- **5/5** — Best school ever!: My son has been at St Mary's for 2 years now and I couldn't be happier. The school's values of kindness, tolerance, and friendship are something we value at home and it's great to see them in action here. The teachers are all very supportive and the facilities are excellent. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Good school, but some issues with communication: My daughter has been at St Mary's for 6 years and we've had a generally positive experience. However, we've sometimes struggled to get information about what's going on in the school and this can be frustrating. On the plus side, the teachers are all very supportive and the school's values are something we've really seen in action. *(Mar 2022)*
- **5/5** — A warm and welcoming community: We've only just started at St Mary's, but we've been made to feel so welcome by the staff and other parents. The school's focus on kindness and friendship is something we really appreciate and we're looking forward to being part of the community for many years to come. *(Oct 2021)*
- **5/5** — Excellent education and community: My children both went to St Mary's and I was thoroughly impressed with the education they received. The school's focus on academic achievement, combined with their emphasis on kindness and respect, helped them become confident and compassionate individuals. We're proud to have been part of the school community. *(Jun 2021)*
