A nurturing Church School Rooted and Grounded in Love for all

I just wanted to take the opportunity to say thank you for all that you and the team do. It feels like the school continues to go from strength to strength. We feel so fortunate that the girls are part of such a wonderful and nurturing school.

It is fantastic and amazing and I never want anyone to leave this school.

Student (Year 3)
My child has been coming to the school for 18 months now and it was hands down the best decision we made moving him from his old childcare provider to Forest of Galtres. From the first time we stepped into the building to today, every member of staff has been friendly and approachable. My child has been nurtured and supported and as a result is making great progress. He is happy at school and enjoys the varied curriculum that they provide, especially the Forest school lessons.

We have no doubt whatsoever about this school and are fully confident that we couldn’t have picked a better school for our daughter. The staff go above and beyond!!!

I love that there are different clubs. It is like you read my mind, I wanted a drama club and one started!

Student (Year 4)
Forest of Galtres is such a lovely school with great teachers and super leadership. As a parent I always feel welcome and I know if I had any concerns I could raise them and Mrs Holmes would listen and act swiftly. Communication is excellent with regular emails and newsletters and I love how they use social media for us to keep in the loop of the curriculum and events. The children go on a number of educational trips and sport is also a big focus with out of school tournaments. My son is very happy here. Thank you for all you do.
