<strong>What</strong> families tell us about <strong>Portage</strong><br />

As children leave <strong>Portage</strong> and move on to<br />

Nursery or School, parents are asked to<br />

comment on the service they have received by<br />

completing a questionnaire.<br />

Here are some of the comments we have<br />

received:<br />

"We found it an invaluable service which<br />

provided much needed stimulus and support for<br />

early learning and development."<br />

"<strong>Portage</strong> encouraged us as parents to be more<br />

confident about the future."<br />

"V<strong>is</strong>its were a pleasure - full of fun."<br />

"It was a concrete foundation for us to build<br />

future learning upon."<br />
