"Wonderful Community and Facilities"
We joined Holy Rosary last year and have been blown away by the sense of community and the quality of the facilities. The playground is fantastic, and the staff are always happy to see us. My child has settled in beautifully and is thriving academically

"Great Education but Some Room for Improvement"
My child attended Holy Rosary for 2 years before moving on to secondary school. While I was very happy with the education they received, I did feel that the school could do more to support children with special needs. That being said, the teachers are excellent and the facilities are top-notch
