ON SATURDAY, 24th October Mudiad Meithrin celebrated its’ fifth annual Awards Ceremony – held on our digital platforms this year because of Covid-19 restrictions.
Mudiad Meithrin received more than 450 nominations for staff and volunteers at Cylchoedd Meithrin (Welsh-medium playgroups), CylchoeddTi a Fi (Welsh-medium baby and toddler groups) or Day Nurseries to win an award in 11 different categories this year.
Leanne Marsh, Head of Services Development for Mudiad Meithrin said:
“We were hoping that many would see this as an opportunity for a Welsh-medium early years setting in their area to be recognised for its work and we had hundreds of nominations! It’s a lovely way for the staff and volunteers to be recognised by being nominated by the parents of the children in their care.”
Dr Gwenllian Lansdown Davies, MudiadMeithrin’sChief Executive, said:
“The Awards Ceremony gives Mudiad Meithrin an opportunity to recognise and thank the staff and volunteers at grassroots level. It was wonderful to have the opportunity to celebrate the good practice that is happening across Wales as well as to recognize staff and volunteers who have given over twenty years of service in the Mudiad’s name.”
