Schools in West Wickham

“Excellent Pre-school. Really loving and caring staff. Could not recommend them enough”

“Fantastic place to work, very professional and aspiring!”

“Wow, what a fantastic night. From weeks of rehearsals and gitters on the weekend of the big extravaganza that was the Spotlights production of 'The Wizard of Oz" I have to say what an amazing drama group Spotlights has been for my daughter. The show was fantastic. I also should say that she was more nervous about performing in the show that she was about doing her SATS! As someone who needed a little boost in the confidence department Spotlights has been transformational for my daughter. She loves every aspect of it with Drama and dance being her favorites and singing 'not so much' (even though I think she's got a great voice) but when it came to auditioning for her school play she wasn't scared to stand in front of the whole class and the year six teachers and do her thing. She knows how to project her voice so she is clear and can be heard at the back of the school hall without being scared and without mumbling - something you really notice with the other kids at school. That has such a knock on effect in real life. She's not afraid to put herself forward for things and speaks up more now. When she comes out of Spotlight sessions on a Saturday afternoon she is literally beaming. When I suggested she stops Spotlights when she moves to secondary school I just got 'the look'. That's not going to happen. She has more drive to become a better actor, dancer and singer to get bigger and better parts in the end of year show. Learning lines is becoming second nature and that has really helped her in school. The last word in this review really has to go to Faye and her team. My daughter really loves going to Spotlights and that is more down to the atmosphere during her time there than what she is actually doing. The praise and encouragement she gets each week from the teachers makes such a difference. You make a difference - more than you know. Thank you for all you do.”

“Responsible, creative, fun, classes”

“A truly amazing and outstanding Pre-school in Coney Hall. When we were visiting nurseries and pre-schools, it was not hard to make our decision. Jigsaw stood out for us from the very beginning. I always feel it's like viewing a new house, you get that gut feeling and it is very personal but from the very first visit I instantly felt my children would be very happy here and I would be as a parent. The warmth of the staff and their friendly and happy faces left an imprint on me that I will never forget. They all work wonderfully well as a team and they clearly enjoy their jobs. We were so very lucky to have found Jigsaw. My son and daughter both loved their time here and sadly now they are at Primary School moving on. Thank you Jigsaw for all those wonderful years. Those very early days with you have set them up for school and everyday life and made them children I am so very proud of.”

“Nice stuff”

“GREAT”

“Very good”

“My two children go to Oaklodge, they are very happy and staff are very supportive”

“I'd been poling a few years before I started at Fearless pole, but had a break through COVID. I was really anxious to start a new class but Annabelle was so lovely and helped me find my confidence again! She's a great teacher and her classes are always great fun!”

“My son has attended Little Birches West Wickham for over a year now. I can highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for the best possible place. Ultimately, I wanted my child to be happy and he really is, he walks in most days and doesn’t stop to look back - that is because he is comfortable and feels safe in this environment. The hard-working staff all know my son and my son knows them all. They have created a nurturing environment, where he is invited to play, explore, be curious, respect others and learn life skills. If you haven’t already, it’s worth a visit as we were blown away by the different indoor and outdoor learning spaces, each decorated and resourced in an eco-friendly way, not to mention the forest school in the surrounding woods. My son has formed the most wonderful friendships already, and we are regularly updated with photos and comments about his progress via Tapestry and at the gate. We feel very much a part of the LB family and are incredibly lucky to have our son attend here.”

“Both of my children have attended St francis. The management thats there now are very professional and are very structured which is good for the kids before they set off to go to primary school. All the staff are very caring and kind! The set out inside is really good and they have a good outdoors bit for the kids to play. Would definitely recommend!!”

“I can’t recommend Nest Nurseries highly enough. It’s a wonderful setting, with amazing resources and grounds. The staff can’t do enough for the children and the settling in process is great. All in all a superb nursery.”

“My daughter goes to this nursery , the staff are amazing, professional and so kind. She has learnt so much from here and loves it, I’ve never had any problems or complaints about any aspect of this nursery.”

“Professional coaching and training, friendly and welcoming staff, great environment for young children to experience and develop football skills.My boys love and enjoy being part of Tecnica family. Highly recommended.”
