When I was looking for schools for my children there was only one option in my eyes. I drive past schools so my boys can attend this one. I attended Featherby many years ago and it's still has the same inviting atmosphere as it did back then. My children both go into school with a smile and come home with one too, both excited to share what they have been doing or making while at school.

 

My youngest has just started nursery and the transition from lockdown being at home 24/7 for 6 months to starting was outstanding. His teachers sent him videos so he would know who there were and he walked straight on and didn't look back and he loves it, as a parent I really couldn't ask for more. He has made many friends and is learning lots of new things too.

 

I just want to say I am so thankful that we are part of the Featherby Family and couldn't of chosen a better school for my daughter to be attending. It's her first year at school and the transition has been so smooth considering we are going through some difficult times. I am very thankful from the help from the school and her teacher to make this as easy as possible for myself and my daughter.

 

Thank you for your precious time, sharing knowledge to shape her personality and bring out the best in our child. We are so proud to be part of the Featherby family.
