Those who spend time at the school are naturally familiar. For other parents, there is easy access to the staff - questions are answered in the course of daily conversation when delivering or picking up children. Every Wednesday afternoon there is an Adults' Afternoon Tea in the Green Room, at which parents and teachers can meet and chat. At least twice a year, there is an Adults' Dinner, to which all parents and teachers are invited. This is held at the school on a Saturday evening.
Guests bring a plate to share, and a good time is had by all.
Occasionally, a parent feels out of touch. We have found consistently that a sure cure for this problem is for the parent to spend a day or half-day at the school. Music teachers visit the school, catering for piano, violin, viola, cello, recorder, clarinet, flute, harp, and saxophone. Class music is provided for all students in their first three years of schooling. Choir activities include all the children.
