Winchester Junior and Senior Public School

I called this morning because it was my son's very first day of school here.

As a concerned single mother whom has 2 other children she had to drop off today I was unable to walk my eldest to his school, so "yes" I was worried.

I wanted to call winchester and make sure that my son made it to his class and that they had the right contact info.

I mean right away from the moment reception picked up the phone they were using a tone of not wanting to help and being very rude.

Finally, after she asked my sons name she takes a 5 sec pause and a sighs** than says "let me put on you on a hold" mind you this is the second hold I've been on just to verify contact information and if my son made it to school.

Now, when she returns to the phone she begins to say we'll we cannot give information like that if they made it or not, than she proceeds to say but "yes he's here" than for no reason with alot of attitude in her voice she says" well we can't be doing this all the time"

Not once was that ever my attention this is the first time I called, than I proceed to say" I don't understand why everyone is being so uptight" I was just calling to verify contact information and if my son made it to school"
This lady I don't remember her name I believe it started with a "D" but wow was she rude never have I ever encountered such unprofessional behaviour from someone who addresses concerned parents everyday.

If you do not like what your doing you should pick another career because your dealing with parents you should be, kind and compassionate. I received none of the above and I was not all at rude, just a concerned parent that needed to be reassured but instead i was made a mockery of.

Left this school in gr 2 but i loved it, narmin, erica, cafree if you see this email me omg i know were in highschool but email me -arianna

I went to school here back in 1995 and 1996 for grade 7 8 miss Roy class and a couple others I can't spell their names. My name is Stephanie savoie I miss the fries and gravy that everyone liked going to down the street that's now a butter chicken restaurant. I loved this school as a kid I remember I enjoyed watering the plants in the front lobby. One of the best schools I ever been too even though I use to like skipping school.

Its an alright bathroom, pretty clean aside from the occasional stain on the walls or doors. Quite spacious too.

Poor staff communication with parents regarding children.not professional with tone on phone.
