“From the first day my family walked into Elizabeth Barrett we have felt welcome. The whole staff creates a warm and caring environment. Through the hard work of knowledgeable, committed and professional staff and the many varied opportunities offered to them, my children have truly thrived. The school's dedication to educating the whole child has produced responsible young people who are socially and environmentally aware.
