Bobtails Playgroup

Bobtails is again very proud to report that our Playgroup at Horley Infant School received an OUTSTANDING Judgement from Ofsted in July 2008.  This is the third Outstanding Judgement we have received at our Horley Playgroups in the last 4 years!

Ofsted arrived unannounced at our Horley Infant playgroup just two days after we moved into our new building!  Ofsted were so impressed with our playgroup that they made NO recommendations to improve it!  This is extremely rare!  You can view all of our reports online on the Ofsted website.

Follow our OUTSANDING Judgement from Ofsted, Surrey County Council have awarded us a grant for £26,000.00 to add an outside learning environment to our fantastic new playgroup building “The Warren”. 

Parents and Children were involved in what the money will be spent on which will include a outdoor gazebo classroom, new playhouse, a sensory and vegetable garden, and lots more.  We will also be using different textures including a mixture of Astro-turf and rubber incorporating a road and river!  New play equipment is also being brought.  This should all be in place for when we open in September!!

Bobtails children helped move into their new purpose built playgroup called “The Warren”

The children enjoyed four weeks in the new building before we broke up in July.  The fantastic  new building offers the children the opportunity to have free-flow learning between inside and outside.  The children continue to use the rest of the school facilities including the hall and library which eases transition between playgroup and school.
