About This Service

This service was established in 2020 to provide care and education to children aged 2 – 6 years old. A registered school aged service is also provided. The service operates Monday – Friday, 8am – 6pm for 49 weeks of the year. This includes a three-hour session funded under the early childhood care and education scheme (ECCE) for eligible children, which operates Monday – Friday, 8.45am – 11.45am for 38 weeks of the year. The service is operated from a converted parochial house in the village of Toomevara in north Tipperary. The service is across the road from the national school where its sister service, Bright Sparks Preschool,is located. The premises is a partial three-storey, detached, period building surrounded by extensive grounds. The facilities on the ground floor include two activity rooms and sanitary accommodation area. The kitchen is located on the lower ground floor. The office and a large activity room that can be divided into two spaces are located on the first floor, with a sanitary accommodation area off the staircase landing between the ground and first floor. The main outdoor play area is at the back of the premises. The Orchard room/Cabin has been created in the outdoor area since the last inspection in 2021. This is a single storey, detached modular building which has been installed in the orchard at the side of the premises and developed as an outdoor learning environment for children attending the service.
