From the moment our son stepped through the doors of Woodward, we knew he was in a place where he would thrive. The warm and welcoming environment created by the dedicated staff has been nothing short of amazing. Each day, he comes home with new stories of adventures, learning experiences, and friendships that he has formed.

The teachers at Woodward are exceptional. They have an ability to connect with the children and understand their individual needs, helping to nurture not just their academic growth, but their personal development as well. Our son has blossomed under their care, showing significant progress in his communication skills, confidence, and creativity.

The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to engage young minds, encouraging curiosity and a love for learning. The balance between structured activities and free play is perfect, allowing the children to explore their interests while gaining valuable social skills.

We are particularly impressed with how the pre-school has fostered a sense of community among the children. Our son has learned the importance of sharing, teamwork, and empathy, which are crucial skills for his future.

We cannot thank Woodward enough for the positive impact they have had on our son's early years. We highly recommend this pre-school to any parent looking for a nurturing, educational, and fun environment for their child.
