## Recent parent reviews

- **5/5** — Fantastic School with a Heart of Gold: We've been at Elveden for 3 years now and I couldn't be happier. The staff are so supportive and the Christian values are really instilled in the children. My child loves the Forest School and the Wellbeing Warriors program is amazing. *(Feb 2022)*
- **3/5** — Mixed Feelings: We left Elveden after 2 years and it was a bit of a mixed bag. The teachers were lovely and the curriculum was great, but the school was always struggling with resources and staffing. We did enjoy the Forest School program and the MUGA was a bonus. *(Jan 2021)*
- **4/5** — Our Happy Little School: We've been at Elveden for 2 years and I'm so impressed with the school. The facilities are great, especially the MUGA for hire. My child loves the Squirrel Club and the teachers are really engaging. My only criticism is that it can get a bit chaotic at drop-off and pick-up time. *(Oct 2020)*
