  I think the other reviews are harsh and I would question whether or not they have sent their kids to Essington. I think in the territory there is always a backlash against private schools simply because they are private. Compared to where we sent our child to public school in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney, the maths were far ahead, they have far better IT facilities and STEM focus. Its a nice little campus with friendly staff and parents. Arts are lacking however. The price is a fraction of what you would pay anywhere else in Australia and the school is far more diverse culturally and when it comes to social economic status. Its not perfect but for the small price you pay I think it tries to deliver to the best of its ability.

  This is an absolutely terrible school! DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD HERE! It is an absolutely overpriced school where money is not spent to help your child's education! Instead it is spent on EXTREMELY low quality equipment that sometimes fails to work entirely! The school charges parents for "Use of stationary" yet students must buy their own! This school is an absolute rip-off! DO NOT GO HERE!

  This is a fun and friendly school that challenges yourself into different tasks like tug of war and dodge ball and thats only the class challenges wait until you here about what is going on around the classes, you get to do fun stuff in science like melting chocolate and cool stuff in P.E like Gaelic Football. Essington is one of the best school and if not the Greatest schools in Darwin
