OPEN DAY ON SATURDAY 22nd MAY

Following our recent Open Day on the 22nd May this is a letter sent by one of the visiting parents: -

I am writing to express my feelings about the recent open day at Heathcote School on Saturday. We saw an advertisment for this event in Ramsden Bellhouse and we were delighted that we came along. The atmosphere at the school was excellent with everyone making us feel very welcome. The staff are clearly dedicated and commited to the school and I was amazed at how polite and enthusiastic the children were too. We brought our 17 month old daughter with us to the open day and the young children of your school involved her in their play, ensuring that she was having fun and enjoying herself - which she most definitely did.

Yourself and Mr Ewan gave informative and interesting tours of both the upper and lower schools and the work that we saw on display was of an incredibly high standard.

We have been very impressed by your school - the relaxed but hard working ethos shone through and we can't wait until Lillian is old enough to join you.

Thank you so much for making us so welcome, we thoroughly enjoyed our morning at Heathcote.

With Best wishes

Mrs A Warren
