Absolutely love Oakfields! Such a great, safe and nurturing environment for the kids. Teachers are the best and my both kids adore them. They are happy and excited every morning to spend the day with teachers and their friends. It was the best decision to join Oakfields!
We couldn't be happier with Oakfields. The teachers are absolutely amazing - so caring, nurturing, and dedicated. They create such a warm and welcoming environment where children feel safe, supported, and encouraged to grow. Our daughter is always excited to go and comes home happy, full of stories about her day. It's truly wonderful to see her thriving in such a loving and enriching setting. We highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a nursery where their child will be learning but also nurtured.
Oakfields Preparatory School has been amazing for my child's development. The teachers are supportive, attentive, and always on hand. There's a wide range of weekly activities, and I love receiving daily pictures and updates through the app. Highly recommend!
Oakfields Preparatory School is such an amazing environment for my children, their learning experience has been nothing short of an excellent, experienced and nurturing teacher and a very clean and conducive environment to grow.
My daughter began her journey at Oakfields Nursery in September 2022, aged three. From then to now, we have seen her thrive. She has made many friends, adores her teachers and looks forward to every day there. It’s also great that there are so many different and unique activities regularly available. The school environment is wholesome and peaceful, perfect for anxious parents. On observing the older children at the school, they are also very kind and respectful. In terms of her education, we are so impressed by her knowledge, speech and language. She tells us about her day and the things she’s learnt, which are sometimes things we don’t know ourselves. For example, the ability to count to 10 in Spanish and explaining to me what a digraph is. She’s amazing, and the school is amazing. We are happy and at ease knowing she is in a safe and caring environment.
Oakfields nursery is a very caring and nurturing environment for a young child to develop and learn creativity, social skills, phonics, literacy and numeracy. There is a wonderful friendly, positive atmosphere in the nursery and school in general. I couldn't speak more highly of the teachers and staff, for them it's personal, they know all the children's names, are engaged with the children, educating, playing and caring for your child's needs to a high standard. It's the best start all children should have.
Oakfields Montessori Nursery is the best that happened to our family! Children are growing in a loving and caring environment, full of learning fun and friendships! The teachers and carers are extremely supportive. Our son started the nursery when he just turned 3 years old and did not speak a single word of English. He was also significantly attached to our family and we were worried about the transition to the nursery. Oakfields teachers very confidently stepped in and became like second parents: caring, looking after, educating and helping. Our boy followed his teacher everywhere and looked like it was nearly 1:1 care. Now he is a very confident child, learning how to read and trying to write, every day he cannot wait to get to the nursery every morning to see friends and to play together! We love Oakfields Montessori- everything about this school is beautiful!
Oakfields Montessori School provides an environment that encourages my son to be curious about his learning. The teachers are nurturing in their approach and really allow the children to be individuals. My son absolutely loves being and Oakfields Montessori School and has grown immensely since being there.
I chose Oakfields for my eldest child as I felt the staff were passionate about children. I loved the atmosphere of kindergarten both outside and inside where children are encouraged to learn independently as well as in pairs or groups. My son left Oakfields with lots of confidence as well as a sound grasp of phonics, language, numbers and a genuine desire to learn about the world around him. He still talks about it fondly. I'm sending my 2nd child in September 2017 and my 3rd the following year. It's the right choice for us all as we know our children are being cared for by experienced teachers led by a very proactive management team. As parents, we've always felt able to speak to all of the kindergarten teachers about any of our concerns or worries and this, in turn, has been reciprocated. In addition, anything positive or rewarding our child had achieved was celebrated at kindergarten too. We loved using the tapestry app to see what our son had been doing that day.
