Over Kellet Playgroup provides high quality early years care and education for children from the age of two years until they start school.
We are based in Over Kellet Village Hall which is bright and beautiful with large garden areas for plenty of outdoor fun.
Our friendly, qualified and experienced staff work in partnership with parents to help children learn and develop.
We have excellent staff to child ratios and a full-time Early Years Teacher. We follow the statutory framework for early learning called the Early Years Foundation Stage - the Parent's Guide to the EYFS is available at Playgroup.
Additional activities on offer include SuperBallPaul on Monday mornings, the Reading Fairy on Wednesday mornings and Cookery Club on Thursday afternoons.
Over Kellet Playgroup is registered with OFSTED. We are also a member of the Early Years Alliance.
