"Some Great Aspects, but Room for Improvement"

We've had a mixed experience at Forest of Galtres. The staff are very friendly and the school's emphasis on teamwork and respect is wonderful. However, my child has struggled with the homework load, and we've had some issues with communication from the teacher.

"Happy Memories of Our Time at Forest of Galtres"

We moved away from the area, but our child's memories of Forest of Galtres are still so fond. The school's commitment to Christian values and the extra-curricular activities were a big part of what we loved about the school.
