Dear Parents, Carers and Visitors, 

On behalf of the Trustees, staff and myself, I would like to take this opportunity to extend a warm welcome to our Hillcrest Early Years Academy family.

Choosing a school for your child is one of the most important decisions we make as parents for our children and whether you are reading this as a prospective member of our Academy family or as a member of our community, it gives me great pleasure to share our journey with you. I hope this website shows you a glimpse of what makes Hillcrest Early Years Academy so unique and special and that it gives you an insight into our incredible school.

At Hillcrest Early Years Academy, our goal is for every child to leave our school happy and successful, with memories that they will cherish forever and skills that are the foundation for their future learning. Our staff are committed to ensuring the very best for your child through providing the highest standard of education and creating a safe and nurturing environment which ignites curiosity, awe and wonder so that children feel safe to take risks, make mistakes and challenge themselves to be the best version of themselves they can be.

We believe that the partnership between home and school is crucial to your child’s academic, social and physical development and continually strive to develop this link with our families. As we value open communication, feedback and discussion with our families, should you wish to arrange a meeting, we encourage you to make an appointment to visit the Academy at any point during the school year and look forward to meeting with you.

I hope that this website has given you an insight into the operation, vision and values of the Academy and that it will provide you with most of the information you require. However, as always, there will be other questions which arise and we are happy to discuss these with you either in person or by telephone. If you need any further clarification, please do contact us; we are always here to help you as well as your child and we look forward to offering the warmest welcome to our Academy.

Yours sincerely,

Miss S Stokes
