A picture of Elaine - founder of the PlaygroupThe Springfield Playgroup was founded by Elaine (pictured left) in 1991 with seven children. It is now running at full capacity with 18 children and a waiting list. Pre-school groups provide companionship and play opportunities which are not always possible at home. The children get a wider experience of the world and develop self-reliance and learn to share with other children. A variety of play activities are provided such as painting, gluing, dressing up, reading, playing with dough. All activities are supervised at all times by trained staff, one of whom is trained in 'Special needs'.

Our group is registered with the Department of Social Services and is covered by the Pre-School Learning Alliance  National Insurance. We meet on Mondays,Thursdays and Fridays from 9:30 to 11:30 in the morning. The fee is £3 per child per morning and children should be 2 1/2 years old and out of nappies.
