## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — A wonderful school community: We've had a child at St Aidan's for a few years now and they've thrived in the supportive and inclusive environment. The Forest School program is a highlight - our child loves spending time outdoors and learning in a fun and interactive way. We've found the staff to be caring, approachable and dedicated to helping their students shine. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Good but could improve: We've been happy with the education our child has received at St Aidan's, but there have been a few issues with communication and organisation. The school's facilities are great, and the Forest School program is excellent. However, we've found the school's administration to be a bit disorganised at times. *(Apr 2021)*
- **4/5** — A great school experience: We had two children at St Aidan's and they both had a great time. The school's Christian values were evident in everything they did, from the daily assemblies to the values-based learning. The school's communication with parents was also excellent - we always felt informed about what was happening in the school. *(Jun 2020)*
