"A wonderful school experience"

My son has been at Guston for 3 years now and it's been an absolute pleasure. The teachers are caring, the facilities are excellent and the values they instil in the children are fantastic. We feel so lucky to have found this gem of a school!

"A great school community"

We moved out of area last year but our daughter still talks about her time at Guston. The school's emphasis on kindness, compassion and forgiveness really resonated with us. The staff were always approachable and supportive. We miss being part of the Guston community!

"A good school with some areas for improvement"

My daughter has had a great time at Guston but I do feel that the school could do more to engage with parents. The facilities are excellent and the teachers are mostly very good, but we've had some issues with communication and organisation. Overall, it's a good school but could be even better with a bit more effort.
