Breaside Preparatory School

Everyone is inviting and approachable and the kids enjoy going to centre every day. I am also extremely impressed with the pastoral caregiving. The academic structure is outstanding and development is made enjoyable. The centre provides a warm‑hearted and nurturing setting for the kids to thrive. I have two kids at Breaside Preparatory Centre and I am so impressed with everything.

All of the educators and team are delightful yet so professional. I am proud of the centre, the team, the delightful atmosphere of the centre but most important is how content my youngster is. The management of the centre through this pandemic has been commendable. The transition was well managed. Breaside is a centre which is academically extremely excellent and one of the reasons we wanted our youngster to attend. My youngster enjoys going to centre every day starting in Kindergarten and now in Pre-Prep. But what is so special about this centre is the family feel it has.

All the educators and team are so inviting from the second you set foot on the premises. We as parents are told what they will be doing each week. My daughter started in January 2021 and I’m so content with her all around progress so far. There is a excellent structure to the day and throughout the term. The parent to educator updates is also brilliant. She is also extremely content to be there. Highly highly recommend this centre. We also get access to pictures, videos and regular updates of what the youngster has been doing via an online portal.

He is always content to be dropped off to centre, this is a reassuring feeling for me. The centre have worked extremely hard to ensure Covid-19 causes little as possible disruption to development. In the time he has attended Breaside we have noticed how his confidence, understanding and verbal abilities have grown. Lastly, I would such as to commend the inviting family-such as setting the centre exhibits, this is evident from my centre drop-offs and pick ups. Our son has attended the prep centre since Oct 2019. I strongly believe my youngster’s contentment at Breaside is due to the nurturing setting the attentive prep team provide to the kids; as well as the array of activities, they engage in to make development enjoyable. I look forward to the team weekly updates on my son’s progress as you can see the team truly know him and the photographic insights into his week are heartwarming.

As parents, we adore to see their weekly updates, complete with photos of their activities and achievements. She has become so interested in development; not just about traditional centre curriculum, but also important life abilities, such as putting on their coats and identifying their emotions. We also particularly adore the broad range of nutritious food that’s served at centre, which has made her much more open to trying new food at home‑like! Sending our little girl to Breaside Preparatory Centre has been one of the best decisions we’ve made. The educators are remarkable, it goes without saying that they are brilliant at what they do, but more importantly for the little ones, they are warm‑hearted, kind and inviting. Our little girl thrives on routine and structure, and the kindergarten curriculum gives her that sense of confidence and security. She particularly loves PE, yoga/mindfulness and forest centre.

Our son started Kindergarten back in September 2021 and has enjoyed every minute. He’s always so excited to go in, and we have been extremely impressed with his educators and what he has learnt so far. We also plan to send his sister to the centre when she reaches age. Thank you to his educators! They also teach excellent manners and encourage independence. They assistance the kids with their development and growth. They give constant updates on his development for parents to then continue at home‑like.

Providing constant feedback is what is key for us, so my trust can be built. They are a nurturing, responsible, brilliant team. Feeling that you have made the right choice for your little one is priceless. We are delighted with the caregiving and education Breaside Centre is providing to our kids.

Outstanding! Both my kids have adored forest centre and yoga and time is spent getting them used to what centre will be such as in the coming years and encouraging them to be more independent with dressing and toileting. The whole centre has a real community feel with parents being included as much as possible. Lots of time is spent not only on them development academic things such as phonics, writing, numbers and french but also on developing them socially, mentally and physically. It has been a truly positive experience and I’ve seen them both flourish and develop into content kids. Both my kids have attended the early years at Breaside with my daughter currently still in Pre-prep. The educators are delightful and so inviting to the kids and their parents. The educators are approachable and in my experience have truly wanted to help my kids excel and be content. After centre clubs are also available, so my daughter is able to do ballet and educator-led clubs, which she loves.

The nursery has also been fantastic developing the abilities my youngster would need to go into reception, and it is quite remarkable how they managed to put together the fantastic Christmas / Mothers and Father’s day performances and also a sports day for kids at this age. The team always smile and extremely content to have one on one conversation should any parent have anything specific to discuss. My youngster started going to Breaside Day Nursery at the age of 2.5 years old until July 2020 (just started Reception). My youngster goes back to give the nursery team a cuddle every time they see them. My youngster was naturally extremely shy when they started at the day nursery however, their confidence has grown enormously in the nurturing setting. I can only highly recommend Breaside! They are brilliant to bring out the best abilities of each youngster and they let them develop in their own speed and time. The nursery has been extremely attentive to ensure each individual youngster gets the time to get used to the new setting.

Also a bit such as with NCT, you’re also buying yourself a fantastic set of friends for your kids and also yourself. It’s fantastic that even in Kindergarten they have specialist educators for subject areas such as PE! I wish it was them dropping me off and them going to work most days. You only get one chance at early years education in life and Breaside is the best by far in the area. They’ve never said they don’t want to go in. Both of mine started at 2.5 years old, which I thought was young at the time, but the setting and educators are fantastic. Only bit to warn you on is the birthday party circuit (it’s actually quite enjoyable though!). All other parents are invested in their kids as much as you are. Especially when they eat homemade bread for lunch. I wouldn’t send them anywhere else.
