Harrogate prep school invites parents for 'Open Doors' event Harrogate’s Ashville Prep School and Acorns Early Years are preparing to welcome families for their next ‘Open Doors’ event on Wednesday 7th February. The event aims to offer prospective parents a first-hand glimpse of life inside and outside of the classrooms and impressive facilities. There will be an opportunity to see its current crop of pupils aged 2 to 11 in action, as well as a chance to speak to teachers and the Senior Leadership Team, both about the curriculum and the school’s learning philosophy. Families with children aged 2 to 5 will be given the opportunity to visit Acorns Early Years. The experienced team, led by Mrs Charlotte Cryer, support children to "build strong foundations to become confident communicators" through a variety of fun, purposeful and engaging activities. Mrs Cryer said:
“We are dedicated to building trust and a genuine connection with each child and their family at this important first stage of their child’s learning journey. "The children are at the heart of everything that we do and every decision that we make.”One of Ashville’s key beliefs is that the curriculum is delivered through a variety of engaging and memorable methods and learning is not restricted to only take place at a desk. As part of the Open Morning, families will also see lessons in the dedicated Outdoor Learning area, where Ashville pupils, and those in Acorns Early Years, participate in weekly lessons that incorporate practical activities to support and enhance topics and concepts from the classroom. Head of Ashville Prep School, Phil Soutar, said:
“Ashville is a place where learning is engaging and challenging and we cater to each child’s distinct and unique learning needs through our balanced approach to education. “Our bespoke curriculum enthuses, engages and challenges young and inquiring minds, while also promoting high levels of attainment and outstanding academic progress. “Alongside academic skills and knowledge, our key drivers of being open-minded, building global awareness and a sense of community to ensure pupils become well rounded, community spirited and responsible young citizens.”With limited spaces remaining in some year groups, the Open Morning provides a good opportunity for parents to see for themselves if Ashville would be a great prospect for their children.
