Wow – What celebrations we had for Refugee Week 2024!
What a week it was, to kick off the week we received 311(and still more to come!) Welcome Postcards and were able to decorate thebuilding to ensure the words of welcome rang loud. We received WelcomePostcards from local schools, community groups and Churches. So much love andeffort was put into them by children from across the city, and we’re so proudto share them with our families. The Welcome Postcards will next be on displayat our Trinity Centre Exhibition at Cardiff Museum in the Autumn.

Derbyniwyd Cardiau Post Croesogan ysgolion lleol, grwpiau cymunedol ac Eglwysi. Rhoddwyd cymaint o gariad acymdrech iddynt gan blant o bob rhan o’r ddinas, ac rydym mor falch o’u rhannugyda’n teuluoedd. Bydd y Cardiau Post Croeso yn cael eu harddangos nesaf ynArddangosfa Canolfan y Drindod yn Amgueddfa Caerdydd yn yr Hydref.
On the Wednesday, we had 2 visits from local schools – firstoff was Stacey Primary School Y6 class that presented us with a fantastic WelcomeBanner. The class then joined the WRC Playgroup, joining in with songs with thelittle ones. Next up we had a visit from StDavid’s College students that had comeup with the idea of Welcome Packs. They filled them with colouring books andcrayons, notepads for adults, toiletries and other items that could support SanctuarySeeking families. We’re so grateful to both schools for their support and forextending their hands to welcoming Sanctuary Seeking families to Cardiff.
Ar y dydd Mercher, cawsom 2 ymweliad gan ysgolion lleol – ycyntaf oedd dosbarth Bl6 Ysgol Gynradd Stacey a gyflwynodd Baner Croeso gwych ini. Yna ymunodd y dosbarth â Chylch Chwarae WRC, gan ymuno â chaneuon gyda'rrhai bach. Nesaf cawsom ymweliad gan fyfyrwyr Coleg Dewi Sant a oedd wedimeddwl am y syniad o Becynnau Croeso. Fe wnaethant eu llenwi â llyfrau lliwio achreonau, padiau nodiadau i oedolion, pethau ymolchi ac eitemau eraill a allaigefnogi teuluoedd sy'n Ceisio Noddfa. Rydym mor ddiolchgar i’r ddwy ysgol am eucefnogaeth ac am estyn eu dwylo i groesawu teuluoedd Sy’n Ceisio Noddfa i Gaerdydd.
