"Still learning the ropes"

We're still fairly new to St Stephen's, but so far we've had a mixed experience. Our child's Reception teacher has been great, and we love the school's focus on creativity and learning through play. However, we've found some of the communication from teachers to be a bit lacking, and it's taken some time to get used to the school's online systems. Overall, we're hopeful that things will improve over time.

"A great school with a strong focus on values"

We were very happy with St Stephen's when our child was a student here. The school's values of love, courage, creativity, and joy were really evident in everything they did. While there were some occasional issues with communication, we found the teachers to be caring and supportive. I would definitely recommend this school to others.
