"What our parents say"

My first child started at St John's over 10 years ago. I now have my third child in Yr 2 and I couldn't speak more highly of a school community that has children's well being at heart. 

The team at St John's provides impeccable communication between teachers and parents, making it feel like a collaborative effort in educating my children and providing consistency at home. They take a holistic approach to teaching by nurturing children's academic, emotional and spiritual aspects in school life. 

In my experience, the teachers have given my children a safe place to not only succeed but to overcome challenges with gentle guidance and reassurance. I've felt like it's an environment that fosters a special growth where kids aren't necessarily taught what to think, but how to think, provoking creativity and problem-solving skills. 

They have the ability to recognise potential, advocate for those that need it and promote resilience and independence. They are governed by their school values, driven by their love of teaching and led by their commitment to providing a fun and memorable learning experience for their students. It’s been a pleasure to be part of this community all these years.
