Great school! Growing up and going there every morning, i found that this school was much smaller and better than others in the area. This school has great values and student behaviour is great! They encourage equality and have many fun excursions for the students to attend. However, the toilets may need a little more care...

We have just finished our first year with Penders Grove and I could not speak more highly of the school and of the teaching staff. Being a small school there are many opportunities for all children. The art show, dancing and music performances were all wonderful. I find Douglas, the principle, to be very approachable and open to ideas and input.
