"A wonderful school community!"

We've been at Cornerstone for 2 years now and we've been so impressed with the friendly staff and the emphasis on values. Our son loves his teachers and the school's catchment area is so convenient. The Arbor Clubs are a great addition - he's made some wonderful friends there.

"Some good, some areas for improvement"

We're generally happy with Cornerstone, but we've had some issues with communication between teachers and parents. The school's facilities are great, and our son loves his classes, but we feel that the school could do more to engage with parents in a more meaningful way. We're hoping to see some improvements in the coming year.
