Ellerslie School

I've been here for 8 years and this school is amazing, the activities are increadible like camp, oh and the the food they serve on kindo is great! The sercurity may not be that good but still is decent. but the outdoor enviroment is beautiful, the acorn patch, field and more it wonderful, the indoor enviroment is increadibly joyful with laughter and educational learning, the school information is great here, I am a year 8 student giving this review, this school has made my 8 years of living into a joyful life full of supportive friends, teachers that help you anytime, i recomend kids to go to this school it is amazing.

I feel like the school is very low when it comes to students being rude and shows no "disapline this is very sad beacuase the spelling barely teaches students and I don't even learn anything in most of the subjects please take your kid somewhere else when they can go to a "primeary" school

Staff are bias, raysyct, and jujmentel to pupils, on an educational level this affects students of other ethnicities. This school barely tutors, especially spelling, as a student, look at how I spelt “raysyct” or “jujmentel” , this school apparently is a decile 9 school, but i don’t see how it could accive that, if they really want to accive that title Ellerslie got to step up their game.

As a student who started in year 1 and left at year 8. This school was very poor in education. The implementation of the "Pod" system only furthered the lack of proper education in its students. Teachers now have to handle more kids then they can handle. The classrooms felt like a community while the Pods dont. This left me being constantly distracted in class due to the lack of discipline for certain students or me not learning anything due to the teachers needing to yell at misbehaving students 99% of the time. I went into year 9 in college with barely any knowledge about maths or science as Ellerslie school barely teaches these subjects well. I couldn't even understand the basic foundations of these subjects as I was never taught about it. I implore parents to please take their children to another primary school that can provide better education.
