"Delighted with Darlinghurst Academy"

My child is in Year 4 and we have been so impressed with the school. The staff are all kind and supportive and the facilities are excellent. We love the 'Tea and Talks' initiative which really helps us understand what my child is learning and how we can support them at home.

"A few mixed feelings"

My child is in Year 6 and we have had a bit of a mixed experience with Darlinghurst Academy. The staff are all very supportive and the facilities are great, but we have found the communication from the school to be a bit patchy at times.

"Exceptional school, exceptional teachers"

I have two children who attended Darlinghurst Academy and I couldn't be more grateful for the experience they had. The teachers are all exceptional and the school's values really shine through in everything they do. We were so sad to leave the school but my children were well prepared for their next step.
