## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — A wonderful school with amazing staff!: We've been so impressed with De Fontein and the team there. Our son has thrived in the groene speelplaats and the daily kring has been a highlight for him. The Blotevoetenpad is a great idea too - it's so good to see the kids learning and playing outside. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Mixed feelings about De Fontein: We were initially impressed with De Fontein, but we've experienced some issues with communication and consistency. However, the staff are generally lovely and our son enjoys his time at school. The daily kring is a great idea, but sometimes it feels a bit chaotic. Overall, it's an okay school, but not perfect. *(Mar 2022)*
- **5/5** — A great school with a strong community: We were so sad to leave De Fontein when our daughter moved on to secondary school, but we're forever grateful for the experience she had there. The staff are passionate and dedicated, and the values of the school really shine through. The photos on the website are a great way to see what the kids get up to! *(Jun 2021)*
