"From 2016 when my eldest started Kindy at Bathurst West, I have been delighted with the school. I have four children who have been so happy to go to school, learn lots and make great friends. The teachers and other staff create a lovely supportive environment and I can't recommend West more highly. I will be sad when my youngest finishes Year 6 in a couple of years." — a parent of Bathurst West Public School
