Here’s what Aaron Francois-Williams, Head of Early Years at St Mary’s Catholic Infant School, had to say about the live Let's Grow experience in his school and our education platform:
‘On Thursday, 10th October, the children of St Mary’s, along with the staff and myself, were fortunate to take part in the ‘Let’s Grow’ workshop, hosted by Mimi and Ben.
I was incredibly impressed by the immensely positive reactions from the staff, who had nothing but praise for the experience. Equally remarkable was the enthusiasm of the EYFS children—each one, from Nursery to Reception, left the hall absolutely thrilled by what they had experienced.
I also had the opportunity to spend time with Mimi and Ben as they walked me through the resources they offer to schools. In my 11 years of teaching, I’ve never encountered anything quite like what they’ve created. As an educator, it’s clear how thoughtfully these resources have been designed. Each lesson is crafted to captivate the children, starting with an engaging video call. This carefully curated approach has not only inspired me to use the resources but also to incorporate these methods into my own teaching practice.
The creative possibilities these materials allow for are immense, and I’ve already spoken with Mimi and Ben in the hopes that they can return for future workshops. Their work has truly left a lasting impact on our school.’
