The facilities are top-notch, the teachers are passionate and caring, and the ARC values of Aspiration, Respect, and Connection are woven into every aspect of school life. My child excels in their Scouts group and has made lifelong friends. A big thank you to the entire Aegir team! *(May 2023)*
- **4/5** — Aegir has its ups and downs: We've been at Aegir for a year now and while we've seen some positive changes, we're still waiting for consistency in teaching and communication. The facilities are great, but the fundraising events can be overwhelming at times. Our child enjoys their Scouts group and has made some good friends. Overall, we're hopeful for the future at Aegir. *(Feb 2023)*
