What parents say about our school.

 

‘Sending our children to St.Johns school is such a positive and happy experience for the whole family. Our children have a real sense of belonging in this school. There is such a lovely atmosphere; almost like a family type feeling.  The school is full of kindness from everyone you meet and genuine respect no matter who you are. It is safe to be yourself there; to show your personality and be open about your way of life. The children's strengths are seen and their needs are met with care and sensitivity. The children enjoy learning because of how it is presented to them and linked  to interest and fun. You feel you can really trust all  the staff team as they are all so passionate about their work and highly skilled. There is a richness in the mix of all the children attending and the children accept and discuss each other's differences in a respectful way. Situations and incidents happen with the children as to be expected and the staff support the children to have empathy and to develop skills needed for such moments and life. Thank you’.

‘St.Johns have made it so easy for my child to become part of the school family. They celebrate difference and families from all faiths and none are welcomed with open arms’

‘I would never consider sending my children anywhere else. I went to school here myself and I know the value of the school in the Drumgeely community and the amazing warm atmosphere. My two eldest children were so well prepared for secondary school both academically and in terms of their own personal growth’
