"I am happy to be in this community of strong leaders and many great people. I love this school because it is full of joyful people and many great teachers who inspire me everyday. I love that when I go out to recess the trees and nature are there, the fresh air and all the cool activities. Don't get me started on sports - the gym is wonderful and the PE teachers are great motivators. They help me evolve physically and mentally. There is also a great theatre with many drama opportunities and professionals there to help you. This school is God's masterpiece, one of the best schools that I have been in.
