"A Wonderful School Community"

I've been absolutely blown away by Newtown Community Primary. The sense of community is palpable and the staff are incredible. My child has loved the flower bed project and the outdoor classroom is a highlight of their week. We love the dress-up days and assemblies too!

"A Good, Not Great School Experience"

We had a generally positive experience at Newtown Primary during our time there. The facilities are lovely, and the staff are friendly and supportive. However, I did feel that the school could do more to engage with parents and involve us in the decision-making process. Still, it's a good school, and we're grateful for the education our child received.
