New Wibli Wobli staff

You may have noticed that Easha and Aimee have joined our growing Wibli Wobli team.

Easha is an experienced practitioner who qualified and practiced in Sri Lanka before moving over to Wales. She is already multi-lingual and is now learning Welsh as well as working in our toddler room.

Aimee is a fluent Welsh speaker and Level 3 qualified childcare practitioner. She will be based across toddlers and preschool and is looking forward to meeting you all and your Wibli Woblis.

All About Patagonia

We have teamed up with a school in Patagonia for the preschool children to share information about our different cultures and life in our respective countries.

Our Wibli Woblis have been so excited to see pictures of children in Patagonia visiting a famous museum Egidio Feruglio and discovering dinosaur bones in the area.

The children have learnt that in Patagonia children mainly speak Welsh and Spanish. Just like our Wibli Woblis who learn Welsh at Wibli Wobli and have weekly Spanish sessions with Kidslingo.
