I saw my child blossoming at Roots & Wings, thanks to their individualised approach, where each child is given space, time and listening to learn and express himself. What really surprised me is the speed at which no -English speaking kids have been able to learn and express themselves in English. Last but not least, the wonderful park Parmentier, where the school is, offering a magic environment to the kids; the projects and discovery outings; the high level of involvement of the families in the school, and the dedication, seriousness and friendly atmosphere by all the teachers and the other parents.
