Castle Kindergarten

In Washington at Albany, Sunderland at Hylton Castle, Durham at Sacriston, and Bishop Auckland's Staindrop.
Our goal is to give every kid a nurturing setting that serves as a daytime replacement for home and is safe, engaging, and highly joyful.
Children can play, explore, learn, and create in both indoor and outdoor spaces that are welcoming, secure, and safe.
Additionally, Castle Kindergarten offers young children after-school care in its facilities.
We provide a rich outdoor environment full of irresistible stimuli, contexts for play and physical activity, exploration, talk and plenty of real experiences and contact with the natural world and with the community.
Our kindergartens are full with lovely objects, intriguing objects, and odd objects that our children encounter every day.
We acknowledge that parents are their children's first and most crucial teachers.
All of our staff firmly believe in working in partnership with parents to provide care and education for their children.
We provide activities for parents and children to share together at home and we have a good system for parents to pass on information to let us know about what their children have been enjoying at home.
All children - babies, toddlers and those getting ready for their next step into primary school form secure bonds with their care givers.
