"Due to our
family moving around New Zealand, St Brigid's is the fourth
Catholic Primary School we have experienced. I was
initially impressed with how friendly, approachable and
caring the staff and parents were towards new families. My
three children settled very quickly."
|
-
"In a short
period of time the teachers had identified my children's
academic strengths and weaknesses. Objectives were set with
us, which gave direction with homework."
|
-
"My
children are very happy at St Brigid's. I believe it is a
reflection on how staff truly care about the children they
educate."
|
-
"I was a pupil
at St Brigid's between 1995 and 2000, and appreciate the
care the teachers put in to create a well rounded, safe
school community with a focus on the importance of education
and personal faith. I believe that St Brigid's set me up
with an excellent basis for the social skills and desire to
learn I have now." - Emma Penman, Deputy Head Girl,
Kavanagh College 2007

- "Thank you for a
wonderful afternoon on Friday. I thoroughly enjoyed
your celebration of work you had been doing around Maori and
Samoan culture. I thought the children were confident
and skilled in their presentation. There had obviously
been a lot of hard work and learning gong on prior to
Friday!! Congratulations to you all." - Doris
Lancaster, New Zealand Curriculum Facilitator, University of
Otago College of Education 2010
