The Welsh Council

The role of the Cyngor Cymraeg (Welsh Council) is important in promoting the Welsh language and culture among pupils in our school. The Cyngor Cymraeg is a group of pupils who act as language ambassadors within the school. Their role includes the following:

1. Promoting Welsh

• Encouraging their peers to speak Welsh in school and in their everyday lives.
• Creating a positive atmosphere towards using the language.

2. Leading Language Activities

• Organising and hosting activities in Welsh, such as competitions, workshops, or music and sports sessions.
• Taking part in celebrations like St David’s Day or Welsh Language Week.

3. Being Role Models

• Setting a positive example by using Welsh confidently and naturally.
• Inspiring others to appreciate and use of the language.

4. Supporting Learners

• Helping other children who may be learning Welsh or are unsure about using it.

5. Working with the Community

• Collaborating with school staff, parents, and local communities to support the use of Welsh beyond the classroom.
