From the very first smile at reception to the way a teacher knelt down to welcome our daughter on enrolment day, saying “I hope you’re in my class!” We knew this was a special place. We were welcomed with warmth and sincerity, and our daughter has loved coming to school ever since. The teachers have been outstanding—caring, supportive, and deeply invested in every child’s success. We are grateful for this nurturing community and this school has been a gift to our family.  — Stage 3 parent of Padstow Park Public School
