## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — A warm and supportive environment: My child has been thriving at De Griffel since joining in Year 4. The open and respectful atmosphere has been a great fit for our family's values. The school's emphasis on socio-emotionale, motorische and creatieve vaardigheden has helped my child grow into a confident and curious learner. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Good but could improve on communication: We have been generally pleased with De Griffel, but sometimes feel that communication between teachers and parents could be better. The school's facilities and programs are excellent, and our child has enjoyed the school's activities and events. However, we would like to see more regular updates on our child's progress. *(Jun 2022)*
- **5/5** — Exceptional care and support: As a former parent of a Year 2 child at De Griffel, I can confidently say that the school provides exceptional care and support for its students. The school's commitment to providing a warm and safe environment, where every child feels at home, is truly commendable. *(Dec 2021)*
