The Gower Landscape Project has received funding through the Rural Development Plan for Wales 2007-2013, which is funded by the Welsh Government and the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development, and also from the Heritage Lottery Fund under its Landscape Partnership programme.

This part of the Gower app around Rhossili Bay and Worm’s Head explores the theme ‘Sea and Gower’. The trail has seven places of interest. At each one expert soundbites, stories, facts, photographs and information are used to reveal the area’s connection with the sea. There are eight ‘Activity Points’ where text is revealed which engages children in independent learning. How to use this pack This education pack can be used on its own or to complement the Gower app. It contains information and activity ideas at key points along the Rhossili to Worm’s Head trail around the theme of ‘Sea and Gower’. The pack supports curriculum planning, highlighting how the activity suggestions are relevant to a range of learning outcomes in Key Stage 2. There are also additional activities that can be carried out before and after a visit to enrich your topic planning. You may wish to follow the entire trail and carry out the suggested activities at each point of interest. However, the activities can be done in any order and you can take any safe route from one activity to the other. You may want to dip into the pack, picking and choosing particular activities and places along the trail. You may wish to come back on another day to carry out further activities in diferent places along the trail. The activities and app are completely flexible, allowing you to adapt ideas and routes depending on your needs. A route map leaflet is appended to the back of this pack. Discuss and debate At each stop there is an opportunity for children to talk about key issues through discussion and debate. This pack provides guidance on what to talk about at each stop. Risk Assessment Teachers and group leaders are responsible for carrying out their own risk assessments prior to the visit, in accordance with guidance issued by local authorities. We recommend teachers undertake a familiarisation visit in order to write the risk assessment and plan activities before bringing a group on the walk. It is essential a thorough risk assessment is carried out before the trip. Please follow the Countryside Code and consider the impact your visit will have on the environment around you.

If, in your speech, the words finger and singer rhyme, [ŋ] is probably not phonemic for you. z The phoneme /w/ actually has a dual articulation; it is bilabial by virtue of the rounding and near closure of the lips and velar by virtue of the raising of the back of the tongue toward the velum.

    i Opposition to the First World War in Wales Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Cardiff University, 2016, by Aled Eirug ii Summary This thesis sets the opposition to the First World War in Wales in the context of the countrys tradition of activism in favour of peace and against a background of initial enthusiasm in favour of the War. It provides a critical assessment of the academic interpretation of Waless attitudes towards War, assesses the development of opposition to the continuation of the War from Autumn 1914 onwards, and describes the range of anti-war activity and analyses the sources of political and religious opposition to the War. It provides an analysis of the composition of opposition to the War on religious grounds in Wales, and considers the significance of the Christian pacifist organisation, the Fellowship of Reconciliation, together with a review of the extent of the opposition to the War within Nonconformist denominations. The significance of key individuals such as Principal Thomas Rees and key Welsh publications such as Y Deyrnas are highlighted, and particular consideration is given to the role of millenarian sects within the anti-war movement. The politically based anti-war movement in Wales is examined primarily through an analysis of the activities of the Independent Labour Party and its impact in two of its local strongholds, in Briton Ferry and Merthyr Tydfil. It also considers the role of the National Council for Civil Liberties and the No- Conscription Fellowship and those involved in industrial agitation against conscription in south Wales, and the extent to which this featured as part of the anti-war movement.
