This school is the best school in the world. When I go to middle school, I am really going to miss my fun time at Tenacres. Also, if you don’t go to this school, go there now! But again, great school.

Well dotty was my sons leavers play, I have no words to explain how lovely it was to see all of year 4 up on stage really enjoying themselves with so much confidence! My son started in reception and has flourished so much. Tenacres is such a wonderful school and it’s thanks to the fabulous teachers who have all helped him to become the smart, confident boy he is today. I’m am truly proud to say my son has his first 5 years of his school life at Tenacres. Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts!

I visited the school on 30/09/2016 as part of becoming a school governor. I was very impressed with the school, the staff, the children and the facilities. An impressive learning environment was evident throughout; a credit to all involved.

I think the idea of this guestbook is fantastic. The website is truly lovely, and informative – more importantly it truly represents your lovely school. I only came on to get the phone number, and have just spent ages enjoying the site! On a different matter – well done to your amazing choir at the Palace Theatre – very moving!

Since moving our son to Tenacres July 2014 he has thrived! All the staff are so friendly to him and he loves the dinner ladies since having hot dinners in the last few weeks. I wish we had moved him sooner. My only slight niggle is not having a newsletter more often as we get lots and lots of booking forms throughout the week, it is easy to mislay one in the everyday madness of life. Aside from that, thank you.

My son joined Tenacres in September and has settled so well. The staff and Head teacher are always very welcoming and he wakes every morning asking if its time to go to school! As a working mum, i also use the breakfast club in the mornings. Again, the staff have made my life easier by the warm welcome my son receives each and every morning. Well done Tenacres.

I was feeling rather sad this morning. Its the childrens last day at Tenacres First School this morning. I’ve been going there every school day for the last 8 years. I couldn’t have chosen a better school for my children to have begun their education and I’ve a lot to thank them for. A huge thank you to Mrs Shillaker and all the teachers who have taught 4 of my children over the years. Goodbye Tenacres we shall miss you! Love from the Rogers Family.

I attended this school between the years 2003-2007. It was a very good first school. I was looking at this website and thinking how quick time flies and now im going into a highschool. This first school has allowed me to get great levels in year five onwards and im very grateful for that. I believe this school is still excellent and i think it will remain that way.

I attended the school between years 1999 and 2004, so seeing the high-quality photographs of the various areas of the school acted like a flashback! The information provided to sum the school up is excellent, with the childrens drawings of the teachers being a creative and unique idea.
