Kingston Park Playgroup

We are located inside Kingston Park Community Centre. We are close to Kingston Park Metro station and shopping centre. We have a large main hall and a lovely all weather outdoor area.

We offer educational childcare for children aged 2 - 4 years. 

We encourage outdoor play every session. During outdoor play children learn about the world around them. They are free to explore at their own pace, as well as try out new experiences during planned activities.

During outdoor play children can develop their physical skills using a range of play equipment such as: 

• balance bikes,
• trikes,
• slides,
• seesaws,
• large mark making resources,
• mud kitchen
• sand tray.

Our curriculum encourages each child to grow and learn important life skills with confidence and independence such as: toilet training, washing hands and putting on coats. We support children to engage in play which helps improve social skills, build relationships and friendships during their time with us.

Within our daily routine we offer: welcome time, a healthy snack, breakfast and drinks, music/ rhythm and song time, circle time including group games and story time, play, child-led play and adult-led activities.  At lunchtime, children bring a packed lunch.

In our main hall children have access to different types of play including a

• small world area,
• home corner,
• art-crafts  
• messy zone,
• mathematics play,
• construction area,
• loose parts play
• cosy story and chill out zone.

Our setting offers a happy, safe environment with a caring staff team. Each child has a key person who works closely with the child, parents/ carers, and other professionals. This supports a full approach to their development and provides greater learning opportunities helping children to succeed.
