Last week Meinir Mathias came to speak to our year 8 pupils in their art lessons as part of this term's work. She made an interesting and educational presentation about the content and subjects of her work, her style and her experience of working as a professional artist. Pupils were able to ask questions and to discuss her work based on the Rebecca Riots. We look forward to seeing our pupils' work inspired by Meinir's style and subject.
The pupils have enjoyed learning and using Welsh idioms in their work . Here is a video of them performing their favourite idioms.
