## Recent parent reviews

- **4/5** — Mixed feelings about St Mary's: We're still getting to know the school, but I do love the focus on Christian values and the sense of community. The teachers seem nice, but I'm a bit concerned about the class sizes - I hope they're manageable for the kids. Overall, I think St Mary's has potential, but it's too early to say for sure. *(Sep 2023)*
