####

#### Kidsgrove Secondary School is an amazing place to be, but don't just take our word for it:

> "I am really enjoying the school and I love all of the teachers; they are very kind. I was scared at the beginning, but the teachers and the students around made me feel so welcome and I feel like I have been there for years. I am so grateful to be in such a lovely school" - **Jasmine, Year 7 student**

> "I am really enjoying year 7.  I love music and art.  The teachers are really nice." - **Lyla, Year 7 student**

> "When I first found out that I was going to Kidsgrove Secondary I was excited. When I first started, I made lots of new friends, and I'm very happy here." - **Max, Year 7 student**

> "We really enjoyed the breakfast and activities on the first morning...my child got home and was buzzing with excitement and she was even excited over homework...you have ignited something in her...you have really impacted the students." - **Year 7 Parent**

> "We found the transition week so helpful in settling our daughter. She’s always been a shy and anxious girl. Starting high school was such a big step for her. She really did not want to go!
> The transition week was just what she needed. On the Monday she didn’t want to go in but by the end of the week she said she wished she could start now and not have to wait until September. So the whole of the August holidays was full of excitement for high school, rather than worry. Thank you Kidsgrove Secondary!" - **Year 7 Parent**
