PARENT TESTIMONIALS

“I cannot praise the teachers highly enough. They are beautiful people. It takes a special person to be a teacher and all of them at St Patrick’s possess those special qualities.” St Patrick’s Parent

“We’re not a Catholic family and we’ve been accepted into the community without reservation. There’s never been a point when I’ve thought our opinions didn’t matter because we’re not Catholic. We sent our children there, not because it’s a Catholic school, but because it’s the best school in Gundagai.” St Patrick’s Parent

“I notice my children speak a lot about how we’re all the same. They say it doesn’t matter where you come from or who you are or what you do. Everyone is treated exactly the same way at the school.” St Patrick’s Parent

“There is a lot of compassion and respect. It doesn’t matter who falls over in the playground, there is always someone there to make sure they’re okay.” St Patrick’s Parent
