"Our children love coming to school!"

We've been at The Grove for a few years now and we can't praise the school enough. The teachers are always approachable and the facilities are fantastic. Our children love coming to school and always talk about the fun they have with their friends and teachers. We feel very lucky to be a part of this community!

"Great school but some areas for improvement"

We've been at The Grove for a while now and it's a great school in many ways. The kids are happy and the teachers are mostly nice. However, we've noticed that the school can be a bit disorganized at times and the communication from the school to parents could be better. Still, we feel lucky to have it as an option.

"Supportive community"

We moved away from the area when our child finished at The Grove but we still stay in touch with the school. The Grove has a really supportive community and the teachers were always willing to listen to our concerns. We felt safe and happy knowing our child was there. We would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a primary school.
