What our families say

Jessica
I decided to put my children at Crawford public school as I always heard good reviews of the school great teachers and great support. Now that my children attend Crawford I have seen a change in all my children. The teachers are great, very supportive they are always there for our children's needs and an awesome principal. I also love how they are very strong with supporting culture due to my children being Aboriginal. Crawford is the best school I highly recommend. I've watched my kids grow and thrive. I feel like it's a safe and happy environment at all times and we absolutely love it. All the office staff are absolutely lovely and caring also very understanding they are all like my second family best school hands down ❤️
