About our playgroup

Bluebell Heath Playgroup is situated in the grounds of Heathwood Lower School. We have been operating at this school since 2007, and have grown with the school in that time.

We are committed to providing your child with the best possible care, which is shown by our two outstanding Ofsted inspections attained within 18 months. Bluebell Heath Playgroup is also featured in a special article on the Ofsted website
