Such a wonderful environment, with an amazing team! We feel so confident and at ease leaving our son at Eden Academy, he is cared for and his educators are so informative and warm. The whole progress from application to enrolment was handled so well and we felt very much part of the Eden family. It’s a big centre but you are by no means just a number to them.
