Hello!

I’m some primary school recommendations on the Gold Coast, in the Mermaid Waters area please! And also some idea of schools to perhaps avoid and why… My son will be starting prep next year and we’ve just moved up from Melbourne, and really have no idea… Thank you.

  • My School website would be a good start for you, it has a lot of info on it.


  • A friend of mine had her daughter in Labrador for prep and ended up changing schools because she was getting picked on at school and the teachers didn’t do anything about it plus their learning techniques were different as they weren’t up to the same stuff other schools in prep term were doing like sight words or home readers. Hope that helps.
