Parent Testimonial     

“I love St James because everyone is so welcoming and caring. The loving and safe environment provided by St James gives me so much comfort and the fact that the Principal greets each child by name every morning at the gate is so special and important to me. I feel very supported as a parent at St James, and I know when I say goodbye to my children in the morning that I am leaving them in the best care. I really feel the school lives and practices their motto – every child is known and loved”.
