“My daughter is loving Nurture Class, what a difference it is already making to her happiness! She now looks forward to school. She is very excited about the baking coming up at your trust secondary, Ratton School. She loves snack and chat time, and she says it's the first time she feels she can be herself at school and move how she needs to. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”

“It was good to get involved with the ‘big dig’ project; I have learnt a lot about archaeology and the History of our school. My mum and dad are taking me to Motcombe Park this weekend to look at all of the artefacts found across Eastbourne this week, which I’m looking forward to. Maybe our findings will be on display, too!”

“I now know how I can help my child (and other children!) in their maths work. I understand my child’s strengths and weaknesses from working with him at the session, which was great. Also, the opportunity to come together with other parents and share our thoughts and knowledge. It was lovely that it was such a relaxed and supportive session, thank you to all your staff. A great event.”

“Hannah has been so excited that she is now a member of parliament for her class. We just wanted to say thank you for this lovely idea! She has been talking about responsibility and how important it is to help others which has meant we could have lots of meaningful conversations with her around this. Great job #TeamOcklynge.”

“I just wanted to say thank you, our son read me his new phonics book on Sunday and completed this all by himself for the first ever time! I have never heard him read fluently like this before, I was so proud. I wanted to reach out and thank you all personally, especially around the new concept of 'Read, Write, Inc', as this is really helping my boy. ”

“I really enjoyed our assembly this Harvest Festival and listening to the Revd. David talk about the celebration of Harvest. We have collected lots of foods and items for Warming up the Homeless Charity, which will make such a difference to them.”
