The last of my three children who all went to this school is now in Year 10. It hasn’t been a very inspiring educational experience for them individually, or our family collectively, but it hasn’t been that bad either.
On the many times I’ve found myself walking under the trees to the front office to collect a broken or sick child, drop off a forgotten swimming bag, or overdue permission note, I’ve been grateful for the trees that sit between the school and the street. It makes the place look less institutional and calmer than it might otherwise.
