Cornish language revival gains momentum with children's event and council strategy

Cornwall council is finalizing a 10-year strategy to make Kernewek a "thriving, forever language" as nearly 200 children attended a Go Cornish celebration.

• Nearly 200 children attended the Go Cornish Celebration at Lys Kernow in Truro, showcasing their learning of the Cornish language.
• Cornwall council is completing a 10-year strategy that aims for every child to leave primary school with basic Cornish and establish the first bilingual school.
• In January, Kernewek was officially recognized under part three of the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages.
• Council leader Leigh Frost linked the language promotion to the campaign for Cornwall to become a devolved nation of the UK.
