What we do well – parent’s and children’s comments
Their outdoor space is incredible and so inspiring, my boys love the freedom to be outside all day and I love that all ages play and explore together.
Holy Trinity has been an amazing preschool for both my children. It’s an extension of home, all the staff care for the children as their own, and help them to learn more
about the world and develop their personalities.
The children learn through play and are nurtured in the loveliest way.
The school pack is brilliant!
A wonderful warm and friendly atmosphere.
I love the openness you have to new ideas or different ways of doing things. I love the social media updates as I can go and check what is happening when and what time.
The welcoming and inclusive ethos immediately struck me on arrival.
It is very stimulating and fosters positivity for the children. I like the fact that the group is involved within the community and has good relationships with local
establishments and organisations.
Seeing real babies!
What could we do better – parent’s and children’s comments
More frequent emails would be useful.
If we could be told a little earlier about events and things that are happening I could plan a little better.
I would like to know a few more details about my child’s day.
More feedback about what activities my child has participated in during the day.
How about a new garage? And we like to use the ball pit!
A flower garden would be nice.
