What parents and carers say about participating
“I love coming to this wonderful arts & crafts session and meeting with the talented mums & Sara. I have learned a lot of new skill sets and being able to share my skills and creative ideas, gives me a sense of achievement, that I can help give back to the school, community, and staff for all their support with our children. I am very thankful it’s been a positive experience and great for my mental well-being thankyou:).”
“It’s been a great mental therapy session for me while being surrounded by caring people who understand everyone’s problems. We exchange not only our knowledges and some ideas to care our children but also some creative ideas while making very interesting products for ourselves and school. I’m so happy to be included in this cheerful group and really enjoy attending every week.”
“I love coming to the session because everyone is so supportive, and I have learned so many skills. It has helped my mental health and anxiety. Sara, you support and advise us all regardless of being extremely busy.”
“I like coming to this group because I want to try and learn new skills. Also the other Mums are a good group.”
“The knowledge, love, and support from parents in the parent group are humbling.”
“Sara and Lesley (Flip), I think I can speak on behalf of all the parents. We appreciate you all very much.”
