information SERVICE DETAILS

Craigentinny Castle Playgroup aims to provide a quality service in a safe, happy and stimulating environment for children aged 2.5 - 5 years to play and learn.

Each child is treated equally and as an individual to allow them to progress and develop at their own pace. We work closely in partnership with parents who are recognised as the prime educators of their children. Supporting parental involvement by sharing in play helps parents to develop their own relationships, knowledge and learning.

Wraparound (drop off to Craigentinny Nursery, St Ninians Nursery and Parsons Green Nursery for an extra of £4 fee).

First day Settling in...

On the first day we invite parents/carers to come into the hall with your child and meet staff and the other children. We will ask you to fill in consent forms. This time will also give you a chance to ask any questions you may have.

On the first day we suggest you stay with your child to assess how he/she will settle. A settling in period is usual and we expect parents to provide flexible support depending on your child’s needs.

Activities...

We offer a wide variety of learning opportunities through play such as messy play, sand/water play, arts and crafts activities, music time, story time, ICT and outdoor play to name but a few.
