is a part of the Saskatchewan Rivers School Division.
Osborne opened in the late 1960s. It at one time had over 200 students. It is now down to about 95.
Religion
[edit]Halcro has an Anglican church with a cemetery. The church is called St. Andrew's and located on Halcro Church Road. Early in 2006, the church was vandalized and the consensus was to demolish it. But after a meeting was held in Birch Hills, they decided that the foundation was in good enough condition that it could be fixed.
