Early Years Courses

Visits and Experiences

A variety of visits and experiences to enhance and complement your learning will be organised throughout your study time at the University.

Some visits are part of the lectures, and we will arrange visits to settings or organisations that support your learning. Such visits have included Down to Earth in the Gower and Pentre Bach in Ceredigion.

We also invite experts in to support your learning. Recently Size of Wales, Ignite, Play Specialists, Forest School Specialists and Musical Practitioners have visited different groups of students.

Other visits are optional and run if sufficient numbers of students wish to take part. To date, there has been an annual two-night visit to London. There are also visits planned to Edinburgh and Scandinavia. 

Early Years staff plan carefully so we can offer the best value for money. Overnight visits include B&B. These visits are explained to students early in the academic year so that students can plan in advance.  A deposit is required to secure your place followed by regular instalments- which helps to spread the cost.
