Criw Cymraeg

Beth ydy Criw Cymraeg?

Criw Cymraeg is a team of Welsh enforcers encouraging the use of Welsh throughout the school. We meet on a weekly basis to think of new Gair/Ymadrodd Yr wythnos (word/phrase of the week) and to discuss the targets we have achieved and what we need to complete in each term.  

We started the year with the whole school completing a questionnaire. From that we were able to work out where to head with developing our Welsh in Ysgol Y Waun. Here is a list of the things we have completed so far:

• Introduced a Welsh assembly (Gwasanaeth Cymraeg)
• Tocyn Iaiths in each class
• Ddraig Coch's sent home in each class every week to spend time and promote Welsh
• Gair/Ymadrodd yr wythnos
• Welsh prayers everyday
• Learnt some new Welsh songs
• Welsh learning walk to look at displays
• We all took part in Wythnos Cymraeg completing activties and entering competitions which our parents were invited in to see.
• Created Welsh posters
• Written a peice for the termly newsletter

Next this is what we need to do:

• Look at the Welsh apps we have and try and spend some time using them to promote Welsh
• Look at what other welsh apps we can introduce
• Complete an audit of Welsh books and timetable guided reading in Welsh into each class
• Continue to add Welsh onto every display in every classroom and area inside/outside the school
• Continue to write/update the termly newsletter

Here are some of the Welsh songs we have been learning in our Gwasanaeth Cymraeg
