Testimonials

I just want to take a moment to express our gratitude for the warm welcome we received at the Open Morning event. It was a delightful experience, and the staff was incredibly hospitable. We were impressed by the level of dedication and enthusiasm they displayed in ensuring everyone had a great time.

Just a quick note to say thank you to your wonderful staff that made the Frylands trip happen. To all the hard work from those at the trip itself and also the contribution from everyone involved in the preparations. This learning and development beyond the school walls is immeasurable, it will forever be a core memory, something she will be able to build upon, and remember always.

We were hugely impressed by the grandparents’ tea party; the children’s performances, the days organisation, the lovely atmosphere and warm welcome from the staff combined to produce a thoroughly enjoyable morning and afternoon ….  With tea and scones to boot !!

I would like to say a big thank you for the very informative and engaging Maths Workshop (for parents) you ran yesterday. I was and am so heartened to see the engaging and empathetic manner in which you approach maths (and the broader curriculum). Such engagement and energy was palpable last night. It is evident that your team enjoy what they do and they take proactive care of their charges, gently weeding out any areas of confusion.

A balance of academics, pastoral care, extra-curricular activities and fun gives St Christopher’s The Hall a true village feel, and we are extremely happy with our choice. My daughter says the best thing is that it’s fun; my son says it’s Mr Myatt, the sports coach. For me, it’s that they bound through the gate every day and rarely look back.

We are delighted with St Christopher’s The Hall. The staff are lovely, and our son is happy – he is developing very well academically, but most of all I’m impressed by the emphasis on wellbeing.

Bonnie Patel

We have a son and a daughter at St Christopher’s The Hall and could not be happier with our school choice. There is a great sense of community and the broad curriculum allows them to be involved in a wide range of activities. The best testament to the school is how happy our children are when they arrive at the school gates each morning.

Nathalie Wickes

Our daughter has attended the St Christopher’s The Hall pre-school for two years now and it has been a pleasure to see how far she has progressed, growing in confidence whilst developing through the Early Years Foundation Stage, as well as her own personal development. All her teachers are so lovely and caring – the pastoral care at this school really is fantastic.
