“It has been such a pleasure to work with Sophie and the team at Sacred Heart these past two years on their journey to OPAL Platinum.  It cannot be understated that the hard work, determination, and the unrelenting desire to improve the lives of each and every child at Sacred Heart by the team, has enabled such a wonderful transformation of play times.    For me, the biggest change is the level of purposeful engagement of every child at play time.  Whether it is making a five tiered wedding cake in the messy cafe, building dens in the woodland and sand castles at the beach, dressing up as spider man, banging symbols in the music hut, or simply pushing your mate around in a pushchair, there is not a single child not doing something fun, that they have chosen to do!”  Bobby Beaumont, Director OPAL East Midands
