Rascals Community Playgroup was first opened on the 3rd of November 1989 in the Village Centre, Plumbridge Road, Gortin. The new millenium brought with it new purpose built premises located at the Owenkillew Building in Main Street, Gortin which opened on the 4th September 2000. The group is run by a Management Committee formed from past and present parents. We are registered by Western Health and Social Care Trust on an annual basis and are also inspected by the E.T.I (Education and Training Inspectorate) to evaluate the quality of our provision. An Early Years specialist also visits our establishment offering support to help us maintain our high quality learning environment. Curriculum
"The curriculum for young children includes the totality of their experiences within the setting. It is not just the play materials but everythig they feel, do, hear and see - adults' behaviour included. All areas of childrens learning are integrated and equally important"


We offer a broad balanced relevant play based curriculum covering all areas of chldrens development. Each child is encouraged to develop at his/her own pace learning through play and other relevant experiencesEach child is encouraged to develop at his/her own pace learning through play and other relevant experiences

If you’re considering pre-school education for your child in September 2027, the Education Authority (EA) wants you to be aware of a number of changes to the process for applying 📢

The aim of the Pre-School Education Programme is to provide one year of high quality, funded pre-school education, for every child whose parents want it.

It isn’t compulsory and parents can apply if they want to, by listing in their order of preference, the pre-school settings to which they would be happy to send their child to.

We have published some information for parents and carers, including key dates, on our website at 👉 https://ow.ly/2z9c50ZX5t5

Further information on the procedure for pre-school admissions will be shared with parents, schools and settings in coming weeks.

📢 Key dates will also be communicated for applying for Primary One, Year 8 post primary and Senior High School places.

Updates will be published on https://ow.ly/Kn4K50ZX5t4 and on the EA’s social media channels.
