Amser Cymraeg Yr Hen Galan The Old New Year Welsh Traditions
Blwyddyn Newydd Dda! This week we are learning about some old Welsh traditions. In some parts of Wales they celebrate New Year on January 13th Yr Hen Galan. Children would knock on the door of their friends and family and sing a song. ( we definitely can't do this at the moment!). They would then be given some money as a present! Children would also carry a decorated apple called a 'perllan'.
Can you draw and label your perllan using Welsh. We have written lots of instructions in Welsh using bossy commands. Can you have a go at writing some instructions using the pictures below to help you?
