"Wonderful School with Amazing Staff"

I've been blown away by the kindness and dedication of the teachers and staff at Chesterton Primary. My child has grown so much since starting here, and I'm so grateful for the opportunities they've had to learn and develop their passions. The school's values of respect, trying their best, and telling the truth are clearly embedded in everything they do.

"A School that Truly Cares"

As a parent, it's been heartening to see the way the staff at Chesterton Primary look out for each other and for our children. The school's commitment to providing a safe and supportive environment is evident in everything they do, from the free breakfast program to the extracurricular activities. My child is thriving here, and I couldn't be more grateful.

"A Good School with Some Areas for Improvement"

We had a very positive experience at Chesterton Primary, and our child made some wonderful friends and memories. However, we did find the communication between the school and parents to be a bit patchy at times, and there were a few occasions when we felt like our concerns weren't being taken seriously. Overall, though, we're grateful for the education our child received here.
