Westgrove Primary School reviews
16Used to go here from 2014-2018. Kinda trash for the most part but the canteen had dim sims and JJ's and the teachers were great. Big up Mr. Langdon, Mr. Wintels, Mr. Vrettas, and Mrs. Lloyd. I don't know for sure if some of them have left the school but they were amazing inspirations for me.
Learning there was not top notch you learnt and the bullying is insane if you think the teachers will help they will not and they will shut you down whenever you bring it up. If you went there or had to go I'm sorry.
This school is great I loved my time there most of the people were gems, but some were just the worst, but aside from that I loved it the teachers were great and the principal was reasonable and smart, and I made a lot of memores there
My son attends Westgrove Primary and I really can't fault the school at all.
They were so supportive during remote learning this year and last.
Whenever I have had any concerns they have listened and tried their best to address/answer them. The Principals are at the gate each morning welcoming the children when they arrive, which my son loves!
The past is always great. Any year 6's viewing this, i hate you and eternally want you to eat moldy sandwiches.
Used to go to this school from 2012-2014.
It was an alright school, i guess nothing special about it.
Used to go here a long time ago (2003-2009) and I thought the school was really great and I was excited to go to school. Can't say the same for high school. I'm reading some of the reviews here and it makes me sad to hear that it has changed, when I went there the school was amazing. The teachers were also incredible, best one being Mr West who has sadly left. So I can't say how the school currently is, but I loved it when I went there.
I find it hilarious reading the reviews of disgruntled 'I got a chicken burger which I hated'. Westgrove is a fabulous, responsive school. They are completely student-focused and are a real asset to the community. I am proud to be part of the Westgrove 'family' and look forward to many years of partnership with them
Here’s the deal, I forgot my lunch one day.
They made me go to the office, then the canteen,
But they told me they ran out of hot dogs!
So I had to eat a chicken burger, which I didn’t want!
To make matters worse, they told me to pay them back the next day!
NOT MY FAULT I FORGOT MY LUNCH!
The teachers.
Oh buddy boy the teachers!
I forgot how to fraction, which is fine because let’s be honest who really needs fractions?
And my teacher yelled at me and called me worthless just because I forgot how to do one “simple” step in multiplying factions.
I wanted to cry my eyes out.
The teachers shouldn’t behave like this.
Seriously, I just forgot how to do my fractions.
Bullying.
The bullying here SUCKS
When I was a little girl in this school, I got bullied because I had glitter-glow-up shoes from sketches, and the teachers didn’t do anything!
Not to mention the cyberbullying.
Last year, some girls were cyber bullying, and the teachers stalked our instagrams, including the people that weren’t involved.
So they take the cyber bullying to the next level, but they don’t do anything about the traditional bullying!
The assemblies go for ages.
Where do I start? This school was a horrible experience for me. The canteen food was great. The service there wasn't though. Even my older brother had a horrible experience, they threw out his Pokemon cards when he went to take them outside. The ladies that work at first aid are rude and have attitudes. The bullying at this school is horrendous and the teachers are horrible, this school needs to get help also with the classrooms because some are old and smell horrible. I'm sorry but this is all facts. @emily rulz shared a true story and I feel extremely bad for her and that tremendous experience. I'm sorry but this school is a let down, and I wouldn't bring your child here.
My Children went here and I still have one attending. It used to be good a few years ago but lately it has gone downhill. Bullying through the roof. The school talks about how they wont tolerate bullying but don't back it up with action. I know many parents feel dismissed by staff. The hooligans of the school run the show and seem to be pandered too. Very disappointing, used to be good. I plan to pull my child and enroll at another school.
Seven years here and very few good memories. Teachers were amazing and did the best they could but staff leadership did very little to combat bullying in the school.
Most of the teachers are pretty good and have a real passion for teaching, and encouraging students.
The only thing I really dislike about the school is the assemblies!
Two assemblies a week,
that's around 50 minutes a week
missing valuable learning time.
Such a waste!
It's ok, not anything very special. Teachers are encouraging but just not seem to aim things at a certain child's ability. An eSmart school, which is a great hand-on experience for students. Physical Education is greatly encouraged and they push you well. Teachers are very funny but sometimes get carried away. Over all, they're not that bad.
This school and its teachers changed my life. Amazing school, I highly recommend it and it's greatest teacher in my opinion would definitely be Mrs Vlajkov:) Unfortunately I had to move from Victoria at the end of year 5 but I miss this school very greatly.
The school building itself is alright but can be greatly improved. For almost a year, my class room was in the back of the library or in portables moved to the basketball courts. The teachers did very little to help and in some cases, left students to their own devices with both bullying and improving their education. I honestly wish that I went to another school instead of here. Students only received attention if they were falling behind or if they were greatly advanced. If you were stuck in the middle.
Seven years of memory there and very few of them are positive.
