"Room for improvement on communication"

We've had a mixed experience so far. The school's facilities are lovely, and the teachers are friendly. However, we've struggled with getting updates on our child's progress and feel that communication could be better. We're hoping it improves as we continue.

"A warm and welcoming community"

I am so grateful to have found St Mary's for my children. The values of compassion, friendship, koinonia, and trust are truly evident in everything they do. From the amazing outdoor learning space to the dedicated teachers, my children thrive here. We feel like part of a big family!

"A fantastic education and community"

We loved our time at St Mary's. The school's commitment to its Christian values was inspiring, and the teachers were always supportive. My children enjoyed the Forest School and Outdoor Learning sessions, and we appreciated the strong sense of community. We miss it dearly!
