The simple objective of the Language Charter is to provide a clear framework, which can be used to promote and increase the use of Welsh by children in a whole school context. In a nutshell, the Charter’s main aim is to promote a strong Welsh ethos in our school and to provide a range of enriching activities that propel the children to enjoy learning Welsh.

The Language Charter exhorts participation from every member of the school community, and members of the school workforce and council, the pupils and their parents, school governors and the wider community are all encouraged to take full ownership of it. The Criw Cymraeg (Welsh Crew) are instrumental in leading and driving the Language Charter forward at Phillipstown Primary.

During October, year 4 children went on a residential visit to Cardiff Bay! The aim of the visit was to learn lots of Welsh, to explore our local culture and heritage, to try new things and to have lots of fun! We managed to do all of this! We aim to continue with this visit each year for our year 4 children!
