The Rainbow Centre (Marham) is an all inclusive Centre which caters for children aged 3 months to 12 years. It is open daily throughout the year, except Station Stand downs, Christmas and Bank Holidays, from 7:30 am to 6:00 pm. The Centre offers appropriate care and support from well trained and knowledgeable adults who are experienced in understanding child development and who can consistently offer suitable activities to meet each child's individual need.

The Centre is registered with OFSTED and is a member of the Pre-school Learning Alliance and 4 Children.

Some of the Centre's aims are:
To ensure that the child's best interests are the primary concern in making any decision.
To provide a safe and secure environment where parents are happy in the knowledge that their children have top quality care.
To help children develop their skills and personality fully, teach them about their own and other people's rights and prepare them for adult life.
The Centre hosts up to 179 children at any one session offering integrated care and education through the guidelines of the new Early Years Foundation Stage. We believe that children who begin their education in a learning environment that is vibrant, purposeful, challenging and supportive, stand the best chance of developing into confident and successful learners.
