St Mary's Catholic Primary School - Ysgol Gynradd Gatholig y Santes Fair

Cymraeg Campus

The Cymraeg Campus Language Charter has been created to develop Welsh in English medium schools.

We have a Criw Cymraeg, which is made of children from each class who encourage us to speak Welsh in school. They teach us the Brawddeg yr Wythnos each week so that we can practise using our Welsh.

We have ten targets to achieve to gain the Bronze Cymraeg Campus Award

  1. A visual Welsh ethos is beginning to be established
  2. A majority of the pupils have an understanding and respect for the culture and language
  3. Pupils are beginning to speak Welsh in a variety of situations within their classrooms
  4. Pupils are beginning to speak Welsh in a variety of situations outside their classrooms
  5. There is a weekly Welsh assembly
  6. Pupils are encouraged to use Apps and websites to learn Welsh
  7. The school organises some enrichment activities to develop pupils use and enjoyment of Welsh
  8. Welsh guided reading groups are held fortnightly
  9. Aspects of one subject is beginning to be taught through the medium of Welsh
  10. A majority of the pupils have a positive attitude towards learning Welsh
