"Wonderful experience for my child"

We've been at Fernhurst for 3 years now and it's been a fantastic experience. Our child is in Year 5 now and has flourished in their learning and social skills. The staff are supportive, the facilities are great and the values of the school align with our own. We're very happy with the school.

"A bit mixed on the communication"

We've been at Fernhurst for 2 years now and overall we're happy with the school. Our child is in Year 3 and is enjoying their learning. However, we've found the communication from the school to be a bit sporadic at times, which can be frustrating. We've had some great interactions with the teachers, but other times it feels like we're not getting the information we need.

"Great experience for my child"

We've been at Fernhurst since the start of Year 1 and it's been a great experience for our child. They're in Year 2 now and are really enjoying their learning. The staff are friendly and supportive, and we appreciate the extra-curricular activities they offer, such as the FunKidz Dance Club.

"Excellent education and care"

Both of my children attended Fernhurst and I couldn't speak more highly of the school. The education they received was excellent and the care and support they received from the staff was outstanding. My children have gone on to do well in their later education and I attribute this to the strong foundation they received at Fernhurst.
