"Mixed Feelings"

We've had a mixed experience with Hilgay Riverside Academy. On the one hand, our child has made some wonderful friends and enjoys the Family Points system. However, we've found the communication from the school to be a bit patchy at times, and there have been a few issues with the playground equipment that have gone unfixed for too long. Overall, we're pleased with the school but feel that it could do a bit better.

"A School that Truly Cares"

As a former parent, I can confidently say that Hilgay Riverside Academy is a school that truly cares about the well-being and education of its children. From the moment my child started, we felt welcome and included in the school community. The staff are passionate and knowledgeable, and the opportunities for growth and development are second to none.
