Event for Learners at Sain Ffagan - 12 September! Save the date!
I am helping to organise a special event in Cardiff to celebrate Wythnos Dathlu Dysgu - following a suggestion from someone on the SSiW forum, as it happens! The BBC run tours around the main building in Cardiff, and I have persuaded them to run a special one for learners in conjunction with S4C. If it goes well, they will consider running them more often. There are two levels of tour (roughly Sylfaen and Canolradd/Uwch), and there’ll be a tutor on hand to support. I’ll be there too (unless Covid blights me again like it did at the Eisteddfod!) I would really love to meet some SSiW learners there

Would you like me to share that on Twt.Cymru too, Sara?

I’m just copying the booking link for the BBC tour here as it’s a bit hard to see in the poster:

Diolch!!
I’ll have one to share soon (today, hopefully) about an event happening in Carmarthen … but I’ll have a search to see if there’s a separate Carmarthen thread (and start one, if not)

A guided tour of the Canolfan Mileniwm in Bae Caerdydd (Cardiff Bay) in Welsh - you need to book before the end of September using this link: mentercaerdydd.cymru/event/taith_dywys_canolfan_mileniwm_cymru/29
A chance for a chat in Cymraeg TOMORROW - Saturday 21 September:
Fancy a bit of standup comedy in Cymraeg?
I’m just bumping this, because I’ve heard that it’s selling fast and I don’t want SSiWers to miss out! There are more spaces on the Sylfaen/Canolradd tour than the Canolradd/Uwch one, so I would definitely encourage those more towards the beginning of their Welsh journey to book on.
And I can’t promise it will still be there, but at the moment there’s a Dr Who exhibition in the staff canteen with a Tardis and a Dalek and a load of costumes from the show…
There was also talk of dropping in to see Caryl Parry Jones in her studio before she goes on air.
