St Mary's has exceeded our expectations in every way. The teachers are all so warm and encouraging, and the facilities are top-notch. We've been impressed by the way the school incorporates Christian values into everyday life - it's lovely to see our child learning about kindness, compassion, and empathy.

"Our St Mary's Journey"

We've had an amazing time at St Mary's. The Forest School activities have been a highlight for our child, and the values-based approach has really stuck with them. The staff are all super supportive and the facilities are brilliant.

"Some Good, Some Bad"

We've had a mixed experience at St Mary's. On the one hand, our child has loved the Forest School sessions and the school's emphasis on Christian values is really important to us. However, we've sometimes found the communication with teachers to be a bit patchy, and the lunch menu could do with a refresh. Overall, it's been a decent experience, but we're not entirely sure if we'll stay for the full 7 years.

"Wonderful School Experience"

We loved our time at St Mary's - our child thrived and made great friends. The school's Christian values really resonated with us as a family, and the opportunities for learning outside the classroom were fantastic (especially the trip to France!). We'll always be grateful for our St Mary's experience.
