## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — A Home from Home for Our Children: St John the Baptist has been an absolute haven for our children. The dedicated teachers and staff have fostered a love of learning in our kids, and the community is warm and welcoming. We've been so impressed with the facilities, from the well-equipped classrooms to the beautiful playgrounds. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — A Solid Foundation for Future Success: We were thrilled with the education our children received at St John the Baptist. The emphasis on faith and values has had a lasting impact on their character, and the academic standards are high. While we moved to a different area, we still feel grateful for the foundation the school provided. *(Mar 2021)*
- **4/5** — Pleased, but Room for Improvement: We've been pleased with the school's commitment to our children's education and wellbeing. However, we've experienced some variability in teacher quality and communication. The facilities are excellent, and the teachers have been supportive, but we feel that the school could do more to engage parents in the decision-making process. *(Nov 2020)*
