Starting at a new place can be a big adventure for little ones - and sometimes a little scary too. At The Grove Academy, we believe the first days should be full of comfort, curiosity and most importantly, a sense of belonging.

When a child begins with us, we take care to welcome them in gently. Each child receives a TGA Welcome Pack, designed to support a calm and reassuring transition into our environment. Inside is a TGA branded shirt and backpack, a storybook that follows our friend Ben through his first days at The Grove Academy, and a soft buddy plush toy - our familiar little mascot who quickly becomes a comforting companion.

Watch as our two newest friends explore and “unbox” their TGA Welcome Pack.

These little touches are more than just gifts, they’re gentle ways of helping children feel safe, supported and part of the Grove community from day one. Because at The Grove Academy, every new beginning is the start of a story - and we love being part of theirs.
