PARENT TESTIMONIALS
“It’s been wonderful for my daughter. She began in the ELC and we weren’t sure where she was going to go after that but very early we knew. She developed strong friendships, the parents were a lovely bunch and we felt very welcome.” St Thomas Aquinas Parent
“We see the teachers working really hard. You can see people giving their best. You go to events like fetes or even just doing before- or after-school duty and you see the teachers very chatty and friendly.” St Thomas Aquinas Parent
“It was a smooth transition to secondary school. The expectations were already set up, it felt like the same sort of culture moving through. The children were very well equipped academically to deal with the change.” St Thomas Aquinas Parent
“The school practises what it preaches. It teaches the values and they bring them out in the children on a daily basis. “ St Thomas Aquinas Parent
“We sent them there not because it was a Catholic school but because we were welcomed into the doors by the Principal and sent straight to the kindy room. Straight away, it was like, yep, this is the place for us. Literally, the Principal opened the doors. I felt like I arrived home. Especially after I had already seen the government school.” St Thomas Aquinas Parent
“They’ve been fantastic with anything you need to approach them about. I had a medical situation and I had a stressful time. The school gave me all the support I needed, just like an extended family. I couldn’t fault anything.” St Thomas Aquinas Parent
“My child finishes at the end of this year. I wish we could stay there longer. I’m so glad we chose to go there. “ St Thomas Aquinas Parent
