Coomera Rivers State School

Terrible school. No help for kids who fall behind or have adhd/ autism/ odd. Just send kids home constantly with no support. No support from teachers, deputy or even principal. We were told to look for another school because our son was too difficult, moved to Gainsborough and both kids are thriving. Grades are up and everyone is much happier. Avoid coomera rivers if you can.

School is great, would recommend going there as they have a lot of technology resources, opportunities for students to participate in early career demos such as STEM Olympiads, etc. The only thing that keeps me from 5 star is some of the teachers. Some of the teachers are pretty picky on some students and show a bit of unfairness of attitude such as how they treat the more outstanding kids nicely and there be opposite to those who aren't. I remember one of my friends who didn't believe in climate change and a teacher picked him out, thus creating anger to him and causing trouble which then leads him to being sent by out the classroom. This friend as well was also being teased about his belief and the teacher on duty didn't do anything in lunch breaks. One last thing is how the some teachers in the lower grade classroom yell at students instead of encouraging them to in progress through work. Overall, school is great in general.

Coomera Rivers state school is amazing! I am a peeky mum, this is my son's third state school and it's the best! His teacher (Miss Bryant) sends class photos every Friday. I don't know how she manages to do it with all the hard work she does. The photos include lots of activities and learning progresses. All the staff are welcoming with great smiles everyday. All the children are happy and enthusiastic. The school is very tech savvy and with his Ipad, my son has already started creating a book with the great skills that he has learnt. He said going to school is like a holiday. The facilities are great. It has the feel of a private school. I am so happy with this school in every way.

We moved my son to another school last year due to a lack of consistency, he had 3 teachers in 6 months (all on maternity leave) and developed behavioral issues which he never had due to him testing each teacher to see what boundaries they set that were different from the last. The other issue we faced was that my son was behind as he couldn't write and in 3 years at Coomera Rivers he never learnt how to as they use ipad for everything. In 6 months at a new State school he has developed a love of writing and now can manage many tasks, with or without the ipad. I also found a more caring attitude and participation from the teachers and admin at the new school, it is a joint effort rather than being told it is all up to the parents.

Nurturing, encouraging, highly involved/interactive with students, parents & community, teaches good morals & expectations of students & uniform standards for future endeavours, actively prepares yr 6 students for high school, provides multiple clubs during & out of school time for students to participate in. Although my son has had is share of detentions & trips to the office I HIGHLY recommend CRSS. Vic, his team of staff & volunteers are amazing!
