"Some Great Aspects, Some Room for Improvement"

Overall, I'm pleased with St Matthew's, but I do have some concerns about the school's communication with parents. Sometimes we don't receive updates about our child's progress or upcoming events, which can be frustrating. However, the school's facilities and values are truly wonderful, and the teachers are generally very dedicated and caring.
