"Wonderful School with Excellent Teachers"

I'm so impressed with Ongar Primary School. The facilities are fantastic, and the teachers are all so friendly and approachable. My child has really thrived here, and I love the emphasis on the Three Rights - it's a great way to teach children about respect, safety and learning.

"Mixed Feelings about Ongar Primary"

I have mixed feelings about Ongar Primary. On the one hand, the school has a lovely atmosphere and the teachers seem to care a lot about the children. On the other hand, I've found the communication between parents and teachers to be a bit patchy at times. Overall, I'm hoping it will improve as my child gets older.
