Parent and Student Reviews of Boarding Schools in Brisbane

  • In 2021 we found H Farm International School thanks to Worldschools. It was love at first sight. We left our beautiful Castellammare di Stabia to embrace the project of raising our two children Chloe and Ruben in an international environment, surrounded by greenery with a strong vocation for entrepreneurship and innovation. After 3 years we are happy with the choice motivated by the jumps of joy of the children who want to go back to school, as soon as they have left it. Thank you Worldschools, Thank you H Farm

  • 4.I know the Krumbach school in Austria where my niece Anne Princess GAKIZA, orphan of father and mother studies. This school takes care of all her needs (school fees, travel and accommodation, health care and insurance, ect. ..) and develop the child’s talents. As legal guardian, I am very delighted to have my niece in Krumbach school and I would recommend this school without a second thought…The orphan has a wonderful time at school with excellent relationships and attention, love and adequate education. In addition to her strong open-mindedness in the scientific field, she is learning several languages ​​which is also a very pleasant tool to start for a long subsequent journey of study and learning!
    The school allows also for very organized control of the behavior and needs of students in a more specific and personalized way.
    I would like to thank all the staff and educational leaders of the school for the period already spent by my niece at Kumbrach school and the quality/service that was provided.
    An exceptional school attentive to the specific needs of children, in a wonderful environment for children to learn and develop their creativity.
    The school’s strong points are the maintenance of permanent liaison with parents, the communication of informations which trace the activities carried out by the children as well as the academic results of each term. You know it’s a good school when your child can’t wait to return at the end of the holidays.

  • Our son is in his third year at the school. And we can already form an opinion about everything.
    The first thing that sticks in the mind is the location: a castle on a mountain in the middle of the forest with an inexpressible view and always fresh air.
    Secondly, the daily routine and hygiene in everything is observed with Austrian pedantry.
    Third, the offices, lodging and recreation rooms, library, are modern and comfortable.
    Fourth, the new sports ground, bicycles, contribute to the physical development of students.
    Fifth, the kitchen, it deserves special praise. Diverse, full, healthy food. Special thanks for the days of cuisines of different nations. Pupils not only familiarize themselves with the dishes of the world, but also actively participate in their preparation.
    The sixth is collective, creative work. Joint productions of plays, cognitive visits to museums, theaters, exhibitions, movies, concerts. Annual outings for skiing and skating in winter, hiking in summer and tourist trips to European countries. This is a topic for a separate comment.
    And, finally, the seventh is the main thing. Educational process. Bilingualism! Education is a two-way process, teacher – student. The approach to the selection of teachers is serious. Not every teacher is able to be enthusiastic about his subject, complex to teach simply, while maintaining the subordination. It works here.
    There are no perfect schools, as well as people. The administration solves force-majeure circumstances, nuances in requirements, difficulties in adaptation of teenagers and young men (at the expense of their moral and physical health) skillfully, keeping the spirit of the school and the priority of education.
    We are sincerely grateful to all those who work, bring up, educate our son, showing him respect.

The most pleasant of it all is seeing the relaxing smiles, confident faces, healthy bodies, and learn all about the many adventures … including our son & daughter, who are 8821km away from us.

  • Ranum Efterskole College cannot be described in brief! We are so impressed with the great work that was done for our girls. All teachers and staff are at work from day one, they are all so happy, positive and helpful, and it lasted all year long. I am wildly impressed by the contact group teacher who took good care of our girls. I was at ease, even though we live abroad.
