The purpose built playgroup for 2-4 year olds at H.O.P.E. enables children to begin their education in a learning environment which is vibrant, purposeful, challenging and supportive. Our philosophy is to play together, share together and learn together. We are registered for children from 2 years old and are OFSTED registered for full day care, providing the Nursery Education Grant for 3 year olds.

HO.P.E. believes that quality time is a valuable commodity and we therefore keep a high staff/child ratio, enabling 1:1 if needed. Our well qualified, knowledgeable and experienced staff have access to a number of early years professionals, ensuring that individual developmental needs are being met.

All children have access to an appropriate, broad and balanced curriculum which offers opportunities for them to become autonomous and independent learners. We offer an exciting, varied curriculum with Spanish lessons, Music Pool sessions, the musician Pedro and weekly workshops from the Courtyard Theatre with a trip to the Theatre at the end of term.
