Introducing The Rainbow Fish
In January, children in our Rainbow Room were introduced to the much-loved story The Rainbow Fish
The Forest of Dean Children’s Opportunity Centre is a charitable organisation that provides care, support and facilities for children with additional needs, as well as for those without. Our mission is to enable all children to grow and learn together in our childcare setting.
From 3 months to preschool, there is a place for everyone at the Opportunity Centre.
At the Opportunity Centre, we offer childcare for children from birth to school age. We are passionate about giving each child the best start during their early years and work hard to ensure all children are safe and happy in our care.
As the parent or carer of a child with additional needs, you know the extra understanding, support and encouragement you require. Our Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO) is there to ensure you and your little one feel supported at each stage of the journey.
Children who are eligible can attend all year round for Early Years care and learning.
Please enquire to manager@childoc.org.uk to see if you are eligible.
The team at the Forest of Dean Children’s Opportunity Centre is made up of childcare practitioners highly experienced in working with children with additional and complex needs.
Alongside our childcare practitioners, our very special team is made up of fundraisers, finance staff and trustees from various backgrounds.

Thanks to the fundraising events held last term, we’ve been able to purchase new toys and equipment.

Free flow means children have access to the outdoors for most of the day, whatever the weather.
