Seaton Valley Sure Start Children's Centre
Seaton Valley Children's Centre, one of the Blyth Valley Group of Children's Centres, is for parents to be and for children under five years old and their mums, dads and carers.
Our aim is to improve outcomes for young children and their families so children are equipped for life and ready for school, Evidence shows that development during the early years of a child’s life lays an essential foundation for progress throughout life. Parenting and the home learning environment, health and economic wellbeing all have an impact on child development.
Our Centre is at Seaton Valley Children’s Centre, Western Avenue, Seaton Delaval NE25 0EP (next to the Seaton Delaval First School).
We also have a Children’s Centre base at Seghill First School
You will also see Children’s Centre activities running in other venues across Seaton Valley often in partnership with other agencies in the community e.g. at community centres, parks, Seaton Delaval Hall
