Third school for my child after horrible experiences with bullying at other schools. This school has been great, the learning support and overall support has been amazing. My child has been there for three years and every year, the teachers he has had, go above and beyond. They provide a lot of additional activities for the children. I believe the school fees are fair and reasonable.

My son has just started this school this year, I have found the staff great and encouraging
My son is a high achiever and he chose this school as his previous high school concentrated mainly on sports and their academic programs were not good
So far we're really happy with this school

Facilities for high school are good, but they don't invest any of the exorbitant fees into the primary school. The playground has been the same for years and it's not good.
There is a bullying issue at the school that they think earning behavioural "pie" pieces will fix but the worst part is that the Teachers are bullies also - calling year 1 students out for not knowing the answer to a question in front of the class etc.
The school has gone downhill since Covid with no support offered during lockdowns, just pieces of workbook paper offered & no online learning - the local public school was better prepared and offered more. They have high teaching staff turnover and the communication and organisation of anything at this school is non-existent.
They only care about the money and how the school looks from the outside.

I attended this school for several years and they have one interest and one interest only - their wallets. The schools only interest is in "the business" (making a profit). Do not send your kids here as there is no telling what the school will do to ensure they get a profit.

They spend all of their money on upgrading the junior school and leave the senior school with outdated buildings and bad technology for learning.

Rivermount college is a quality learning environment that I am proud to call my school. I have attended three schools and this is by far the best. Although there are one or two teachers that I personally think are not very good, the teachers over all are very supportive and know what they are talking about. The grounds are superb, like no other school. Students are encouraged to bring their own devices for online learning which I think is an excellent idea because the future is undoubtedly tech-savvy. Rate : 9/10
