Hi, does anyone have children that go to St Michaels if yes would you please give us some feedback on it.

Jacque

Hi there

Two of my three chn attend St Michaels which is a catholic school, not public. Fees vary from $960-$1800 per year, depending on grade and no. of children (the more you have the larger the discount)

All three of my chn have been very happy there, and I've had no real issues with it. Like every school, there's the occasional issue with teachers or policy but nothing dramatic. Are you guys moving out to the Hills anytime soon?

Hi Thanks for the info,

I am hopefully coming out in August/September and my wife and kids will be following probably in November.
My job is based in the Seven Hills area so we will be looking at the hills area for our base.

Hi

The Hills is great area for families to live. I don't know about the school you mentioned, but really in Baulkham Hills, Caslte Hill etc you can't go wrong with schools. They are all decent areas.

Tell your wife if she wan't to meet up for coffee when she gets here, to send me a PM.

Take care

Rudi

Hi,
Funny i came across this forum today!! I was born in Sydney, and lived there until I was 13, then moved to holland and all over Europe. I'm 27 now, but 16yrs ago i was at St Michaels. We lived in B hills for about 10yrs. Finished school there and must say that I had a great time there. After St Michaels i went to Oakhill College in Castle Hill. Also recommended.

Enjoy everything there and a great school.
Dont send them to the public school there!!!!

Hi
Thanks for info, can you please tell me if you think Crestwood would be a good school to go to?

Thanks

I do not know why this poster made this statement because there isn't a bad school in the Hills. I do not have personal experience of Crestwood but I do know people who have sent their children there, a teacher who has taught there and an ex-principal of the school and have not heard a negative comment about it.

Hi

Thanks for reply.
Where do you live? Do you have any children who have been to school in the area, if yes which school did they go to?

I have two children at Crestwood High School, both doing well and I have no complaints about the public school system. As Rudi said you can't really go wrong with any of the schools in this area.
