Session Times:

Playgroup is held every Tuesday and Friday between 8.45am and 11.15am for children aged between 3 to 5 years.

Supervisor:

Our children are in the care of a qualified Supervisor, who is responsible for all activities. Each session the Supervisor is helped by an Assistant, and by an adult helper on a rota system.

Fees:

£15.00 registration fee. £3.50 per child per session for 3 year olds and £6.00 per child per session for 4 year olds, payable in advance, half-termly. Government funding is available for eligible three and four year olds. Any sessions not attended are still required to be paid unless due to severe illness.

Our Aim:

To be able to recognise their own clothes, shoes etc
To be able to dress and undress, particularly shoes and coats
To share toys and play in groups
To explore as many aspects of sensory play as possible
To use scissors, pencils and crayons correctly
To enjoy talking, and to build a wider vocabulary
To be able to recognise, and later to write, their name
An introduction to 'pre-Science' and 'pre-Maths' skills, including recognising numbers to 10 and counting to 20
To recognise and name basic shapes, and all basic colours
