  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

    • I have developed more awareness and have expanded more self thinking when observing the children during play/ an activity. I have learnt many skills in the apprenticeship webinar training sessions and have really benefited from the experience. for example, i am so much more confident walking in and getting on with my role and preparing food. I have further developed changing nappies and clothing.
