Pirantide in Schools

Pirantide saw MAGA heading east, to Saltash and to Bishop Cornish School.

Image of Bishop Cornish bilingual signThere Pol met with a young class and led the children in learning a bit of Cornish and singing in the language, which was enjoyed by one and all.

Afterwards they made pasties – not easy for children aged five or six.  The following Friday Rob Reynolds went there to follow-up with more work on Cornish with the children. A good way for children to experience Pirantide!

Another school MAGA visited on St. Piran’s Day was the Halwin primary school.

Following in the footsteps of Cllr Jenkin (Chair of the Governors), children of all ages learnt basic phrases with ease and seemed genuinely delighted at doing arithmetic in Cornish. The day was made all the easier for us by one of the parents lending a hand… as it happened he could speak Cornish and had already helped us by teaching the children the basics of ‘meet n greet’.

Thank you Mike Trounson!
