The National Eisteddfod has just finished here in Wales. On St David's Day (March 1st) around the country most Primary and many Secondary Schools hold their own Eisteddfoddau or Eisteddfod competitions. At Cefn Fforest Primary we have a day of celebrations which is ended by the official Chairing Ceremony when poems written by our eldest pupils are judged ( all pupils choose a pen name - so real names are not known) - the winning poet comes to the front of the Hall and is allowed to sit in the very special chair - they are announced as 'Bard' (Poet), they then read their poem to the whole gathering - now I know that March 1st was a long time ago but the mp3 recording of our winning poet has only just been found ( hidden on a flash drive) - so here for you is the winning poem from CFP 2007 called 'Down in the Darkness'
