| Are you able to care for children whose main language is neither English nor Welsh? Care is provided using English as the main language; however, all children are also introduced to incidental Early Years Welsh through songs and activities arranged and implemented by the Welsh co-ordinator whose first language is the medium of Welsh. We employ Welsh speaking staff to work with all children where possible. Where possible we aim to support all children with their first language. |
