Testimonials

Being part of a tight knit community gives our students a sense of belonging from an early age. This is what some of our parents have to say about St John Vianney’s Primary School - Waramanga.

“SJV is the best school if you want to be more than just a number.” – SJV parent 

“My daughter has really loved the Religion element and has joined the choir; she’s singing all the time! She’s really come out of her shell and is committing to new things. She loves all the extra classes and activities that SJV offer.” – SJV parent 

“We started in a local Government school and moved to SJV. I never thought I’d see the day that my son wanted to be at school. At SJV, he has learnt that his dyslexia isn’t going to stop him from learning. The school encourages him to get involved in group work in ways that suit his learning style. He has found ways that he can contribute despite dyslexia and still be an asset in the classroom.” – SJV parent 

"A huge thank you for carrying our girls so gently through their primary school years.  Our daughters have had beautiful journeys with you at SJV. The friends they have made, the memories they have built and the morals they have learnt will stay with them - and us - forever.

These early formative years are so important, and it has been with the love, dedication, patience, and compassion you have shown over the past 8 years that will carry our girls into the next phase of their young lives.  The SJV community is one we have been proud to be a part of and the changes and improvements to the school have been constant and inspiring.

Thank you for all the classes, all the grading, all the lunch duties, all the prayers, all the concerts, all the camps, all the sport, all the ice packs, all the excursions and most of all .... all of your time, talent and love.

We will miss you SJV" -  SJV parent
