Next year 4 common activities will be done and after each activity a progress report will be given
The first assesments will be written on a paper

After the meeting we met a Welsh author, David Owen. He made us a present of his signed books about Wales. Also we have been given traditionally dressed dolls made by a kid’s mummy. We loved them, they were fabulous.
Afterwards we went to the Mayor's Parlour in Clydach Vale to see Rob Smith the Mayor of Rhondda Cynon Taf. The Mayor and his wife kindly greeted us in his ceremonial costume and we were honoured by meeting them. He was wearing a brilliant medal which was symbolising the past and the future. He made a speech about the history of Wales and how hard they worked to develop their country. We asked him questions and he informed us kindly. We told him that we have seen the St. Fagan’s museum and we were impressed by seeing how they protected their past and history. They served us tea, coffee and Welsh cakes. After that we have been given plaque and files as a gift. We took photos all together and then they sent us off kindly.
The German group has left for London and we said goodbye to them. Janet, Sandra and Dawn accompanied us during our tour in Cardiff.
We voice our gratitude and love to our friends in Wales. Thank you all for everything.
