• 🌟September Starters 2024

  Tue 18 Jun 2024 Bethany Simpson

  It was lovely to meet all our new parents and carers who will be joining us at St Giles in September.
  
  We are excited to meet your little ones during the next three visits to school, as well as the home visit, to get to know their personalities, things they may find a little tricky, their favourite things and much more!
  
  We understand the importance of this transition and are committed to providing a supportive and enriching environment for their educational journey. Our team here at St Giles are dedicated to ensuring a smooth and positive experience for both you and your child as they embark on this new chapter. 🌟
  
  If you have any questions that you thought, "Oh, I didn't ask that," "Can I just check," or any other queries, please don't hesitate to call us on 01629 56813 and we will answer any of those for you.
  
  We look forward to partnering with you to foster growth, learning, and success.
  
  Thank you again for your time this evening.
  
  Miss. Simpson and the team at St Giles 🤩
