StartBright Balgaddy is one of our gorgeous, purpose-built spaces offering local families preschool and afterschool services. Here we boast of two beautiful, bright, spacious rooms for our children to enjoy, that open up onto a big back garden, perfect for burning up their endless energy.
Sinead Sealy is our Centre Manager here, and is one of our longest serving staff members. She and her team have been a dependable presence here since we opened in 2012. Under Sinead’s watch, we are able to provide families in the local community with a variety of early learning opportunities for their children and can help avail of government schemes too. If your child will be attending Divine Mercy Junior School at some point in the next couple of years, StartBright Balgaddy might be the perfect start to your child’s education.
“We believe that each child is unique, with their own individual abilities and interests. Provided with the right environment, interactions, and guidance, children are able to make decisions about their own learning.”
