"Excellent facilities and values"

We've been extremely happy with St Peter's. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, and the values they teach are really important to us as a family. Our daughter loves the sports facilities and gets to participate in lots of extracurricular activities.

"A wonderful school community"

We have very fond memories of our time at St Peter's. The school community is warm and welcoming, and the staff are dedicated to helping students succeed. We were particularly impressed with the way they supported our son during a difficult time.

"Some mixed feelings"

We've had a bit of a mixed experience at St Peter's so far. Our daughter loves the school and the teachers are generally very supportive, but we're not entirely convinced about the way they handle discipline. We're hoping it will improve as she settles in.
