Parkview Pārua

I tried to get my kids in anywhere but here, but this was the only school we were in zone for. Turns out I shouldn’t have listened to the typical Christchurch school snobbery as Parkview has been fantastic for my two kids and knowing what I know now, I would hands down pick this school over the other options in our area. Some really great teachers here, with a young enthusiastic staff who have brought out the best in both of my kids.

My daughter spent 2 terms at this school and I couldn’t get her out of there fast enough! Unbelievably rude teachers, office staff and principal.

Overall my child is doing well and is at/above a level that she should be. I think its is not as good as it could be with home contact. There is no athletic sports (that I've seen) and for the cross country they have the choice if they do it or not. These things should be compulsory and they should have to give it a try. There could always be more fundraising days too with mufty days etc too.
