## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Fantastic school and caring staff: My child has just started at Hamstel and we are absolutely loving it. The staff are so caring and welcoming, and the facilities are excellent. I particularly appreciate the Eco Committee and Wellbeing Champions programs - it's great to see the children taking responsibility and looking out for each other. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Wonderful school, but some areas for improvement: We've been at Hamstel for a few years now and overall we're very happy with the school. The children are taught well, and the extra-curricular activities like the Colour Run and cross-country are a lot of fun. However, I do think the playground could be improved - there aren't many shaded areas for the children to play in during the summer. *(Jun 2021)*
- **5/5** — Excellent education and care for my children: My twins attended Hamstel from Reception to Year 2 and we couldn't be more pleased with the education and care they received. The staff were always supportive and communicated well with us, and the children loved the library and playground. We particularly appreciated the Nursery Admissions process - it was so easy to get our children settled in. *(Mar 2020)*
