This is not really a school you can choose as such, rather it is one that chooses you - or rather…read moreit chooses your child. It used to be known as Bowden Brompton and I'm glad it got rid of that name as it had a really bad wrap and this place isn't that bad. It basically works on a referral service from schools in the southern area. If your child is having lots of issues, mainly focussed around behaviour issues rather than actual learning difficulties, then this is where they send them. It has it's disadvantages but you hope they are outweighed by the advantages. The teachers there are absolutely fantastic though. The handle things really well and have much smaller classes. Usually your child is only here for a maximum of 10 weeks - which in my child's case tends to disrupt his routine too much and cause more hassles having so many changes. And they pick your child up and drop them off with a provided taxi service. Older children even end up going to boot camp style Operation Flinders if they are here in about October each year. Although my children managed when they had to go here short term (all at different times mind you) I was worried about the worse behaviours other kids there may have and that they might rub off onto mine. It all worked out okay though.

Flinders is often much maligned as the forgotten SA uni. Far from the city and not nearly as hip it…read morealmost as if it causes the staff and students to work harder to change perception. With two campuses in Bedford Park most students are now situated on the Main campus with the recent addition of the newly built Education building. It has also recently had a multimillion dollar upgrade to the sports facilities and now boasts one of the best views of any uni and cheapest memberships for a fully equipped gym. Degrees ranging in the areas of Education, Humanity, Science, Law and Medicine there is a massive range and great level of experience that goes along with them. Party life dropped off a bit with the closure of the Tav but after a few years is picking back up with the advent of powers that be getting their acts together.

Flinders is a good university. Almost everyone is friendly and helpful. The first year science…read moretopics are generally well structured however I find the resources at Adelaide University to be outstanding in comparison. The facilities at the uni are nice however look slightly outdated in comparison to Adelaide. Overall, Flinders is a good uni, however Adelaide has a range of extra facilities for science courses, with tuition fees that aren't significantly higher.

The school provides a nurturing atmosphere for my two children. The education is excellent,…read moreemphasising respect, resilience, and technology skills, which I believe are increasingly vital as time goes on. The teachers are very supportive, particularly our interactions with the foundation teachers. My daughter has special needs due to a life-threatening allergy, and following her immunologist's advice, the school has made some adjustments to support her. The school has proactively prioritised my daughter's safety, for which we are extremely grateful.

My child went to this school for a few terms before moving to a more specialised one closer to…read morehome. It was a fantastic school. Especially if your child has any special needs. They have more SSO support than most schools and are a specialty disability school as well as a normal mainstream public school. They also have a great OSHC facility on site which we used being full time working parents. The schools communication was extremely effective with the teacher even emailing out weekly newsletters - which was great when we rarely saw the teacher as we would drop off and pick up from OSHC. There was a little disruption when he was there with some building works occuring due to additional schools funding. He was in a huge hall as a temporary classroom but it would all be finished now and would look even better.

I love that most (not sure about ALL) of the schools in the City of Unley area openly invite the…read morepublic to play on their playgrounds outside of school hours or school usage. Unley Primary is no different. Check out the photos for the times when the play equipment is open to the public. While the playgrounds themselves are a little dated, they have equipment split up for different age groups. The younger age group's playground is entirely rubber floored while the other areas are bark chipped. *Dogs allowed* *Drinking fountain* *Shade/sheltered areas*

This school is not recomended for your child It has some…read moreredeaming features but also has many drawbacks. The school bathrooms are often graphitied and the toilets clogged with rubbish (IDK about the girls bathroom). The school during winter has banned beanies and other warm items of clothing and strictly enforece the uniform policy. It has many students who leave class to have "group meetings" in the bathrooms. The princepible is often seen as old and uncaring by the students who do not think she has improved the school in any manor. The only good thing about the school is the teachers such as Miss Mancini or Mr Fitzgerald who bring a fun atmosphere to the class room, along with some other teachers. Overall the school is not recomended compared to its other competitors. - Hamiltion Haters

I went to Uni straight from school and was lucky enough to have all my classes for my media degree…read moreat Magill. It's a great local campus with public transport, plenty of cheap parking, food facilities and easy going small classes. The setting is beautiful, with lots of grass, open space, trees, bridges, park benches and a creek that runs pretty heavy after rain in the hills. I went here for 3 years and the time was good and I learnt a lot. The teachers were ok, not the best, but you always get the good and the bad. If you are lucky enough to be able to complete your whole Uni degree away from the city, then make the most of it. It saves you lots of time, travel, money, effort, stair walking and busy campuses.

I used to be a student here back in 2000 and I used to bitch and moan about how boring it was. 'We…read moredon't even have a decent bar here, the best thing about this place is the creek, why aren't I popular, waaah!' After attending Flinders and working around the corner from Magill Uni for the last year however, I've realised that it's actually a beautiful campus and the main problem with it was my stinking attitude! Magill students have a local, the Tower Hotel, just up the road, as well as some really good and cheap food places just up on Magill Road. The 106 bus goes straight from the city to uni pretty much constantly and there's heaps of parking (unlike other University's) so they don't have to worry about transport, and it's a beautiful campus! The gardens are immaculate and the buildings are a mixture of beautiful historic and totally up to date modern. It's a sweet Uni! And I bet all you nature loving kids just can't get enough of that creek.

Ahhh takes me back to the days of my childhood. I attended this Primary School from 1995-2002 and…read moreit was an awesome family orientated school where everyone did well and had fun. It has obviously changed a lot since then, almost, 10 years on now, but some of the quality teachers have remained and the school still has a good reputation. It's a small co-ed Catholic school with a church in a nearby suburb, but there is not too much of a focus or push on Religion. The facilities while I was there were improving and have continued to be upgraded, with new computers, library, music room, gym, classrooms, desks and even the outdoor area. I had a great 8 years at this primary school, with a community feel, a small amount of students and everyone knew everyone. I would definitely consider sending my kids here.
