Go Cornish

Go Cornish – Trewydhgi

Here at Trewydhgi (Trewirgie), we are proud to have signed-up for the ‘Go Cornish’ award scheme.

We want everyone to enjoy their own sense of Cornishness and to feel part of our unique Cornish language. ‘Omlowenhe gans Kernewek!’ (“Have fun with Cornish”!)

As part of the Go Cornish programme, our children and staff are learning and celebrating the Cornish language and we are really proud to have been one of the first schools to be awarded the Bronze Award. Miss Maun was also awarded the Champion of Champions for her enthusiasm and dedication. We have also won lots of other awards from the Gorsedh Kernow awards. 

Look out for photos of our Cornish language activities, games and craft sessions here and on our Facebook page.

We have a Kryw Kernewek (Cornish Crew) which is made up from members of each class. We have bilingual signs up around the school and try and use some Cornish each day. In Nursery our children learn to say hello and good morning and enjoy stories, rhymes and songs in Cornish. In reception, the children learn to count to 5 and answer the register as well as learning please and thank you. In Year 1 and 2, the children learn many more Cornish words and phrases. 

Miss Maun runs an after school club for children who are keen to learn more.
