I heard about this fantastic crèche from a friend and being a first time parent one always has their doubts. Heather is the school principal and when I contacted her she was more than willing to assist with everything. From day one I loved what they did and my daughter is now more alive and has really grown in the time she has been here. The teachers and staff love our children like their own and look after them better than sometimes we can. I want to thank everyone there for their part in…
My son joined 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 then 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 ev…
Dear Heather and all Adin’s Teachers,   An Inspirer, an Empower, an Engager and a Friend.  These characteristics are just a short sample of the many you and your team demonstrate with all of your students, including Adin, every single day. Too often we progress through the ‘ropes of life,’ and do not invest the time to express our gratitude and authentic value for the support you so eagerly share for our growth, as not only for your students at your school, but also as global citiz…
Dear Andrea, Heather and the Singing Forest team
I would like to extend my greatest gratitude for the beautiful work you put in educating and raising my Melo.
She has grown to be a smart and independent little girl. As a result of your contribution in her growth I can relate to the saying “it takes a village to raise a child”  – the Singing Forest team has been such a positive influence in her development.
I’m sure I …
When my son KB joined Singing Forest he was 22 months old and we were barely a family of 10 children at the school.  Such humble and memorable beginnings we had.  When he left the school at the end of 2013, our Singing Forest family had grown beautifully and my KB, now a tall 5 year old hunk of a guy (about to turn 6), was ready to take on big school – in every way, thanks to Singing Forest! At Singing Forest, life is beautiful!  From the very beginning, Heather ensured a personal relati…
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 …
We were fortunate enough to have both Jesse & Jenna attend Singing Forest. It is a wonderful, accepting environment where every child is acknowledged for his/her strengths. The nurturing culture encourages each child to develop & grow at his or her own pace. It was a home-away-from-home for our little ones Nicole Dennis
 
Hi Heather,
I wanted to drop you a quick mail to say thank you so much for the get well card Kuval made for my mom. She wanted me to tell you she appreciates the thought. She was in tears when he gave it to her.
Thank you again
Warm Regards

It’s 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 pleasure seeing y…
To Heather and the staff at Singing Forest
 
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
Doreen Smit
