Welsh
Cymraeg
At Trellech we are passionate about the Welsh language. It is not only of cultural importance but has many benefits such as:
It keeps your brain fit and healthy!
- Speaking another language makes your brain more creative
- It may help you to learn other skills easier-like playing an instrument
- It increases the amount of time you can concentrate for
- Your brain is healthier when you get old
It will help you learn other languages more easily!
- When you can speak two languages it is easier for your brain to learn more
- People who speak two languages can go on to learn many more
It helps you do better at school!
- Children who speak two languages often get higher marks in school as they get older
- It improves your memory so you can remember more information
It gives you a sense of Welsh identity and culture!
- Speaking Welsh helps you to understand the street and place names around you-lots have special meanings that you may otherwise have missed!
- It gives you a sense of belonging to Wales and its history
In Welsh, pupils are developing their use of vocabulary: grammar, spellings and sentence structure within discrete lessons and daily Welsh lessons.
We ensure that language patterns are embedded orally prior to engaging in written work.
