The Silverhill Playgroup
Silverhill Playgroup is very well run as a community playgroup for children aged 2-5 years old. We provide a safe and happy environment in which children can play and learn.
Because of the current situation when you drop off and pick up your child please be as quick as possible, practice social distancing, and don't block our narrow entrance.
Thanks.
If the situation changes we will post it here and on our FaceBook page.
- We always have a wide variety of activities out each day for the children to do.
- We encourage the parents to stay and help and see how the children learn.
- We have a small outside area which is used whatever the weather.
Statement by Becky, Playgroup Manager
We recognise that quality learning can be achieved:
- When the children feel safe, secure and happy at playgroup
- Where the children are enjoying themselves and showing interest in the activities
- When the progress in the children’s development can be observed and described
- Where the children can involve themselves in first hand experiences involvingexploration, experimentation and risk taking
- When positive attitudes and habits are being encouraged and established
- When children are given opportunities for spontaneous play and for learning from each other
- Where children are involved in practical activities, inquiring and purposeful play
It is how much learning is going on at playgroup, not how many activities there are available…..
…but we have lots of activities!
We include parents in their children’s education.
We have the facility in place to allow us to give parents information about their child’s interests and abilities, and we are using the regular parent and key worker meetings so we can share their progress and development.
We keep an up to date photographic folder of activities at the setting and often keep work for the child’s personal folder. Regular individual observations are made to help us with planning the learning environment for each child’s development journey.
