Does anyone have any view or comments about this school? We live in Cherrybrook and kids go to John Purchase school.
Not sure if is a wise move to change school for them.
I heard the teacher/student ratio is quite high which means sufficient attention for each individual student. But acedemically, John Purchase seems to outrank the other one.
any opinion is welcomed.

I just knew a Chinese mum who moved her daughter from a public school to this christian school. Her daughter is currently in year 1. According to this mum, she's very happy about everything - small class size, school culture, individual development etc. I would suggest you to do a bit research and contact school directly. It's always worthy to talk to the principle and have a tour, in order to find a suitable school for your own child.
BTW, can u tell why u are considering to change school? A bit curious to know about John Purchase.

Thank you for your advice and that sounds quite positive.
So far, we are not left highly impressed by John Purchase. Frankly speaking, it could just because we have high expectation for the school our kids go. I find it is an overall decent school but it might not suitable for my daughter who just needs a bit more one to one attention to boost her confidence and self esteem.
But for kids who are naturally outgoing and confident, we would still recommend John Purchase. It is quite competitive and acedemic oriented.

What makes you consider this small christian school? To be honest, I didn't even notice this school until this mum told me about it, even i'm living not too far from it!
I can check with this mum to see if she likes to share some experience with you.

Do you know the the Hills Adventist school in castle hill? Close to the castle tower. I have been to the school tour a few weeks before , it is a nice little Christitian school. But we still considering. We also went to the Pacific hills Christitian school in dural. This school seems have better facilities and other programs like music, art and sports. We still deciding stay in current school or one of above schools.

我就住附近，听到的都是好的评价，唯一就是学校人少一年级一个班。

Wahroonga adventist 学校，正在扩建成从prep-yr12的14年制学校。你的孩子如果入明年入小学kindy的话，可以一直读到yr12。2-3年后，这个学校将有第一个yr7的班机。
这个学校今年kindy有2个班，每个班人人数都是20以下。所以lz提到的师资和学生的比例充沛这是正确的。
这个学校目前prep,kindy,yr1,yr2,y3在原来地方，因为医院的扩建，高年级--yr6搬去了隔壁wahroonga church旁边一个空地。是demontable的教室。一切都是临时的。
如果你的孩子已经四五年级了，就表考虑此学校了，高中是等不到。你孩子如果现在还是childcare的年龄。那么等你孩子入学的时候，这个学校已经有了高中部，几年以后，14年制的3幢教学大楼都将完工，这将是wahroonga里最新设施最完备的教会学校了。这个学校唯一的“缺点”是相当白（可能有些人喜欢），一个年级黑头发不会超过2-3个，这2-3中个，还有相当一部份的父母已经是ABC的。真正讲华语的孩子，整个学校我没有见过超过5个。
Hills adventist school我也了解。小学部从prep一直到Year 4,总共6年制。从Year 5到Year12在kellyville，这个学校的排名不如wahroonga adventist。前者100名以内，后者200名以内。
读者2所学校的家长，大多不会冲着排名去的。学校也不鼓励不惜，尤其wahroonga adventist学校，很传统的白人教会学校。非常友好。学费也不贵，一年4-5千。
不知道整个学校新校舍造好以后，会不会涨价。
wahroonga fox valley rd这片有着20年的规划，医院扩建，医院外面还将建造很多townhouse还有这所新的14年制的学校。
我很看好这片的房子哈。不过本来就已经贵得可以的了。

好区，我鬼佬同事住那，当初买房时强烈推荐给我过，说那个区的几个学校都很好。不知道是不是一定信教才能入学？

Thanks everyone. I think we will arrange a school tour soon.

信教不是必须的。
