Tin Hut

The Tin Hut

There has been a playgroup at our “Tin Hut” site for 50 years. The setting accepts children from the term in which they become 2½, providing a warm and welcoming environment for what is often the child’s first experience of day care.
On offer is a wide range of educational resources and equipment ensuring that children can experience inspiring activities. Our large garden and outdoor play equipment provides children with exciting opportunities to explore, have fun and learn in a safe and secure environment.
