Our aim is to enhance the development and education of children under statutory school age.

We aim to work within a framework which ensures equality of opportunity for all children and families.

We offer your child:-

  • A specially tailored curriculum with regard to the “Birth to Five Matters in the Early Years Foundation Stage”, which leads towards approved Early Learning Goals.
  • Children are observed and achievements and progress recorded on a regular basis to help plan for their development and learning.
  • The support of a key practitioner but we value the importance of all practitioners being friendly and approachable and forming good relationships with all the children in our care.
  • Individual care and attention made possible by a high ratio of adults to children.
  • Fun and friendship with children and other adults.
  • A wide range of activities and resources to encourage independent choice and opportunities to learn skills through play and participation. We have special regard to personal and social development, physical development, communication and language, mathematical thinking, imagination and creativity.
  • A good balance of adult-led and child-led activities and those that give children the opportunity to explore and experiment in initiating their own play and learning.
  • Opportunities for you and your family to be involved in the activities of the playgroup and in your own child’s progress.
