Parent and Toddler Playgroups

Leweston Nursery runs two friendly, weekly toddler and parent groups, each offering a unique experience for the very youngest children. Please note that sessions for Aquatots and Forest School must be booked in advance.
Aquatots (2)

Aquatots | Wednesdays 09.45am - 10.30am (Term-Time Only Unless Advertised)

Aquatots is a pool-based parent and toddler group for children from 3 months to 4 years, designed to introduce your baby to swimming through play and build water confidence in a fun and friendly environment.

 The group takes place at the Leweston School Pool and is led by Ali Parnell, the School’s Pool Manager and a qualified swimming instructor. Ali also leads the swimming sessions for Nursery and Pre-Prep.

The pool is heated but during the winter months, children may want to wear a ‘wet suit’ style swimming costume.

Sessions cost £5 and due to popularity of the sessions, booking is essential.                           

PLEASE MEET AT THE SCHOOL POOL.

Forest School (1)

Forest School | Tuesdays 10.30am - 11.30am (Term-Time Only)

Our Forest School Playgroup offers children from 0 to 4 years old the opportunity to sample the Forest School curriculum. The group has been established for over fifteen years and we are always pleased to welcome new families.

The all-weather, outdoor group is based in our beautiful Enchanted Wood and activities include den building, clay faces, leaf pictures, seasonal hunts and more. Our outdoor canopy provides a dry area for stories and chat but children (and adults) will need weather proof clothing. Babycino and all activities are included. Sessions cost £6 and must be booked in advanced. Please just book for your child. Parents attend free.

PLEASE MEET OUTSIDE PRE-PREP GARDEN
