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.
