"Amazing school!"

We've had an amazing experience at Parkland Junior School. The teachers are all so supportive and passionate about their subjects. The school's beekeeping program is also a unique and valuable experience for our child. We feel so lucky to have found such a great school.

"Love our school!"

We're so happy with Parkland Junior School! My child loves the animal therapy sessions with the llamas, ducks, and chickens. The staff are always so supportive and keen to help. The school's focus on wellbeing and environmental issues is also brilliant.

"Generally great, but some issues"

We've been happy with Parkland Junior School overall, but there have been a few times when communication from the school has been a bit patchy. The teaching is generally excellent, and our child enjoys the times tables practice with Times Tables Rock Stars. The school's focus on wellbeing is also something we appreciate.
