Creating a sense of belonging

Belonging is a sense of happiness and feeling accepted in the environment you’re in. It is important to children’s development and is another developmental pathway in the Curriculum for Wales.

Hannah Rowley, a deputy leader from Cylch Meithrin Nant Dyrys in Treorchy, introduces us to belonging in a playgroup setting. We’ll hear how local trips to hairdressers, charity shops and into the wider community are some of the ways Hannah and team use to create a sense of belonging for children.
