[Changing schools] has been a hard decision for us to make as both Isabella and Liam are so happy! And it’s been amazing to see how much they have learnt and grown.   I’m particularly fond of everyone at Singing Forest, I feel like we are part of a special family and have enjoyed the caring, loving, relaxed why in which the school is run.  I absolutely love all the teachers and in particular Amy and Diana.  (And of course our dear Fathima).   Andrea you are phenomenal… I’ve had the…
My son joined The Singing Forest for his (2nd) Grade 0 year.  Everything that his previous school got so badly wrong with him (and his mum!), Singing Forest just naturally did right. They truly work with the individual and understand that we are all different and embrace this!  I have never felt any pressure as the parent to sort things out, only good communication and a genuine need to sort out any issues that may crop up.  Another very important aspect for me was the timing of parent evenin…
I am so grateful that my son Oscar was able to join Heather and her crew at Singing Forest. I was absolutely confident that he was in the best possible hands and the staff always went above and beyond nurturing and stimulating my child, enabling him to reach his full potential. He is now at Chartwell House Montessori Eco School. Thanks so much Heather, Andrea and Ruth!!! Elise Kreusch  
It feels like my baby is leaving a part of his family. It has been a wonderful year for him and I still believe bringing him to Singing Forest this year was a good move and we are happy with all he has learned, just sorry it was so short.
Thank you Heather for the excellent service you are always giving. And May God Pour His Blessings over you and your entire family. We are so grateful to have someone like you whom we can always count on, trust and believe in with our little souls who we …
Emma and Ben are both proof of all the things you and your team are doing for our little ones. Emma started off with you when you were looking after a handful of kiddies at your house, and five years on, she graduated from Singing Forest as a confident, aware Grade R. Heather I believe without a doubt Emma would never have flourished in any other school, as she did at Singing Forest. In her Grade R year, which was a little more challenging for her, you and your team took the time to find out wha…
“My very defiant, headstrong and michievious little boy has spent a year and a half at Singing Forest – and I cannot praise the school and staff highly enough. The loving & supportive environment they have created ensured our little man could be himself, but could also find his way and his place in a montessori classroom context; he has developed and grown under the care and facilitation of Aneesa and Andrea in particular. Tha…
Sending your toddler to school for the first time has got to be one of THE most stressful, heart breaking moments a parent can go through, ok not all parents, maybe just the overly protective softies like myself.
 
From the moment I opened the gates at Singing Forest I knew I had found a home away from home for my daughter. Not only was I able to phone a million times a day to check if my daughter was ok,  Heather completely understood my feelings and emotions and helped me overcome every sing…

We would just like to thank you for the great year we had with you.  Caleigh has learned a lot in that year and will miss everybody!!!  Good luck for 2015 and may the school just grow in every aspect.
 
Lots of love

Hi Heather I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate everything you and your staff have done to help Khensani She’s gone from being a very reserved child to being a confident, bubbly, focused little girl! You’ve helped build the foundation for improved learning achievement, focus and social interactions. The impact of your help is so significant. It will help her for the rest of her life. I truly can’t thank you enough and will be forever grateful. Much Appreciated Love …
