Seeds Creative

As part of our commitment to reflective practice and developing new approaches to early years work, we offered our practitioners the opportunity to apply for a bursary to support them in carrying out a small-scale piece of work on a topic of their interest.      

​

As part of the work, the practitioners completed a short report in order to share their learning and a series of podcasts which are available below.
