Why learning Welsh is good!

As a Criw we discussed why learning Welsh is good. We have visitors, like Ameer, into school who have talked with us about

how speaking Welsh helped him.

These are the reasons why we think learning Welsh is good for us:

* we can communicate with lots of different people

* it might help us get a job as us will know a different language and have a different skill that will give us an advantage over someone else

* we live in Wales, so if we go to different places eg Llangrannog where people speak more Welsh it will help us

* it will help the government reach its goal of 1 million Welsh speakers by 2050

* research has shown that people who speak a second do better in tests

*  it's part of who we are we don't want the language to die
