Reviews | By Parent - 24 Feb 2021, Rate: excellent | Fintona is a wonderful school. My daughter enjoys her time here and also has a very positive learning experience. | | By Student - 05 Nov 2020, Rate: average | So here’s the thing, I truly believe that fintona is an excellent school and has made my life so much better in so many ways. However, the biggest downside to me is that the school has a habit of focusing all its attention on the “gifted” students and neglect the ones that need help a lot of the time. | | By Student - 17 Oct 2020, Rate: excellent | I love fintona, it lead me to meet my best friends and it opened up another side of me, they were there for me when I needed them and I love the fact the school,classroom, is quite small which does put a certain limit on activities. I’ve been at this school for four years this being my fourth and I intend to stay, I read many of the comments by past teachers and possibly students and their parents talking about how they were bullied or they didn’t like fintona, our school has a no bullying policy and we have a counsellor so I don’t think the reason for you leaving fintona should be bullying, and if your unable to stand up for yourself that’s really not the fault of the school. and it is true the size of the school may not suit everyone, but a small classroom and year level has its many benefits such as you get to know almost everyone in the school and you develop close friendships with other students, the teachers here are also most of the time quite nice and they help you with your learning. I just want to say I will always cherish the years I spent at fintona because it’s an amazing school | | >>More reviews... |
