There's an atmosphere, a vibe, throughout the entire setting, one that is welcoming, friendly and puts you completely at ease. You have provided our children with amazing opportunities to experience a wide range of activities - a particular favourite in our household is Forest School - our child was so excited to receive her personal invitation to attend the session.'
