Remember the more entries you compete in, the more chance you will have of winning a prize. There will be a prize for 1st, 2nd, 3rd for each category per key stage (Foundation Phase and Key Stage 2). All entries need to be in by Tuesday 1st March.

All fun and games

Wealthy Victorians enjoyed playing indoor parlour games. Magnets were often used in the making of these games. We were commissioned to find out more about Victorian games that would have been played and create our own using magnets.

Victorian Yard Games

Children in Dosbarth Gwennol have been learning to play a variety of yard games that children in Victorian times would have played. We played hopscotch, tag, follow the leader, skipping skittles. We are now busy writing instructions on how to play these games.
