What parents have to say about our School

Blue Gum has done a great job of wrapping around my child, and she is flourishing because of it. The school community is warm and friendly, and she loves coming every day.

BGMS Parent

The teachers all put so much into the classes and we are very lucky to have such a great staff group. Seeing progress on the playground space is wonderful.

BGMS Parent

The Junior Primary staff are an amazing group of individuals. The dedication, patience and compassion they bring to BGMS is a true asset to the school.

BGMS Parent

OSHC is a big change! Love all the staff at OSHC for this year.

BGMS Parent

The regular busy bees have helped us to feel more connected to the school community during the year, and it has been great to see some attention being paid to improving the gardens and grounds of the school.

BGMS Parent

After-School Classes are wonderful, well organised.

Clear and transparent communication from the Principal and Board. Thanks!

Generally satisfied with things so far this year.  Glad to see progress on the Upper Primary play area.

Overall I think everyone is very approachable, friendly and helpful.

My son has had a great learning experience through Middle Primary, and the opportunity to participate at One Big Voice with the Blue Gum Choir was fabulous – something he’ll never forget.

BGMS Parent

In many respects the experience has improved in 2023 and I feel that the school has a brighter future as long as educator consistency can be managed. Communications have improved considerably.

BGMS Parent

Love how the Principal is so approachable, listens to suggestions and truly make positive changes to the school. Also love how there’s more collaboration between parents, teachers and Principal for the wellbeing of each child.

BGMS is a small and comfortable community which makes my child feel happy and enjoy. The Principal is friendly and nice and we can see changes have happened. Keep moving forward.

Having Ross the new principal in 2023, BGMS feels consistently progressing in all areas. I noticed a big improvement in OSHC with Val leading the team, OSHC is well organised in 2023.

BGMS Parent

My child has been very happy here and has been making continuous progress.

BGMS Parent

Great work from the Principal and staff for the improvements, increased engagement, communication and fixing CCS.

I can see improvement. Seeing the Principal around at start and end of day who is personable and friendly helps with community. Progress with Upper Primary play area also good and essential for students.

BGMS Parent

It’s always been a wonderful caring and bright environment for our children. We really appreciate the hard work done by the teachers and the team.

BGMS Parent

Teaching quality and level of care has been outstanding. New Principal seems really good.

BGMS Parent

We’re so glad that we have met the teachers with love and care. We appreciate the lifelong learning for our kids in Blue Gum. Our children loved going to school from Day 1 and the shining we see from their eyes are what we’re so proud to be one of this community.  We want to see what the future brings the school and all the positive and uplifting sides to be continue grow.

BGMS Parent

I love that my child is able to work above grade level where she excels, and is supported (sometimes even working below grade level) in other areas where she has difficulty. All in the same classroom! We love BGMS!

BGMS Parent

Kids enjoy the school and their friends. Great parents and community, I feel that the community vibe is improving after COVID.

BGMS Parent

Great instruction.

BGMS Parent

I liked the School Sports Carnival.

BGMS Parent

We had the best experience at BGMS. Thank you.

BGMS Parent

Our student has thrived at Montessori. Her individual strengths have been developed. Self-discipline has improved.  It’s been a happy learning environment. Thank you!

BGMS Parent

I feel any concern I have has been taken seriously and listened to.

BGMS Parent

Things have improved astronomically since the new Principal arrived.

BGMS Parent

I can’t speak highly enough of the caring, professional and engaging staff we’ve interacted with to-date.

BGMS Parent

Love our school. Big thank you to all of the staff and to Ross who has come in with such a positive and fresh set of eyes. Thank you for all that you do for our kids.

BGMS Parent

Massive changes of school dynamic and communication. Clearer direction of the school which is well appreciated.

BGMS Parent

It’s been great so far and had a very positive impact on our child and as he settles in he’s become more confident and loves going to school.

BGMS Parent

Loving the community spirit!

BGMS Parent

Caring and community vibe. My daughter loves it.

BGMS Parent

Our child loves school and his class. The opportunity to do many jobs and not be locked into a year level has been a positive benefit.

BGMS Parent

Really enjoy the community at BGMS and the care for students experienced to date.

BGMS Parent

Love the new ensemble for violin.

BGMS Parent

Ross has been such a force for good in the school. He obviously brings some much needed leadership and positive direction. He is very visible and approachable for parents and students and sets the right tone in assemblies. Also the extra effort that Kama went to for the One Big Voice concert was excellent – the kids did amazing and I just want to call out that Kama is always fantastic with the kids.

BGMS Parent

We realised big improvements within only 3 weeks. The teachers are caring and open towards students.

BGMS Parent

We have a child at each stage of the school and every week I hear something they have done that makes me glad they are at Blue Gum.

BGMS Parent

Can see the real positive behaviour in my son due to the school.

BGMS Parent

Ross is a great principal and he made a great difference. I like the Montessori method and the fact that Blue Gum places more emphasis on the quality of the teaching than the facilities (it’s be great to have both but if there has to be a trade-off, then quality of teachings all the way).

BGMS Parent

The whole vibe of the school has changed this year. It is much more positive and seems to be a more supportive place. We really appreciate how Ross interacts positively with parents and children and the Year 6 reflection and transition trip to Rottnest is a really thoughtful way to end primary school.

BGMS Parent

Great vibes.

BGMS Parent

We’ve had great interactions with parents and teachers alike.

BGMS Parent

Salute to all teachers and staff for providing great quality of caring, dedications and education to our children.

BGMS Parent

 

We are happy to see that the spare lot is getting used and will become a play area.

BGMS Parent

This year has been a complete turnaround. So great to see the effort from Ross to be visible and involved, he clearly had an interest in making the school a great place, it has so much potential. The education is exceptional, when I compare what my son is doing at an academic level to his peers and the freedom his has in the classroom I’m so glad we stayed. We feel so lucky to have the support of our classroom teacher and EA. Please continue to look after your great teachers.

BGMS Parent

 

Staff take in parents’ feedback positively and always helpful in nurturing kids to find their voice and pathway to grow. BGMS provides a positive environment for them.

BGMS Parent

Love the programs and events. Thank you to all staff for your hard work.
