School Reviews

We have been blest with fabulous teachers and principals @ GES. We have had some trouble with some of the related arts leaders though. Wonderful afterschool clubs including Drama, Student Council, Art, Running, Broadcasting, Readers and Writers and so on. I have one child currently enrolled in GES, one that has completed and one that will be in the future. Totally recommend!
