"Our first year of working with North East Skills Training was so popular with children and parents we are running the sessions for a second year for a different group of children. We run the courses as an after school club and it is wonderful to see at first hand the children's enthusiasm for the sessions. All children involved rise to the challenge of the activities and benefit greatly from NEST's involvement. They grow in confidence, develop a greater sense of self-belief and resilience and demonstrate a real sense of pride in their achievements. These skills and attitudes stand them in good stead for their transfer to middle school. I highly recommend NEST's courses as a valuable opportunity for personal growth and development."
