Reviews
"Our 7 year old daughter attends Glenferrie Primary School, and we are very happy. It is an International Baccalaureate school, which in addition to many other benefits, also attracts top-talent teachers. There is a lot of focus on social aspects, which is especially important for children born abroad (like our daughter). The teachers also use lots of humour, technology and innovative teaching techniques, which is helpful. The school has a diverse student population, and parents are happy to get involved and contribute. Parents also often hang around school when picking up kids, which strengthens the community. As it is a very small school (the smallest we found around Hawthorn), service is personal, and it won't be a cliche to say that all staff members know our names. We also think that the school performed exceptionally well under the lockdowns last year, with teachers taking their responsibility very seriously. Lastly, the principal Mrs. O'Sullivan is straight to the point, which we really appreciated when attending the school tour. She promptly approaches the parents community with issues important to the school, and we always feel that we are "in the loop". ... And don't forget to watch the great videos that the school produces from time to time. Those are like time capsules :-) The latest is posted on the school homepage."
"This school has minimal bullying, lots of great facilities (although the water fountain was a bad idea) and most of the teachers were really nice. The Assist. Principal was awesome but the current principal is disliked by nearly everyone there. I feel as if the staff should pay more attention to the students wishes, as they aren't trying to get rid of uniform or ban maths class or anything. Most of the teachers genuinely care about their students and it promotes an overall happy learning environment. Most of the IB programme is a waste of time and money, including 'key concepts', 'key ideas' which just tell you to demonstrate traits you should be displaying anyway."
"My daughter is at this school. After we arrive to Australia she had bad experience at child care, but when she went to school she absolutely love it. I've never heard about any bulling, never complain about teacher. Also I would like to mention before and After School Care OshClub which is amazing. And lastly for 3 years now my daughter never complain that he dont want to go to school except those days when she didn't wanted to wake up :)"
"I love this school! The teachers are nice apart from 2 but this school is a really good school. Crossing guard is mean. I would reccomend this school just dont cross the road with the crossing guard! Miss Parlour is the best teacher because her kids are very nice. 7 11 has the best slupress. And the owner is really nice."
"Great school. Amazing. Never felt pressured or bullied, teachers help you whenever you need help. teachers assess your work and set goals for you according to that. Very organised too"
