Croeso!

We have elected 13 enthusiastic members to our Criw Cymraeg Council - a pupil led initiative to promote incidental Welsh and a Welsh ethos within the school. Each member is passionate about the Welsh language and heritage and has lots of ideas on how we can drive Welsh forward in Gwauncelyn, ensuring that the school's vision for Welsh has a high focus. 

Y Criw Cymraeg or 'Welsh Crew' have an important role within the school. Some of their jobs include:

• Helping to promote a Welsh ethos and the Welsh language. 
• Ensuring that pupils enjoy learning Welsh through daily Helpwr Heddiw sessions and weekly Welsh lessons.
• Encouraging pupils and staff to communicate through the medium of Welsh.
• Ensuring that pupils understand that Welsh is an important part of our culture.
• Leading Welsh assemblies.
• Helping to plan and organise special Welsh celebration days/events such as Shwmae Day, Dydd Santes Dwynwen, Dydd Gwyl Dewi, Yr Eisteddfod etc.

We are currently working towards achieving Y Wobr Arian (The Silver Award) and the Criw Cymraeg have decided that they want to focus on Target 1 - Establishing a visual Welsh ethos around the school.
