## Recent parent reviews

- **3/5** — Some great aspects, but room for improvement: We've had a mixed experience at Holmbush Primary. The facilities are great, especially the library and outside classroom. However, we've struggled with communication from the school at times, and our child's progress hasn't always been clear. That being said, there are some fantastic teachers and support staff who really care about the children. We just hope to see some improvements in the future. *(Jun 2022)*
