About Us

Welcome to the Ballymacash Playgroup where our aims are to provide a safe and happy environment for your child so that they may enjoy play and have lots of fun. At the same time our trained staff will help them to develop physically, intellectually, emotionally and socially in a safe and secure environment.

Play is an important part of growth and development in each child. It enables them to learn about themselves and their world. We have a free play session where the children have an opportunity to choose for themselves - learning skills and moving forward at their own pace.

They can experience creative, imaginative, manipulative, exploratory, physical and social play under the guidance of our staff who will be there to support and encourage them.

Parents are the first educators of their young children and our aim in the playgroup is to support their essential work. We look forward to working in partnership with you the parents and together we can provide an enjoyable learning experience for your child.

The playgroup is open every morning from 9:00 am – 11:30 am and we cater for a maximum of 24 children per session. Due to demand we have also started an afternoon session on a Monday.  Children can join us when they are 2 years 9 months old.
