"A wonderful school community!"

My child has been attending St Pius Xth for 3 years now, and I'm so impressed with the values they've instilled in him. The staff are caring, dedicated and genuinely passionate about each child's development. We love the Spanish Day celebrations and the school's commitment to Catholic values is inspiring. 10/10 would recommend!

"Excellent wrap-around care!"

My son attended St Pius Xth for 2 years before moving up to secondary school. The wrap-around care was a lifesaver for our family - flexible, reliable and safe. The teachers and staff were always approachable and supportive, and I loved how they encouraged my son to pursue his interests. A very special school!

"Room for improvement, but lovely staff!"

We've been at St Pius Xth for a year now and while the staff are lovely, I'm not entirely convinced about the facilities. The playground is a bit small and the school dinners can be hit-or-miss. However, the teachers have been great with my child and I appreciate their commitment to Catholic values. Fingers crossed they invest in some upgrades soon!
