Treganna opened its doors in 1987 to 15 reception-age pupils and a small year 1 class. There were two members of staff and 30 pupils. In September 2013 we opened our new building with over 50 members of staff and nearly 500 hundred children. Although the facilities at Treganna are fantastic, big isn't always better.

As a Welsh school, we encourage an understanding and knowledge of the heritage of Wales as well as producing fluent Welsh speakers. This is a Welsh school that has traditionally welcomed children from backgrounds that are linguistically Welsh-speaking and those that are not. The school originally opened its doors for the first time on 4th October 1965. This came after a period of many efforts by some of the parents of Burry Port as well as the friends of the school. There is no doubt that without the hard work and commitment of these people there would be no provision of Welsh-medium education in the area today. It is our belief as a staff that a close relations…

Ysgol Gymraeg Aberystwyth was the first designated welsh medium school in Wales which was established in 1939 by Syr Ifan ab Owen Edwards. There were only seven pupils in the school during the early years but by now the school has grown to over 400 pupils. The children come from the town of Aberystwyth and the surrounding rural areas. The school has grown constantly during the eighties and nineties as more and more parents have seen the value of a welsh medium education. There is a marked increase in the number of nonwelsh speaking parents that send their children to the school as they see the advantages of bilingualism.
