😠 Not impressed - the staff were very rude (especially the receptionist).

    So not worth the school fees!! Many addition costs too! I would look elsewhere and spend the money on private tutoring one on one!Too much focus on sport. School drop off and pick ups are a nightmare. Keilor campus... one way in, one way out. Keep away!

    Thought this was a decent school to go to until the new principal came in and decided that anyone that isn't 100% Straight & also able-bodied (no disabilities) should be kicked out of the school or made so uncomfortable that they're forced to leave themselves. Update: I'd like to add how disgusted I am in how the school now works in terms of communication when questioned on their new set of morals, they'd rather block and remain silent than actually answer any questions regarding the subject.

    Absolute Disgust! as an ex student this has to be the biggest waste of money, Public Schools can do the same job and better for much less the expensive costs

    This is an awesome school, great communication between school and parents and both my children are being supported and doing well. New Middle school campus is fantastic

    This school is not the best and that's the full truth. if your looking for a school in the area then hands down go here it has decent students and facilities. school fees are defiantly to high for what you get and the school puts to much time in co-curricular activities and lack teaching basic knowledge. If you are behind in your learning the school doesn't have the guts to tell you until your older and then its to late to start getting on top. teachers are 50/50 you will really only find a small amount who really put in the work outside of class. when I was at Overnewton there was only 2 teachers who truly did care about how I did and wanted me to do better. punishments are to strict ranging from Saturday working bees for not wanting to do athletics to getting a bill home for wearing the wrong socks. assemblies are so pointless due to the irrelevant things they talk about. if your looking for again in this area this is for sure the place to go but otherwise I wouldn't spend to much money without getting something back.

    This review is for Mr John Settle, the English teacher and Uni-courses coordinator. He is a wise, trusted, amazing and really helpful man who both me and my son (Roy) never forget him. I appreciate all of his done to support my son to go to Uni and be accepted in his favorite course. I only recommend him for your children to consult.

    Absolute and utter garbage, COULD NOT GET WORSE IF THEY TRIED. The teachers pick on students and don’t care about the students lives after school, or in school for that matter. They don’t try and set you up for a good life.

    I disagree Paul. I have found all the staff especially Tania to be caring and supportive of my child.

    Great. How very rude of many people of saying things like: HIGHLY DON'T RECCOMEND!; I GO TO CHURCH THERE AND IT IS TERRIBLE(lies, nobody goes to church at Overnewton)........ I strongly agree with Chen. Many comments are highly irrelevant and lies Lies LIES!!!! This often angers me a lot. These people do not care much about this school's students, they should pay more attention and should know da wae. AMAZING SCHOOL(pretty amazing) Yours Sincerely, Nathan Yuan

    I used to go this school. It's a great school with a lot of facilities etc. Though as for money, it is a bit of a waste.The teachers are friendly and gave us a lot of free time. I hope to visit this school again.

    I think faculty wise this school is very nice, I love the German teachers as they were both particularly nice to me! However I did bump off some stars due to my experience with the other students, I particularly noticed a lot of homophobic treatment directed at others from them. There was also a concerning group of students who liked to growl a lot, which deeply unsettled me. Overall, nice faculty, concerning kids!
