Advertising Feature by St Chris School
St Chris is a co-educational independent school for children aged 3–18 in Letchworth Garden City, where every child is valued as an individual.
We believe every child has their own strengths, interests and ambitions. Our nurturing community, inspiring teachers and personalised approach create an environment where students are supported to grow in confidence, discover their passions and achieve their full potential.
Parents often tell us that their children come to life at St Chris. They find their voice, develop confidence and become excited about learning.
From the classroom to the stage, the swimming pool to the forest school, every experience is designed to help young people explore who they are and what they can achieve.
Join us for an Open Event and experience the St Chris difference for yourself. Meet our teachers, hear from our students, explore our facilities and discover a school where individuality is celebrated and every child is encouraged to thrive.
Come and see how an education built around your child can inspire them to become the very best version of themselves.
See us in action here.
Mini Mozart classes bring the magic of live music to babies, toddlers and their grown-ups in a relaxed, friendly and interactive way.
Each class combines live music performed by professional musicians with singing, stories, movement, instruments, props and plenty of opportunities for little ones to join in. Children are introduced to the sounds of real instruments playing classical music from an early age, while developing listening, communication, coordination and social skills — all while having lots of fun!
And there's exciting news for Harpenden families: a brand-new Babies class is launching from 7th September! We believe that all humans are born musical - we're just there to encourage and celebrate this joyous gift! Our classes are designed especially for our youngest musicians by encouraging their innate musicality as well as promoting confidence for families to be as musical as possible both at classes and at home.
Come and join us in Harpenden on Monday morning at the Salvation Army on Leyton Green and make live music a part of your little one's world from the very beginning. Click here to book.
