What People Are Saying
“Children were mesmerised the whole way through and really enjoyed it. They joined in and listened the whole time – brilliant!”
Great Open Door is a group of people drawn from local churches who want to serve the schools in Harlow and the surrounding area by providing Christian assemblies and teaching Religious Education.
We believe that children’s learning improves when they are engaged and enjoying the activity, so we try to build a ‘WOW’ factor into everything we do. More..
