## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Love the sense of community!: We've been at St Edwards for a few years now and every time I walk through the doors, I'm struck by how welcoming and caring the school feels. The values of love, learn, smile and believe really come alive here, and my child is thriving thanks to the dedication of the staff. *(Sep 2022)*
- **5/5** — A fantastic school with a real family feel: We chose St Edwards because of its strong Catholic identity and supportive community, and we've been impressed by the way the school lives out its mission every day. The staff are always available to chat and the facilities are great too - my child loves participating in the sports teams. *(Jun 2022)*
- **4/5** — Some positives, but room for improvement: We've been at St Edwards for a year now and while we like the sense of community and the values the school promotes, we've had some issues with the communication from the school and some of the classroom resources. We're hoping these will be addressed in the coming year. *(Jan 2022)*
- **4/5** — A great education and wonderful memories: I have many fond memories of my time at St Edwards, both as a child and as a parent. The school's emphasis on faith and values really made a big difference to me, and I'm grateful for the education and experiences my children had here. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that some of the facilities could do with an update. *(Mar 2021)*
