The service we provide offers the children a wide choice of play opportunities from a variety of stimulating indoor and outdoor activities such as sand, playdough other messy play activities, puzzles, construction toys, colouring,  and arts & crafts. The children can enjoy stories, playing musical instruments, dancing and singing. The toys are age appropriate and at the regulated standards for babies and children 5 and under.

Preschool

Our aim is to provide a culturally sensitive environment for all children where they are cared for and given many play opportunities and activities that meet their educational and holistic developmental needs.

At the South Riverside Community Development Centre we welcome children aged from 3 months up to 5 years for our preschool programmes, where we provide a safe and caring environment, celebrating diversity and valuing each child. Children with special needs are welcomed and are encouraged to play with their peers. Our crèche facilities can accommodate up to 16 preschool children

The YCPP provides continual professional development in order to keep their staff up to date with any new ideas and initiatives in the sector.
