"Great School, Could Be Better"
We're really happy with the progress our child is making at St James', the staff are friendly and the facilities are nice. However, we've noticed that the school can get a bit chaotic at times, especially during pick-up and drop-off. Overall though, we're pleased and feel our child is receiving a good education.

"Wonderful School"
Our child had a fantastic time at St James', the staff are so caring and the facilities are great. We especially loved the forest school programme, it was such a great way to get the kids outdoors and active. We're so grateful to have had the opportunity to send our child there.
