## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent School Community: I've been thoroughly impressed with St Marys ever since my child joined the school. The values of kindness, respect, and forgiveness are palpable and evident in every interaction. My child has grown significantly and made lasting friendships. The teachers are supportive and the facilities are excellent. We're so grateful to be part of this lovely school community! *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Mixed Feelings about St Marys: We've had a mixed experience at St Marys. The teachers are dedicated, and the facilities are nice. However, we feel that the school could do more to engage with parents and keep them informed about their child's progress. We also had some issues with the school's STEM programs. Despite this, our child is happy, and we appreciate the school's emphasis on kindness and respect. *(Jan 2022)*
- **5/5** — Wonderful Education and Extra-Curricular Activities: We moved away from the area, but we still talk about our wonderful experience at St Marys. The education was exceptional, and the teachers were always available to support our child. The extra-curricular activities, such as the Macmillan Coffee Morning and the Fairtrade Fortnight Assembly, were fantastic and gave our child valuable experiences. We highly recommend St Marys to anyone seeking a well-rounded education! *(Mar 2021)*
