## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Fantastic School with Fantastic Staff!: We have been part of the KAPS community for 2 years now and it has been a wonderful experience. My child has grown into a confident and compassionate individual thanks to the school's values of Respect, Responsibility and Perseverance. The facilities are excellent and the teachers are supportive and caring. *(Sep 2022)*
- **4/5** — Excellent School, Minor Improvements Needed: We have been at KAPS for a year now and have had a great experience overall. The school's commitment to providing a well-rounded education is evident in the variety of programs and activities on offer. However, I feel that communication with parents could be improved and the school could benefit from having a more diverse range of extracurricular activities. *(Jun 2022)*
- **5/5** — A True Community Hub!: We left KAPS 3 years ago, but our family still feels part of the community. The school's focus on community and family is truly inspiring and has had a lasting impact on our children. The facilities are top-notch and the teachers are dedicated and passionate about their work. *(Mar 2022)*
