## Recent parent reviews

- **4/5** — Generally positive but some issues: We've had a mixed experience so far. The nursery and reception staff are wonderful, but we've had some issues with communication from the school office and the playground can get a bit chaotic at times. However, our child is happy and learning a lot, and we appreciate the values they're teaching. With a bit more attention to detail, St Mary's could be an even better school. 2022-12-01 *(Dec 2022)*
- **5/5** — Excellent school with lovely staff: We moved to the area and were worried about transferring our children to a new school. St Mary's has exceeded our expectations in every way. The facilities are fantastic, the teachers are kind and supportive, and the values they teach are in line with our own. Our child is thriving here and we feel so lucky to have found this school. 2022-09-15 *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — An amazing school experience: My child attended St Mary's from Reception to Year 6 and we couldn't be happier with the education and care they received. The school's commitment to Catholic values and social responsibility really resonated with us. The facilities are excellent and the staff are like an extended family. We'll always be grateful for the experience they had here. 2022-06-20 *(Jun 2022)*
