From the Wikipedia article

Mudiad Meithrin (Welsh for 'nursery movement'), formerly Mudiad Ysgolion Meithrin ('nursery schools movement') is a voluntary movement specialising in the provision of Welsh-medium early years education, including nursery groups. It aims to give every young child in Wales the opportunity to benefit from early years services and experiences through the medium of Welsh. These voluntary groups are often crucial in the subsequent establishment of a Welsh-medium primary school in the area.
