    Default It's official! I have lost the plot!

    I have this evening signed up to do Geiriau Bach a Level 4 qualification which is great in itself but maybe not whilst trying to do a Level 5 one at the same time

    My family think I am nuts but I have waited for this particular course for a good couple of years and I really don't want to pass up the chance of doing it. It will give me a Higher Education Certificate in Bi-lingual practice in Early Years . It is a great course, very practical and will help me massively with my Welsh speaking children. Plus it will look good on my CV as Welsh is a prerequisite for lots of jobs around here.

    Thanks to Tulip for pointing me in the right direction and thanks to the Welsh Assembly Government who are running it for free

    Llongifarchiadau

    You will love the course if you:-

    Love singing

    Love playing

    Love having a laugh

    Love making things

    Love meeting people

    Love doing strange things like building a house on a river bank from flotsum (SP)

    Love getting new ideas from other people and conferences

    Love doing it all again at home when you are actually working

    All in geiriau bach Cymraeg (little Welsh words) Most perfect course for those that work with children in Wales and have little or no Welsh

    (ps - I found it much easier than the NVQ3 )
    (pps - you can use the theorists again!!)

    Diolch

    Can't wait! I get the impression it is going to be a lot different than my Foundation Degree so should balance out nicely.

    Start in 2 weeks time x
