"Love this school!"

We've been at St Mary's for 3 years now and I couldn't be happier. The staff are so caring and the facilities are amazing - the outdoor heated pool is a highlight for the kids! They really live out their values of STAR and it's lovely to see the kids grow in faith and confidence. Highly recommend!

"Great school, a few tweaks needed"

We've been at St Mary's for 2 years now and have had a generally positive experience. The staff are friendly and the facilities are good. However, I sometimes feel that the school could do more to engage with parents and keep them informed about what's going on. Also, the outdoor pool is still out of action which is a shame. Overall, a great school that just needs a bit of fine-tuning

"Fantastic school community"

We were at St Mary's for 7 years and it was an incredible experience. The school has a real sense of community and the kids are encouraged to be their best selves. The eco garden is also a wonderful initiative and the kids loved helping out with the gardening. We're so grateful to have been a part of it
