Horrid

Wow, you cant view or edit or even make a review now because of google and here i am updating and spreading my original post. For the first 3 years of going to this school was fine like school should be with a mix of sport and learning but when I got to the upper grades It felt empty.
The learning wasn't to engaging but there were interesting experiments and learning activities but I've already learnt this stuff from the previous grades and when I tell that we've already done this subject they either ignore me or say we're revising. The staff is pretty mean as well, One of the staff members who helped with medicine and injuries just gave us an icepack and maybe let us sit 10 minutes before sending us back to class. Half of the teachers are nice but all the others constantly get me in trying to get me in trouble but I tell them what I'm doing and 3 quarters of the time they let me go but its like they're targeting me.
My last complaint is the sport time. My reasoning for this is that we go out for sport maybe 1 time a week unless we all absolutely try hard to get 30 minutes of sport. I believe health and fitness is just as important if not more important than learning.
If your Kid loves learning, getting an ice pack after every injury and thinks that health and fitness is way less important than learning and you love cranky staff that target you this might be the perfect school for you.

Update: I am now in high school, and seeing some of my primary peers post a review as well was honestly not surprising. You also might recognize my review. Honestly, the transition was awesome, mainly due to the fact that being educated is fun now. In my POV, an efficient way to teach a child is by using a method to retain the info you just taught, and the formula which is overused and overrated in St Mary’s has been exposed due to my high school. The normal formula goes as this: a slide which has an LI (or Learning Intention for short) and a few questions they want you to be able to understand. On paper, this sounds okay, but since this is overused, it makes lessons predictable, which can lose your attention quite quickly when consistent lessons, which in this case is a bad thing, hell i can barely remember exactly one lesson since all there method of teaching is so bad. Honestly its so un-interesting to listen to teacher who just do the same thing week in week out, which is so much worse when my math teacher is high school uses a true story of one of his students made an ice cream cake for his mum and how it melted since of the tempeture in his bag. Sure i already understood this subject but thats not the point, you see i remembered that, why because its so ordinary having formula as such used in like each lesson+ during primary You ade it entertaining and i remembered it because its better than putting pen to paper whilst your teacher yaps about the same concept you learnt last year but you have to "revise" for what like the 20th time.

1/10, at this point just use yt to teach yourself. An overall horrible time and youll take that away on the first day.
