A genuinely delightful school, with even more delightful children and an incredible school community. We have a really strong vision of 'Growing and Achieving Together'. Every day I smile when I see our children bring to life our values of Respect, Ownership, Care and Kindness.

"Mixed Feelings"

I have mixed feelings about Sandiway Primary School. While the teachers are friendly and the facilities are good, I feel that the class sizes are a bit large, and my child sometimes gets lost in the crowd. However, the Phonics program is excellent, and my child has made good progress.
