Hi, my name is Charna…

and I have the pleasure of running LeapAlong Colchester.

I have been a part of LeapAlong from the very beginning and have worked alongside HQ (to me, Mum) to help build and develop these beautiful classes.

LeapAlong stole my heart from our very first class and I feel very lucky to have the opportunity to offer these wonderful classes to the families of Colchester.

I have watched these classes blossom over the past 4 years and feel passionate about the fantastic head start they give children before they start school.

I hope you love LeapAlong as much as I do. Charna x

Lovely comments from the Parents...

  • Charlie and myself have learnt so much, we always look forward to our Fridays. This is by far the best group, I couldn’t recommend more highly. We will miss our LeapAlong day, as Charlie is now off to nursery, who by the way are blown away by how much he knows, and myself found a refreshed love of learning. Charna you are simply the best, we will miss you and of course Louie xx

  • LeapAlong has been the best class we have joined. I have watched my son learn phonics whilst having fun and he really looks forward to Wednesdays and seeing Charna. Harry has grown in confidence through being at the class and Charna ensures she takes the time to understand the children and get the best out of them.

  • Betty and I have both adored every single session and Charna has been utterly professional, on the ball and fun for every one of them which is some achievement!! Thank you both so much for all you have done to make Betty’s Friday mornings so entertaining and educational. I’m sure she’ll be reaping the rewards for many years to come.
