## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Excellent education and values: St Stephen's has exceeded our expectations in every way. The school's emphasis on spiritual growth, academic achievement, and personal development has helped our child become a confident and compassionate individual. We're sad to be leaving! *(Jun 2023)*
- **4/5** — Good but room for improvement: We've had a mixed experience so far. The nursery has been great, but the Year 1 teachers could be more communicative about our child's progress. That being said, the school's clubs and sports programs are fantastic and our child loves attending them. *(Feb 2023)*
- **5/5** — Our lovely St Stephen's community: We've been part of the St Stephen's community for 2 years now and we've never looked back! The values the school teaches are truly reflected in the kindness and respect shown by the children towards each other. The residential trips are also a highlight for our child. *(May 2022)*
- **5/5** — Wonderful learning journey: My child thoroughly enjoyed their time at St Stephen's and made some amazing friends. The teachers were always approachable and supportive. The nursery was also fantastic, providing a warm and nurturing environment for our little one. *(Oct 2020)*
