| Marri Grove Primary school is a great community orientated school with a strong ethos and pleasant staff.it is a growing school and has many great aspects about it.The school is fairly modern and has a great layout.The design is very functional and well located. | The school could do with more parking ,less demountables,better acess ,future planning,and better public bus service to the school. The school could do with a seperate dedicated lote classroom not an activity area. | The school is a great choice for Byford ,Oakford,Darling Downs,and Cardup families. The School is well known and has a bright and ambtious future. | ||
