During the year trustees took note of any comments and suggestions made by the parents and children attending the school. They also undertook an anonymous survey which produced positive feedback and revealed that the school is well regarded and valued by parents.
In addition to the formal teaching function of the school, it also serves an important social function in the life of the parents and children who are involved: bringing together people from different backgrounds to enjoy shared experience and culture of a common language.
