The values of love, respect and friendship are truly lived out by the teachers and staff, and we love the emphasis on Christianity in the curriculum. Our child has thrived here and made great friends. We have no complaints at all!

"Some positives, some room for improvement"

We have had a mixed experience at St Mary's. Our child has enjoyed their time here, especially in the areas of arts and sports, but we have sometimes struggled with the communication between teachers and parents. The website is also not always up-to-date, which can be frustrating. That being said, we do appreciate the strong values and commitment to Christianity that the school promotes.

"Wonderful facilities and community"

We were very happy with St Mary's when our child was a student here. The facilities are great, especially the playground and sports fields. The staff were always supportive and the school has a lovely community feel. We have kept in touch with friends we made through the school and our child still talks about their time here fondly.
