Do you have a little one who hasn’t started school yet and are looking for something fun to do on a Wednesday morning? Come along to the St John’s School Playgroup with Miss Lucy!

We offer a range of indoor activities, including painting, craft, and building with Duplo. There’s also plenty of outdoor fun to be had in our much‑loved mud kitchen and playground area.

So pop on a hat, bring a water bottle and some morning tea, and join us for a relaxed morning. Enjoy a cuppa while the children play, explore, and make new friends.
