To provide a safe, secure and stimulating environment which will enhance the development and education of your pre-school child.
WE OFFER:
A broad balanced play-based curriculum.

Opportunities for you and your family to be directly involved in the activities of the group

THE CURRICULUM:
As a playgroup within the pre-school education expansion programme we observe the progress your child makes throughout the year in the seven areas of learning, from physical science and technology, language, maths, knowledge and appreciation of the environment, creative and
aesthetic to personal, social and emotional development and all of our activities/play aims to encompass at least one of these areas.
ORGANISATION:
The playgroup is run by an elected committee, which ensures that the major decision making is in the hands of the parents who use the group.
