At Carryduff Pre-school we believe playgroup is the ideal setting for children to learn to socialise, accept simple rules, and to experience a range of creative, imaginative and physical play under the guidance of caring adults, committed to providing high quality, pre-school education. All children are welcome, regardless of ability, background, race or religion.

Our Playgroup adheres to the N.I. Pre-school Curriculum Guidance, which concentrates on the six areas of learning and development:

  • The World Around Us
  • Early Mathematical Experiences
  • Language & Literacy
  • The Arts
  • Physical Development
  • Personal, Social & Emotional Development

We are a busy playgroup with lots of exciting indoor and outdoor learning experiences to promote high quality teaching and learning. We focus on ensuring that our children are safe and have lots of fun while learning. We believe that strong relationships with parents and carers, supports the holistic development of our children and we continually aim to develop and maintain these.

Prospective parents are always welcome to contact our centre to make enquiries.
