to have achieved the Investors in Children award.
It is an independent testimony of the hard work, commitment
and professionalism of all the staff and committee at Playgroup.
We are proud of the children at the group who have helped us
achieve this award. And the children seem delighted too.
Their smiles were particularly noticeable when we mentioned
the celebratory cake.” Helen
continued: “We would love to see anyone at our open day who is
interested in sending their child to Kineton Playgroup, who has been
at Playgroup in the past or is just interested to find out what we
do.
Everyone is welcome.” Sue
Harris, the Assessor, from the PLA said: “All the children at
Kineton Playgroup are supported to reach their full potential and
staff are skilled at differentiating activities according to
individual needs. The staff
