The staff are dedicated, the facilities are fantastic, and the values of valuing and supporting each child are truly evident. My child has grown so much since starting here. *(Jan 2022)*
- **4/5** — Some Good, Some Room for Improvement: We had a mostly positive experience at Kingfisher, but there were a few hiccups along the way. The school is clearly committed to supporting children with additional needs, which is wonderful. However, I felt that communication could be better, and some of the events and activities were inconsistent. *(Jun 2021)*
- **5/5** — Exceptional Care: I've seen firsthand the care and attention the teachers give to each child, and it's truly heartwarming. My child loves the independence they're encouraged to take, and the extracurricular activities are a great bonus. We feel so lucky to be part of this school. *(Feb 2020)*
