What we do
We offer high-quality Flying Start childcare for children living in local Flying Start areas from the term following their second birthday up until the end of the term that they turn three. Children are entitled to a 2.5 hour session (afternoon only) per day, 5 days a week, term time only.
Our setting provides the opportunity for children to be happy and explore their potential in a safe, secure, and stimulating environment. Our high quality and experienced childcare staff encourage children to be curious and inquisitive and participate in a variety of activities that will promote all areas of learning and care. We promote Welsh Language throughout the sessions using songs, rhymes, and stories as well as short words and sentences.
Alternatively, we can offer Welsh Medium provision at other Flying Start Childcare Settings.
