Parents and Committee
Parkview prides itself on how staff and parents work together to enrich each child's learning journey at Parkview. As a community-led pre-school with charitable status, we are run by a committee of parents with children attending or have previously attended the pre-school. This collaboration between parents and staff makes Parkview feel like a family endeavour in the truest sense.
2026/2027 Committee:
Chair: Sabrina Gardner
Secretary:: Scarlett Smyth
Treasurer: Delphine Stewart -Jones.

As a charity- run setting, we rely on the support, ideas and enthusiasm of our committee members to help our playgroup thrive.
Whether you have a little time or a lot, your skills, experience and fresh ideas can make a real difference here at Parkview. No previous experiences is needed, just willingness to get involved and help shape our playgroup.
If you would like more information speak to any of our members of staff and we can guide you in the right area!

Special appearances
Parents are frequently asked if they have, or know of people who have, an unusual or special skill or subject to tell the children about. Some of the special appearances Parkview has had over the years include those from musicians, firemen, doctors, pet-owners (with their pet!), vets and authors. These visits and, in some cases, hands-on experiences, are really exciting for the children, and provide valuable enrichment to their learning.
The Committee
Committee members work together to help the playgroup run smoothly behind the scenes. This might include sharing ideas, helping with fundraising events, supporting decision-making, promoting the playgroup in the local community, or using your skills and experience to help us grow and develop.
Whether you're great with numbers, enjoy organising events, have creative ideas, or simply want to make a positive difference for local children and families, there's a place for you on our committee. Every contribution, big or small, helps us continue providing a fantastic early years experience for our children.
Most importantly, being part of the committee is a chance to meet other families, have your voice heard, and play an important role in shaping the future of Parkview Community Playgroup.
