PLAY LEARN AND GROW HEALTHY
An exciting Project being delivered in Carmarthenshire
What is it?
This is a 3-year BIG Lottery funded, research project led by Clybiau Plant Cymru Kids’ Clubs and working in partnership with Mudiad Ysgolion Meithrin and Wales Pre-school Providers Association. Whilst working primarily with children aged 7/8 years and 10/11 years through a ‘buddying’ scheme, it will extend to reach younger children aged from 2 upwards and their families.
What will it do?
Between now and November 2011 the project aims to change children’s attitude, awareness and behaviour towards more physical activities and making healthier food choices.
How will this be done?
A range of resources will be produced and the ‘buddies’ will do these activities with the other children in the out of school childcare clubs and in childminder settings. Some resources will be adapted and used with younger children in pre school playgroups and cylchoedd.
How will you know if it works?
At the beginning of the project baseline data will be collected on children’s level of activity and eating patterns. On a termly basis further data will be collected to see if the children are enjoying more physical activities and eating healthier food.
