Both my 2 daughters have attended Foresters throughout their primary school and they have been safe and happy . The teachers have been so amazing to my children and myself, they communicate to me about everything going on at school, they have supported me as a parent in many situations, the ladies at the reception/ office are so amazing, they are so welcoming and helpful and I like their beautiful smiles, I feel calm and at ease when talking to them. My children have not experienced any bullying in Foresters, my children and I will never forget Foresters, they have surely given my children a good start in life.
