"A Good School but Room for Improvement"

We had a great experience at Barnes Farm Primary. The staff were generally friendly and our child did well academically. However, we did notice some variation in the quality of teaching and facilities could be updated.

"Inspiring Our Child to Learn"

I love how Barnes Farm Primary School encourages children to think creatively and explore their interests. The Owl Values are also great - our child has really taken to 'Responsible' and is making a positive impact on the school community.
