Parent's Feedback

“My child’s time at the school was genuinely wonderful – in fact, they enjoyed it so much that they didn’t want to leave! Every day when they came home, they would eagerly tell me who they had played with and what fun things they did with their classmates. It was so heartwarming to see them so happy and engaged. The students and teachers were all so kind and welcoming, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We have nothing but beautiful memories to look back on.”

“If there is a chance in the future, my child and I will definitely go to visit you at school. Their one-month experience at Northcote High School last year was extremely unforgettable. They often talk about those happy days and are deeply grateful for all the help you provided. Whether it was with their studies or daily life, your guidance and care made their time there warm and meaningful.”

“My child told me that you have been very kind and that your help has made them feel the care and support from the school and teachers towards international students. Although it has only been a short time since the start of the school year, you have always been there to help us with various issues. As a parent who is far away, I am very touched and felt that I must write to express my sincere thanks. As a parent, I have always worried that my child would face many challenges after coming to a new country, especially when starting high school. Your kindness, enthusiasm and patience have given us more confidence to face these challenges together. Once again, thank you and the school for all your help and support!”
