A school, as with any community or family, has to be visited if you want to get a feel for its atmosphere, and to know whether it is the right environment for your child. Children should be happy at school. That means that each child should be accepted as the individual that he or she is. It means that they should be supported and encouraged and challenged to achieve their own personal best. It also means that each child should be helped to feel they are an important member of the school community and that they have a significant contribution to make to it. We try to do all these things, and more, for our children at St. Thomas Garnet's.
