What your organisation does

Aghgallon preschool is a community run service offered to all members of the local community and beyond. It allows 3 to 5 year olds to benefit from an early introduction to education through play and interaction with others. The children learn through the six main areas of preschool, language, social, physical, the world around us, mathematical

and personal development. Our preschool is funded through fundraising and donations and any grants that we can receive. It is run by a committee of volunteers. The children are provided with a range of play materials and equipment.
