I went to this school in the early 70’s, there were 4 students in my age group, i have mixed feelings about my time here, in one hand I made many friends and loved being in the country, unfortunately i clashed with the headmaster so was treated to regular corprol bunishment, I did get used to the pain but the fear itself became overhelming so i would get dropped off only to walk to a farm i knew and work there during the last few months of my last year, yes i wasnt the best student and most probably deserved it, I hope things are better there now, I think of the good times I had, its just sad that one person took away some of it.
Absolutely putrid. Favouritism here is high, staff is rude, uses AI generated art, teacher’s always have typo’s. Never come here.
You learn literally nothing at this school. Kids spend most time on the iPads. Favouritism is definitely huge here aswell.
NEVER COME HERE! This place out of it’s 4 staff doesn’t even teach people properly.
Don’t let these other reviews fool you. This school is a great school and was heaps of fun. The teachers are real nice and everyone there is friendly. The intermediate section is a great build up to high school and you won’t struggle one bit. The teachers teach well and try their best to keep all students fit and healthy. If you want your child to have fun, do well in school, and make heaps of friends then this is the school for you. I spent eight years there and do no regret it one bit.
