Greenwood Kindergarten Has Exceeded My Expectations in the 3 years since my twin Girls started there, knowing something wasnt quite right Head Teacher Sandy quickly noticed and advised me to seek advice from my gp for possible autism and helped me get help to find out what was going on, Since that day myself and all the teachers of greenwood kindergarten went on a journey i dont think any of us were prepared for, Two highly functioning girls on two ends of the spectrum with lots of sensory overloads and qwirks, Sandy & the team have helped me along my journey got me involved with a local parenting course with other parents with neurodiverse children , They have helped me seek help with different kinds of people n support to help get the girls where they need to be, its been overwhelming at times and i think we have all learnt a great deal, Anyone who has children wired differently and not sure where to send them or what school will accept them i hands down recommend Greenwood all the staff are well trained with neurodiverse children and care for every child like there own, Thank-You Team as we draw to the end of our journey i feel i dont know how i can thank you 馃檹 all, But if this message reaches nervous unsure parents n need of help find somewhere for there special little one then job done 馃槉
