A new book commemorating World Book Day has been launched at a Ceredigion school.

Year two pupils wrote and released ‘Bant â Ni gyda Seren a Sbarc' which was launched at Penrhyncoch Primary School on Thursday.

The book was created by pupils in Ceredigion primary schools and the book features seven chain stories which sees the main characters visit various places of importance while learning about local history.

The project was conducted to improve the children’s linguistic skills, digital proficiency, personal interactions and help them gain a better understanding of Ceredigion through the medium of Welsh.

Councillor Wyn Thomas said: “It is great to see the young children working together to create something that is unique to Ceredigion. Well done to everyone who took part.”

S4C children’s television presenter Meleri Williams attended the launch to present part of the story to the pupils while other schools and education centres attended virtually.

All schools are set to receive a paper copy of the book and the book can also be read online - Book Creator | Bant â Ni gyda Seren a Sbarc.
