Hi me again! Sorry I'm flooding the board but isn't really relevant to my other Q.
Without giving too much away my little one is adopted from Wales and I am in England. Had be been brought up in Wales he would have been schooled bilingually and the government would continue to send him bookstart books in English Welsh etc as part of an initiative by the Welsh government to ensure the survival of Welsh language.
When adopting him we had conversations about how we plan to honour his Welsh heritage and among other things we want to ensure that he is given the opportunity to have sone fluency in Welsh although unfortunately we aren't Welsh speakers. Websites online recommend sending to Welsh medium schools but these obviously assume you are a Welsh family living in Wales.
Does anyone have any advice as to how I might be able to support him with Welsh as he gets older given that we are in England and not speakers ourselves? Xxx
