"I have never been in a centre where it is so caring and nurturing for not only children but staff as well. I thought I was finished with any formal studying but coming to this centre has made me want to learn about this wonderful way of learning".

Dear Judith & Pikko,
This is a very belated letter to thank you for making Edward's experience of preschool so wonderful. We left in such a rush earlier this year that I didn't have a chance to let you know my feelings about Millthorpe Children's Garden.
Edward doesn't realise how lucky he is to have spent 12 months with you both. He doesn't realise that the opportunity to climb trees, swing on real swings and make cubby houses out of bedspreads isn't available to all children. Nor does he understand that play with in the context of calmness and spirituality is also rarely obtained.
I wanted to thank you for giving Edward a wonderful 12 months. He flourished at your centre. And I always felt he was getting better parenting there than he was at home, thus removing the eternal guilt that I've felt in the past leaving him at other childcare centres.
You will be pleased to know that Edward is blooming at school. While his handwriting remains a little behind (as you both predicted), cognitively and socially he is ahead of the class and enjoying the expanded world.
I hope that your business continues to thrive so that many, many other children also grow up assuming that the Milthorpe Children's Garden experience is the norm, not the exception.
Yours sincerely,
Zoe Hibbert - Millthorpe.
