What parents of Mini Morlanders think about us

Below you will find some short comments from parents who have given feedback about how they have found Mini Morlanders for their little people. We hope you find this helpful hearing what other parents have to say!

'The experience we have had with Mini Morlanders has been brilliant. We enquired about a place for our daughter and luckily she was able to start within a couple of weeks. The staff came to visit us at home before she started which was lovely, and our daughter was then very excited to start at the school- this visit really helped to reassure and prepare her. We can tell how much she enjoys her Mini Morlanders days because she chatters away about what she has been doing at ‘school’, and the Tapestry online journal is full of photos and comments about lots of happy activities with her new friends. We could not be more pleased with how it has gone, and look forward to her joining reception soon.'

'The staff really do make the school a success and Class 1 is a fantastic example of this. The teachers and teaching assistants enabled my children to thrive and were always on hand with additional support if needed. The staff are kind, caring and committed and this in turn makes the children happy and confident in their environment. 

The children have access to lots of toys, crafts and an outside area so Class 1 is always lots of fun. The transition from preschool to reception was minimum for both of my children as they were already in a familiar environment. This really helped with the step up to a more structured curriculum.

There are also lots of fun activities throughout the year including horse riding, trips to the library, swimming lessons and cinema trips at Christmas.  My son and daughter loved Class 1 and as a parent I feel they got the best possible start they could in this nurturing environment.'

'Settling in to preschool was tricky for our daughter, but the support offered to her, and us by the school staff was outstanding, making a difficult time, feel much more manageable. Our daughter is now in Reception and though the support offered, she absolutely loves her time in school, the opportunities she has had through school since starting have broadened her little world and built her confidence in a way we didn’t envisage possible. The school and its staff are a hive of nurture and care with an evident drive to support the students to thrive in their own unique ways. We are so grateful to be a part of the Morland School family.'

It has been great to be welcomed with warmth and care from every member of staff. Nothing seems to much trouble. My daughter couldn't have had a better start!

'We found applying for a place for Mini Morlanders an easy process and we had a look around the nursery and once we heard we had a space the girls had a couple of taster sessions which helped them to get use to the environment. Once they started they soon settled in and knew which areas of the room they enjoyed playing in and moving around to different areas was easy for them to do. For one of my girls she sometimes needed a little reassurance when she first got to nursery and the teacher was always there to give a cuddle and settle her in and soon after she was away playing with her favourite things.'

'Mini Morlanders has been an entirely positive experience. The level of communication right from the start was excellent. The teaching staff made my little boy feel so welcome and he settled in easily.'

'We couldn't recommend Mini Morlanders highly enough. The whole team are extremely approachable and welcoming. The process of gaining a place there was made effortless through the excellent communication from the teacher. 

We found the initial home visit a lovely touch and it relaxed both ourselves and our child in the lead up to his start at the nursery. Our son settled better than we ever imagined and it is a joy to pick him up and hear about the fun he has been having and witness how much he is developing.'
