"From what I saw some boys were very rude on the bus they kept saying rude things to other primary school they should learn manners"

"I had the privilege of attending Montfort Primary School and graduated in 1991. Reflecting on my time there, I can confidently say that it was an amazing experience. The school was located at the Old Premises back then, and I have fond memories of the environment and the people who made my schooling years so special. The teachers, though strict, played a significant role in shaping who I am today. I’m incredibly grateful for the education and values imparted to me at Montfort Primary School. Thank you, Montfort, for everything! Age Quod Agis 🤩🙏"

"Good Teachers and staffs at MJS. They are doing a wonderful job in upbringing the boys. The lessons are made interesting for them. Teachers are very supportive. Communication plays a key role when children learn, so far I had the best experience with the form teachers and MT teachers. Keep it up!!"
