💙 Can you help us bring some extra fun to Progeny Education?! 🎮✨

We’re looking for a Nintendo Switch (with dock), Mario Kart game, and 4 controllers so our young people can enjoy playing together on the big screen.

If you have one you’re no longer using and would like to donate it to us, we’d be so grateful! 🙏

Please get in touch with us here on Facebook or by email at education@progeny.org.uk

Zabrina is one of our fabulous tutors! She is offering private group zoom tuition (not through Progeny Education) for those who are looking for a zoom option. May suit those who are a bit further afield.

Progeny Education was started by parents and we exist to partner with parents of amazing young people who have found mainstream education overwhelming. A massive well done to every one of our students this year and especially to those leaving us and moving on. May God bless you and lead you as you step into this next stage of life.
