A Successful Launch Party
We would like to thank everyone who attended our official Launch Party last weekend. It was a great success with blue skies all day and over a hundred visitors throughout the day.
The bouncy castle and face painting were a big hit with the children and the cake stall a big hit with the parents. We hope to hold similar ‘fun day’ events in the future.
Launch Party
Please come and join us at our official launch party on Saturday 24th March at our new premises in Summerbridge Methodist Church Hall between 11am and 2pm.
There will be loads of free activities for the kids including a bouncy castle, crafts, story time, face painting and loads more.. Refreshments will be provided.

Changes to Grant Funding Hours
In September 2010 the grant funding increased to 15 hours per week and there is now more flexibility regarding how the time is used.
All children qualify for the grant from the start of the new term after their third birthday.
If your son / daughter is entitled to the grant, you will be able to use this to cover the cost of half or full days at Dacre Banks Pre-School Playgroup.
