Dear Parents,

We are excited to invite you to join us for our wonderful celebration of Welsh culture at the School Eisteddfod on Wednesday 5th March at 9:30 am. This event promises to be a memorable occasion, showcasing the incredible talent and creativity of our pupils.

Tickets will be on sale this week, and we would love to see you there to support the children. The event will feature:

🎶 Songs performed by each year group
📖 Poetry recitals and dance performances
🏆 Chairing of the Bard – Year 6 pupils competing in our poetry competition

In addition to the main performances, pupils will take part in a variety of exciting in-school competitions, including:

✍️ Handwriting challenges

We also encourage pupils to enter the Eisteddfod homework competitions, which include:

🏗️ Model-making
🍰 Baking
💻 Digital creations
🔎 Scavenger hunts

As always, our Eisteddfod is a house competition, with every entry earning points for their house:

🥇 1st place – 4 points
🥈 2nd place – 3 points
🥉 3rd place – 2 points

Young Performer Competition:
Pupils in Years 2-6 who play an instrument, dance, or perform are invited to take part in our Young Performer Competition. The preliminary heat will take place on Friday 21st February, and Criw Cymraeg (along with Mrs. Antoniou, our Welsh Coordinator) will select three finalists to perform at the Eisteddfod.

After the performances, we will hold an awards ceremony, where prizes, certificates, and the Eisteddfod Trophy for the winning house will be presented.

We look forward to celebrating Welsh culture and talent with you at this exciting event!

Warm regards,
Mr. Griffiths
