Cynefin

Cynefin

“Cynefin” is a Welsh term defined by Curriculum for Wales as ‘the place where we feel we belong, where the people and landscape around us are familiar, and the sights and sounds are reassuringly recognisable.’

We as a setting value the benefits of connecting with our community and children from all sections benefit from the resources we have available on our doorstep.

Children regularly go out for walks, exploring the environment and connecting with nature. We access the local parks, attend the local library, visit the market held in the Queen’s hall, explore the shops, visit local cafe’s, restaurants and hotels.

Throughout the year we take our children to Folly Farm, Bluestone, pumpkin patch, the beach and many more to explore the wider environment and what the area in which we live has to offer.

In the setting we value and incorporate the spoken culture of Wales throughout the activities, with incidental Welsh, introducing Welsh words in play and activities. We incorporate the Welsh dimension into our play spaces and activities, through words, songs, rhymes, dance, stories, displays, signs and posters.
