Testimonials

Pinehurst staff continually receive very positive feedback from parents, professional colleagues, students (past and present) and members of the wider community who find the behaviour of our students exemplary.

"We initially considered Pinehurst after hearing wonderful comments from other parents who had children at the school. On a visit with our son, prior to applying, we were really impressed with the facilities, the teaching staff and the overall feel of the school. Of particular importance was the small class sizes which we believe has a positive impact on Matthew’s learning and his marks and reports reflect this. After his first few months at Pinehurst we asked Matthew what he liked best about the school and he replied “that all the teachers have time for you”. We appreciate that Pinehurst sets high standards not only academically but also in students’ personal development and growth. The teachers are approachable, friendly and always have the students’ best interest at heart.

"Pinehurst School provides our boys with a realistic opportunity to be the very best they can be. This is very important to us. The teachers and support staff are genuinely friendly, focused, realistic and accountable! Our boys are not only getting a better education, but a more personal experience than they would be getting elsewhere."

"Coming to a new country we wanted a school for the girls that would provide a stable and friendly environment while we settled in to our new life. Pinehurst enabled us to place all 3 girls (Bethany 13, Senior College, Lucy 11, Junior College and Emily 5, Junior Primary) on one friendly and family orientated campus which they remain as they move up through their schooling. The Cambridge Syllabus offered by Pinehurst is internationally recognised allowing the girls to go anywhere around the world for further study should they wish to. They have all settled well and we know that if we, or they, have any concerns the staff are very approachable and will do all they can to help."

"We are thrilled with the opportunities Pinehurst has offered our children. Our son has a supportive, caring group of friends; he has embraced the opportunity to become involved in a wide range of sports, trying new things with the confidence that he is doing so in a safe, supportive, co-operative environment. One of the most valuable things we have found is that intelligence is admired and encouraged at Pinehurst. This has allowed Josh's personality to blossom, knowing that he is accepted and valued for how he is. The other thing that has benefitted both children is the work ethic of the school - encouraged to work to the best of their ability and the support that is offered in order to achieve this end. The children have both received support from the teaching staff in the shape of extra tuition, exam revision tutorials and extension classes. We have never regretted the decision to choose Pinehurst for our children and are thrilled with their academic progress."

"Pinehurst has offered our children the ability to nurture their individual talents and we believe Pinehurst has given them a very solid foundation for their future careers. Both our children started at Pinehurst after spending some years in the "State School System" (Olivia in Year 8 and Will in Year 4), so we are fortunate enough to have this perspective when singing the praises of the school. It is a wonderfully caring and nurturing environment and the teaching staff from Primary through to Senior College are 100% committed to the children’s' education and their wellbeing in general. We wouldn't choose anywhere else for our children's education."

 "We have 3 children at Pinehurst with one more due to start soon. All three children are very different and I have been especially impressed with how great Pinehurst teachers have been at recognising the individual strengths, weakness and needs of each child. The teachers keep me well informed as to what is happening at school and are always open and willing to discuss any concerns or queries I may have. Thank you to all staff for providing a fabulous school for our kids! "
