"Exceptional school and values"

I've been blown away by the care and dedication of the teachers at Longden. The school's emphasis on thankfulness, curiosity, and joy is evident in everything they do. The facilities are amazing, and my child loves going to Grace's garden.

"Wonderful community and education"

As a former parent of two children at Longden, I can confidently say that the school provided an excellent education and a sense of community that's hard to find elsewhere. The outdoor classroom and sports field are fantastic, and the teachers are passionate about their work.

"Good school, but some room for improvement"

I love the values that Longden promotes, and my child has thrived in the caring environment. However, I've noticed that the school could benefit from some additional resources to support children with special needs.
