When I walked into the school I could see a shiny ray of light... it was Mr Hildebrand's five head reflecting into my eyes. Then when I walked into the music room, I saw a guy with extremely tight pants that I thought he was going to get a wedgie... It was Mr Di Nardo. When I was seeing my younger brother Chad playing on the playground I saw that Riley Archer was beating poor Chad up! My poor brother was bruised and he was no longer a gigachad! This school is dangerous and it is like hunger games but in the wild! The office ladies told me I wasn't welcome because my booty was bigger than theirs and they thought I had a BBL! I am ashamed to say that I worked in this ugly school full of white kids that don't know how to shower! Shake my head I hope Mrs Adamson or whoever is there goes extinct!

The education is average, the teachers provide help to those who need it in maths. However, the teachers mainly focus on the people that need help rather than the people that are too good at the work sheets. it seems the advanced learners have to do the easy stuff some students need help with. The teachers help with issues, now and then. Overrall, the school is okay because of the average learning and the mental health and wellbeing they provide. Plus the assistant principal is strict which helps the students behave more naturally. (Only for primary part of the school)

was at this school for 10 years. WOW what a school given me heaps of opportunity and will always look back at the best memories there. I was given the opportunity to be school captain and hope one day i can go work there. I would reccomend every single studen to go here because of how diverse and fair they are

The worst school I have come across they are not supportive at all of the child's needs. My son can't read or write! I've asked for many assessments to be done with NO RESULT...
They Just keep putting him up per year!! Don't send your child to this school! Or dO so at the risk to your child receiving a descent education!

This school is okay but they didn’t deal when my child got kidnapped and the principal did it was the polices job. She doesn’t even try

I like how the school has sports academy, I think its really good and how they have prefesional coaches to train the kids who got into sports academy. It goes from years 5 - 9 and go to competions against other schools. The sports are Netball, Basketball, AFL and Soccer, they also have a music academy and STEM

This school is okay. I do like the fact that there are a lot of areas for our specialist and how they have a lot of areas to play in. I feel like what's missing form this school is the way they handle bullying I feel like whenever a student tells a teacher about their problems they don't do anything. I feel like if they did something really bad they should call the child's parents. My friend she actually broke her bone from this kid who kicked her hard and she finds it difficult to move. I dont think the teacher did a lot except just moving the kid away from my friend but yet he still is annoying and is starting to aim at me. Also i would like to mention that whenever we do sport if you dont catch the ball the kids start bullying you and the teacher doesnt do much. This school says their wellbeing is good but to be honest they are lying. If you consider to choose this school it could be an option but if your kid gets bullied its best to move them, thank you for taking the time to read

I have sent my two boys there since prep. They are now in year 4. I have been very happy with the school. I have found the teachers helpful and caring. There have been some minor bullying and when I have approached the teachers or school about the issues. They have gone out of their way to deal with the situation and help resolve the problem. My boys love going to school and love their teachers. More than happy to send my kids there.

never enroll your child in this miserable horrible school! Its not a good place. There is so many wrong things about this school. I was bullied 24/7 at this school and I never found friends. People are always made fun of with disability and the teachers are so dumb and idiotic that they cannot comprehend the fact that students in their class and highschools drink energy drinks and sell drugs. And Its horrible!!!! any parent reading this review please take in consideration and dont put your child through hell just because of the price and look of it! I was in year 6 and I had so much depression and anger management problems that my family were going wild over all my complaints!! SUE THIS PLACE!

This school is terrible. The teachers are completely oblivious to the levels of each student and fail to ensure that the students are progressing. It is hard to tell whether it just this school in particular or an outcome of the "everyone gets a trophy" mentally which plagues our education system.
If you want your child to learn half of the bare minimum this is the school for them.

I went to this school and there was a kid selling weed at the back of the school n most high school teachers were stoned out of their minds like their eyes were red af they told me to be a sub i had no expirence and they did not care less they just said follow the sheet that the teacher gave you all the kids had anger issues or they were just stoned out of their minds. When i was yard duty i saw a year 9 hitting on an year 6 yes a year 6! and most kids are all sooks thats the end of my story about being a sub P.S there are shit stains everywhere!

I’m so nervous bcoz I moved to berwick n enrolled my kids in this school but most of the students have hanger issues and teachers r not taking serious kids homework.

By Student - 04 Sep 2018, Rate: good

the primary part great its big has great teachers but a few are a bit mean and have favs . A big libary and great music art & PE rooms but sometimes the art teacher gets way to into the AFL . Im not in high school yet but most of the high school area is tacken by the gym and canteen ( Great canteen by the way ) The school has a little problem with bullys and it looks like the high school only has two classes thats not alot . The teachers are welcoming . And we have websites like word / power point & litercy planet / spellodrome & mathletics wich are pretty much one whole thing but not . i like the school :D

i'm not able to be provided with any extra support.
the staff do not help with problems and they can't stand support bullying and make such a big deal about bullying yet they don't do anything about the kids that are getting bullied. the teachers are disrespectful and give up on kids a lot. they favourite pupils. i have attended Timbarra since Prep and i am currently in year 6. It's boring and the kids that go there are ferrel. They have foul language. I disliked this school a lot. I recently had a trial for a sports academy and got in. My parents said that if I didn't get in, Timbarra is the high school I will attend until year 10. (The high school only has years 7, 8, and 9.) I was more than happy when I realised I will not have to spend some of my high school years in a school that provides no help, has bad staff and lets bullying occur. I suggest that you work on this because Timbarra is just...it's not good and this is coming from a 12 year old girl. My parents were starting to get annoyed with the school and myself because I was always taking days of school complaining that I was "sick" or that we had a "day off" when I was just lying! I'm going into high school next year and they won't help me with my math. I have asked for a math support group or extra help with math during recess/lunch. I have suggested to give up my recess to learn math because I am going to a private school. A sports academy. if you don't excel in your learning/classes, you are not allowed to train (do your sports you tried out for) and I really meed help. This school was not exactly my cup of tea.
