NPS

Hardly any windows and they stumble over each other on the field. It looks like it has not been updated since the 70s. I don't want to think about the library. We are declining. The headmaster is wonderful but he has some work to do.


The library is wonderful, and you're simply incorrect about the windows. Are you a new parent who hasnt been inside the school? Or are you not connected to the school?

The library is lovely. Are you mixing up NPS with somewhere else? Every room has windows. Confused.

Jinx! Totally confused by the PP comments about the windows and the assumptions about the library.

this is a troll. NPS is very competitive this year. Everyone I know that applied was waitlisted. This is someone clearly trying to get off the list and steer people away.

Well, I’m hoping to get off the WL for K. Accepted at 2 other schools but really wanted NPS. I’ve heard mixed reviews about every school I applied to. You have to make your own choice.

Actually we got into NPS a few years ago and went elsewhere and the library was something that stuck in my mind too! It’s very depressing compared to other schools and NPS facilities in general were just really outdated. Loved the school otherwise but you need a tiebreaker and facilities were a big part of it!

What a bizarre take. The Library is one of the newer spaces. It’s next to a beautiful light well and it’s a warm, cozy room.

Yea I’m not sure if you all are talking about NPS 10 years ago but it has been renovated since then.

Maybe a few years ago means a lot of years ago? Library is nice and one of the newest spaces in building

listen the NPS facilities are not that great but who really cares. River School is wonderful and their facilities are awful too.

It was two years ago

I’m pretty picky and didn’t think the NPS facilities were bad. A little small but they were fine. We decided to go Primary Day just because it was 4 minutes from our house.

I'm trying to think what could be objectionable about the library and just not seeing it, sorry. To each their own.
