Minister for Children, Disability and Equality Norma Foley is inviting children from Early Learning and Care and School-Age Childcare services across the country to take part in Children’s Creative Spaces celebrating the theme “Where I learn and play”. The aim is to give children the opportunity to express creativity, belonging, and their own experiences of their setting (Early Years or School‑Age Childcare/After‑School) adding their voice as part of the National Conversation on Education: the First Five Years and School-Age Childcare.
