"Excellent School with Amazing Staff!"

I've been impressed with St Norbert's from day one. The school's values of kindness, respect and compassion are evident in everything they do. My child loves the after-school clubs and the staff are always approachable and supportive. We feel very fortunate to have found this school.

"A True Community"

St Norbert's has become a second family to us. The school's commitment to Catholic values and community service is inspiring. My child loves the learning environment and the staff are always going above and beyond to support us. We couldn't be happier with our choice of school.

"A Good School, But Room for Improvement"

We had a good experience at St Norbert's, but there were a few issues with communication and organisation. The staff were generally supportive, but sometimes it felt like they were overwhelmed. The facilities are lovely and the values of the school are great, but I think they could do more to engage with parents and carers.
