Parent Testimonials

We are truly grateful to be part of the Holy Family School community. Since joining the school, we’ve seen wonderful growth in our children—not just academically, but also in their confidence and independence. The nurturing environment, caring teachers, and strong sense of community have made a real difference in our family’s journey.

Holy Family has provided a safe and supportive space where our children feel they belong and are encouraged to be their best selves. The school’s values and commitment to student well-being are evident in every interaction, and we deeply appreciate the way the staff partners with families to help each child thrive.

Thank you for creating such a welcoming and enriching place for our children to learn and grow. (Chairat, 2025)

As a parent of a child who has just started kindergarten in 2025, we cannot speak highly enough of our experience with Holy Family Catholic Primary School. From the very beginning, the school has made us feel not just welcomed, but truly supported as a family.

The feedback we receive as parents is exceptional—it’s timely, constructive, and always focused on helping our child grow both academically and personally. We feel genuinely involved in his learning journey, and that transparency has built a strong sense of trust between us and the school.

The community feel is something truly special. There’s a warmth and inclusiveness that permeates everything the school does. Whether it’s morning greetings, school events, or casual chats at drop-off or pick-ups, there’s a real sense of belonging that makes Holy Family feel like an extension of our home.

The parent group is another standout feature. It’s active, welcoming, and incredibly supportive. We’ve connected with other families, shared experiences, and found a network of people who care deeply about the well-being of all children at the school.

Perhaps most importantly, the support we receive as parents has been transformative. The school doesn’t just focus on the child—it educates and empowers us as parents too. From workshops to resources and one-on-one guidance, we’ve learned so much about how to help our son thrive. It’s a partnership, and we feel incredibly grateful to be part of it.

Thank you, Holy Family, for creating such a nurturing and inspiring environment. We’re excited for the journey ahead and feel truly blessed to be part of this community. (Maya and Shahin, 2025)

I’m so grateful my child attends Holy Family. From day one, we’ve felt the warmth of a caring, calm, and close-knit community. My child feels truly valued and nurtured, receiving quality education and attention that’s often missing in today’s schools.

What I love most is that the school holds high academic standards without creating anxiety. Learning is purposeful and engaging, helping children build both confidence and capability.

The faith-based learning provides a strong moral foundation, grounding children in values that matter. Programs like the 7 Habits are equipping my child with lifelong skills such as resilience, empathy, and the ability to reflect deeply when things go wrong. Instead of punishment, they are encouraged to pause, look inward, and write about what they have learnt. It is a thoughtful and growth-focused approach to high quality education.

In a world that is changing faster than ever, the knowledge we teach today may be less relevant tomorrow. But strong habits, values, and self-awareness will always remain essential, event more so. As someone in a leadership role, I often see young professionals with excellent academic results who still struggle to reach their potential because they lack these deeper foundations. That is why I value what Holy Family is building so sincerely. It’s the kind of foundation I’ve always hoped for my child, not just building knowledge, but shaping character that will last a lifetime. (Mita, 2025)

Our daughter moved to Holy Family just over three weeks ago and we’ve been absolutely thrilled by the support from all the kids, families and teachers. As a parent, I’ve really appreciated the organisation of the school and parent community. For our daughter, I know she’s benefited hugely from the better structure and routine at the school. We’ve seen really positive changes at home. We’ll be enrolling her younger sister too! (Peter, 2020)

By far the best school we have seen around the area. Friendly staff and my son in Kindergarten have improved on his vocabulary and mathematics so much. Every day kids can be dropped off to staff in the morning and picked up in the afternoon via a drive-through.

Online Canteen menu also very healthy and interesting my son never gets bored of it. School is quite up to date with their technology where updates and news are updated daily.

From what I have witnessed no doubt I will be sending my second child there for sure figures cross Mrs Findlay will be there when my daughter is ready! We love you Holy Family Lindfield! Keep up the great work you are a strong Team! (Jackson, 2020)

A great little school with a big community spirit. The kids are very respectful and kind to each other and the teachers are very receptive to queries when raised.

I would recommend this school if you are looking for a small school with good pastoral care and lots of opportunities for extra curricular activities connected to the school e.g. tennis. (Valentina, 2020)

My son started kindy this year and he is extremely happy and always looks forward to going to school. The teachers, Principal, staff and parents especially are extraordinary! They truly represent what Holy Family is all about!

Our family has met and become friends with amazing parents we may have never met without coming to Holy Family Lindfield. It’s a great, safe & nurturing school with lots of opportunities for our son to grow and shine! We’d highly recommend Holy Family in a heartbeat. (Olivia, 2020)

I couldn't recommend Holy Family more highly. Two of our three daughters (with our 3rd daughter attending next yr), are students and they absolutely love it....as do we! The staff are so invested in the children, a principal who couldn't love the kids more, and a sensational parent body. We could not be happier.

If you're thinking of sending your child to Holy Family, please do. You won't be disappointed. It's the best investment we've ever made for our family. (Michael, 2020)

We have had the most wonderful experience with Holy Family primary school in Lindfield. Our daughter has grown in knowledge and spirituality as the educators really get involved with care, determination and approachable way. It’s quite personalized which makes it easier for kids to learn according to their own needs. Additionally, ethics and values are embedded with academics creating great little human beings. Definitely highly recommended primary school. (Andrea, 2020)

We recently joined Holy Family Catholic Primary School Lindfield as kindy parents. We could not be happier about the service and support the school has given us as a family. The Principal, the teachers and the staff in general are very approachable and always happy to help. They care for each kid and we appreciate this. My kids are very happy to go to school. They just love it! It is very rewarding seeing your kids excited about going to school.

Kids have learned so much! I love that everyone cares for each other. Kids are respectful and responsible learners, and this has become the rule at home for us. It is a very nurturing and caring school.
We have also met wonderful parents from the community. We thank the school for welcoming and for supporting us. We look forward to this exciting school journey! Thanks Holy Family! (Norah, 2020)
