St David's Day is
celebrated in Wales and by Welsh people throughout the world on 1st March.
To help you celebrate with your kids and learn about Wales and Welsh
customs, we have put together a fun collection of ideas and activities
including colouring pages, puzzles, jigsaws, printables and much more!
Saint David (known as Dewi Sant in the Welsh language) is the patron
saint of Wales. He was a Celtic monk who lived in the 6th Century and
was Archbishop of Wales. His influence is shown by the number of
churches dedicated to him in Wales.
We've got flags, games and lots of writing frames / notebooking pages and
mini booklets of famous Welsh men and women (and men and women associated with
Wales) for you to print and enjoy in your
homes and classrooms! St David's Day Printables
For kids learning Welsh - or the curious - we have a new collection
