## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent School, Happy Children!: We moved to Alphington last year and have been so impressed with the school and its values. The facilities are great and the teachers are always approachable and supportive. My child loves going to school and is thriving in their year group. We're so grateful to be a part of the Alphington community. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — A Caring and Supportive Environment: We've been at Alphington for a few years now and have always felt like part of the family. The teachers are so caring and supportive, and the facilities are always well-maintained. My child is happy and engaged in their learning, and I feel like the school is really helping them to grow and develop as a person. *(Jun 2021)*
- **3/5** — Some Great Aspects, But Room for Improvement: We were at Alphington for a few years before moving out of the area, and while we had some great experiences, we felt like the school was a bit inconsistent in terms of quality. The facilities were great, and the teachers were often passionate and engaging, but we sometimes felt like the school was too focused on academic achievement rather than the well-rounded development of the child. Still, we're grateful for the time our child spent there and the friendships they made. *(Mar 2020)*
