"Outstanding School Experience"

I'm so grateful to have found Lindhead School for my children. The facilities are amazing, especially the Millennium Wood with the raised walkway and hides. The 'The Lindhead Way' values are clear and evident in everything they do, and my child has thrived under their care. We couldn't be happier! (2022-02-10)

"Excellent Foundation for Future Success"

My children attended Lindhead from Reception to Year 6 and thrived in every way. The outdoor classroom and wildlife area were a highlight of their school days, and they developed a lifelong love of learning. The school's commitment to 'The Lindhead Way' values shines through in everything they do. We couldn't be prouder of our kids! (2021-04-15)

"Excellent Education and Staff"

We've been at Lindhead for a few years now and have been consistently impressed with the quality of education and care. The staff are so supportive and enthusiastic, and the 'Busy Buzzy Bees' phonics program has been a game-changer for my child's reading skills. Only giving 4 stars because the school meal options could be better! (2020-09-20)

"Some Great Aspects, Room for Improvement"

We've had a mixed experience at Lindhead. The staff are mostly great, and the school's musical programs are excellent. However, the communication with parents could be better, and some of the facilities are a bit outdated. Overall, we're happy with the education our child is receiving, but there's room for improvement. (2020-06-25)
