### null review (5/5)

We are very happy with Grow! Our youngest loves going every day and always comes home full of stories from a day packed with energy and play. She’s made lots of “Best Friends” and loves her teachers.
Great ongoing communication and well supported by lovely staff. We’ve needed the help of speech and language therapist who has stated that staff were very open and receptive to our child’s additional needs.
The location and convenient  access make it easy to drop off and pick up.
Highly recommend.

Our son Oscar started at Grow Active Welles Street in September last year and we are so happy to have him enrolled there full time. Lucy and the Room Two Kaiako transitioned Oscar in with care and kindness. He absolutely loves the water play, sandpit and bikes that are on offer in their outdoor area. We have seen his fine and gross motor skills, as well as his language develop over his short time there. He really loves his teachers Georgia, Rachel, Melissa and Emma. They make drop off easier and are always available for a chat at pick up. They are always coming up with exciting activities for the children and show such compassion when they are upset. Lucy is a wonderful centre manager and the care and joy she demonstrates to each child and parent make you feel like part of the family. We love Grow!

Absolutely love the team at Grow Active Welles Street. The staff are so lovely and welcoming. It definitely feels more like a small family than just your average preschool.
My daughter has been going for over a year now and she is thriving in such a positive learning and play environment.
Highly recommend ❤️
