Preschool Programmes

Wriggle & Rhyme and Storytime are programmes that encourage learning through reading stories with rhymes, music, and play. During each session we share a variety of stories, songs, rhymes and other fun book related activities. Preschool programmes are run during term time and are 30-minute sessions.

Wriggle & Rhyme

The Wriggle & Rhyme programme includes music, movement, rhymes, and a book, and is suitable for babies and under 2s.

It’s a great opportunity to bond with your baby/toddler and meet others in the community, join our relaxed, fun group for interactive songs, rhymes, and books that will delight and develop your baby or toddler.
