School in Beckenham

“My eldest daughter (now at school) absolutely loved Kia Mena and still talks about her amazing time there. My youngest is still at Kia Mena and she also loves it and is having the best time. The teachers/teaching assistants are exceptional and keep us updated on all that goes on. They are the backbone of the pre-school and we’re truly grateful for all the love and care they provide for not only the children but also for the parents/carers and the community itself. Its been almost 4 years that I’ve been taking my girls to Kia Mena and the high retention of lovely and high valued staff has meant that it has a lovely, warm and family feel to it. It’s been amazing and I’m so grateful for all they have done. My youngest will start school this year and we’ll all truly miss coming back to Kia Mena. Thank you for everything!!”

“Took my nephews Raymond, Peter and Fred here last week. Friendly staff who were great with the kids, will definitely be going back.”

“PopGems is an incredible place where children can truly explore their creativity and talents. The staff are not only dedicated but also passionate about creating a positive, welcoming atmosphere where kids can dance, act, and sing in a fun and supportive environment. It's clear that a lot of hard work goes into making every class enjoyable, and it’s evident how much the kids love being there. I highly recommend PopGems to any parent looking for a place where their child can grow, have fun, and discover their creative potential. It’s been a wonderful experience!”

“Our family has had an exceptional experience with Little Elms. From the very first settling-in session, it was clear that this was a place where children are truly cared for, not just looked after. The staff have been outstanding in their attentiveness to our child’s development, and their support has been invaluable to us as first-time parents. The team’s dedication and warmth made us feel confident and at ease, knowing our child was in the best possible hands. We have seen remarkable growth and happiness in our little one, and it’s clear that the nurturing environment at Little Elms played a significant role in that. We highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe, caring, and developmentally supportive environment for their child. Thank you, Little Elms, for everything!”

“My daughter has attended Spotlights since she was 3 and absolutely loves it. She just participated in her first proper production in a theatre and it was a fantastic experience for her. The teachers are really enthusiastic, nurturing and patient - would highly recommend”

“The inside squash courts in my opinion are the best in the area. The bar also has a small club feel with plenty of character. The members are friendly and there are usually people at the bar to say hello to.”

“Moved to BBA a year ago and very happy with decision. My child settled and made friends quickly and we’ve been impressed by the progress she’s made.”

“This outstanding ranked school has been there for several decades and the teaching staffs are caring and responsible.”

“Had the most wonderful experience at this Pre-School. The teachers and very kind and friendly, my daughter loves them! They made the transition very easy.”

“Fantastic, small and nurturing pre-school. Caring and attentive staff. Really well run. A real gem in the community.”

“Brand new school great facilities as you would expect from a new school and teachers are of a good standard”

“We currently have our daughter attending the preschool (having started in lower kindie), for 2 years now and it has been a pleasure seeing how far she has progressed. Our daughter has really grown in confidence whilst developing through the EYFS, as well as her own personal development. All her teachers are so lovely, and caring. The pastoral care at this school really is fantastic and that is one of the many reasons why we chose St Christopher’s for our daughters primary education. We look forward to Sept 2022 when she starts Reception, and enjoy everything the school has to offer.”

“I love the chare house and my kids enjoy a lot”

“Yeh I love the fact you can wear trousers even if you are a girl”

“Our daughter has had two wonderful years with Clockhouse Preschool. She started as a sensitive and shy kid and has flourished with the excellent practitioners there. She's always excited to tell us about something that's happened at preschool. The activities are varied and well balanced between group and individual activities so kids can pursue what they find interesting. Overall, an excellent place to send your kids!”

“Fabulous music school allowing children to develop confidence and pride in their work as well as musical ability.”

“My son is very happy here and has built relationships with the other children and staff. I'm amazed by what he learns and the nursery have always been very supportive and engaging.”

“TRICCS Have been great. Take all 3 of my chrildren and really happy with the flexibility of lessons availability and quality of teaching. Patrick adapts for the different age bands brilliantly.”

“A really lovely class held by Miss Hannah. Very welcoming and full of enthusiasm. My daughter loves Saturday morning Ballet here. Getting the girls to try new techniques and follow new instructions from someone other than parents. Its an intimate class of only 4-5 little girls which is perfect for us as we like small groups. Miss Hannah has a lovely way with the children and learns their names very quickly and speaks to them directly throughout the class using encouraging and prompting language. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a 30 minute class for little ones. And its very very CUTE!”

“it is a kind and supportive school”

“Great experience and Confidence building! All with smiles and laughter.”

“I can't speak highly enough of Ladybird and their lovely staff. Our son was in the caterpillar room (for 6 months to 2 year-olds) through a very tumultuous 2020, and they were brilliant. He took a while to settle but the staff were always so caring, to him and us. They'd often call to let us know if he'd had a difficult time at drop-off, which was a big relief. He developed so much whilst there, and you could tell how much he loved his carers, and his new friends. As a new-ish parent, sending your little one away to spend all day with strangers is daunting, but you couldn't be in better hands with Ladybird. They became like an extended family, and we were so sad to leave when we moved house. We'll miss you all!”

“This school is good kids behave well”

“My old primary school! Years since I've been here and I still miss it!”
