"Good, but could be improved"

We've been happy with our experience at Parkdale so far, but there are a few areas that need improving. The facilities are great and the staff are mostly friendly, but the communication could be better. Our daughter enjoys the Apple Distinguished School program and the emphasis on digital learning is good, but sometimes it feels like the workload can be too heavy.

"Excellent education and caring staff"

Our daughter attended Parkdale Primary from Reception to Year 6 and had a fantastic time. The education she received was excellent and the staff always went above and beyond to support her. We were particularly impressed with the Forest School program and the emphasis on outdoor learning.
