Being part of your child’s early learning experiences is precious and Grammar Playgroup is a fantastic way for you to have input into those all-important early years.
Our Playgroup is an excellent opportunity for parents to meet other parents with young children and chat over a coffee. Your children get to make new friends and socialise. Every week there will be opportunities for craft, storytelling and song, giving children options to explore and play.
