I am choosing schools for my DS and considering the local Welsh medium school which I have visited and really liked.
I speak some (learned) Welsh but it's not spoken at home.
DS has been in an English Medium private nursery so has not been immersed in a Welsh Language nursery like some of his peers will have been.
Has anyone here done this? How has it been? What were the first few days/weeks like in terms of confusion for your child?
I have a niggling doubt about doing it because I am worried how he will feel in the first few weeks, maybe not understanding a word etc. Am I just being too precious? He'll pick it up quickly won't he?
Any info from English speaking parents who have done this would be lovely. We are in South Wales rather than in a very Welsh speaking area.
many thanks
