-My name is Luned Clement. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:27 | |
-I'm 12 years old and I live in -Cardiff, the capital of Wales. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:31 | |
-My Wales | 0:00:57 | 0:01:02 | |
-Living in a city isn't dissimilar -to living in other areas. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:16 | |
-Luned. Time to get up. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
-A usual day starts with -Mam calling me for breakfast. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:23 | |
-It's Monday today so there'll be -loads of homework... | 0:01:23 | 0:01:27 | |
-..and then a harp lesson. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:29 | |
-During term time, the whole -family eats breakfast together. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:39 | |
-Mam and Dad work so everyone has -to be out of the house by 8.30am. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:45 | |
-So it's a bit of a rush. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:49 | |
-Dad's an architect. He designs -houses and other buildings. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:53 | |
-Mam is a teacher in a college. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:56 | |
-She teaches people how -to look after little children. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
-My mother's mother, Mam-gu, -lives with us... | 0:02:01 | 0:02:05 | |
-..and helps to look after us. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:08 | |
-I have two sisters. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
-Lowri's the eldest, she's 13... | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
-..and Bethan is ten years old. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:16 | |
-Are you going anyway? | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
-Come on, you're late. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:21 | |
-We don't live in the centre -of Cardiff. | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
-Our house is on the outskirts, -about three miles from the centre. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:29 | |
-We live quite far from school too. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
-There's a school next-door to us -but it's an English school. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:37 | |
-Our school is a Welsh medium one. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:39 | |
-Careful. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:41 | |
-It's the same rope. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
-Hang on. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:45 | |
-If you're on a rope, -if you put one foot here... | 0:02:45 | 0:02:48 | |
-..the rope isn't that wide, is it? | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
-You have to follow her movements -exactly. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
-Children travel from all over -Cardiff to attend our school. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:57 | |
-Some, like me, come from -Welsh speaking families... | 0:02:57 | 0:03:00 | |
-..but many have non-Welsh -backgrounds. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:03 | |
-They have learned Welsh in primary -school and speak it well now. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:08 | |
-Only a small number -of Welsh families... | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
-..come from Cardiff originally. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:14 | |
-Cardiff is an anglicised city... | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
-..and many people -can't speak Welsh. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:20 | |
-Welsh families have come here to -live from other parts of Wales. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:26 | |
-Usually, it's the parents' jobs -that have brought them here. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:30 | |
-Many of my friends' parents -work in the city centre. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:35 | |
-Cardiff, just like any other city, -is busy and noisy. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:17 | |
-There are tall buildings -everywhere. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:20 | |
-The offices of important businesses -are located here... | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
-..in the city centre -so people can visit them easily. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:30 | |
-There are many cars on the roads -especially in the morning... | 0:04:38 | 0:04:42 | |
-..and in the evening when people -are going to or leaving work. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:47 | |
-The majority of people live on -the city outskirts, like us. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:53 | |
-They have to travel into town -every day. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:56 | |
-People prefer to live away from -the city centre as it's quieter. | 0:04:57 | 0:05:01 | |
-What do you want to do -this afternoon? | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
-Luned, do you want to go swimming -this afternoon? | 0:05:13 | 0:05:16 | |
-Yeah. Llanishen. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:17 | |
-Yeah. Llanishen. - -How about you, Bethan? | 0:05:17 | 0:05:19 | |
-'There isn't much peace to be had -in the city but I like living here. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:24 | |
-'There's plenty to see and do... | 0:05:24 | 0:05:26 | |
-'..and I love coming to the shops -on Saturday.' | 0:05:26 | 0:05:30 | |
-I never tire of the shops... | 0:05:32 | 0:05:34 | |
-..and I walk around them even -if I don't need anything. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:39 | |
-It's nice to be among so many -people and seeing so much. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:42 | |
-I could spend hours every Saturday -looking at the latest fashions... | 0:05:51 | 0:05:56 | |
-..and trying some on too. | 0:05:56 | 0:05:58 | |
-Even though Cardiff -is a modern city... | 0:06:35 | 0:06:37 | |
-..its history stretches back -centuries. | 0:06:37 | 0:06:40 | |
-Cardiff Castle was built -by the Normans... | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
-..in 1086. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:51 | |
-The castle is one of the -city's main attractions... | 0:06:52 | 0:06:55 | |
-..and is very popular -with tourists. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:58 | |
-A small town grew around -the castle... | 0:07:01 | 0:07:04 | |
-..and that's how Cardiff was -for centuries. | 0:07:04 | 0:07:07 | |
-A small market town -where people sold their produce. | 0:07:07 | 0:07:11 | |
-But that changed suddenly... | 0:07:12 | 0:07:15 | |
-..and the small town became -a large busy city. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:18 | |
-What was that reason? | 0:07:18 | 0:07:20 | |
-Simply, it was coal... | 0:07:21 | 0:07:22 | |
-..and the fact Cardiff -lay by the sea. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:25 | |
-In the 19th century, -South Wales produced more coal... | 0:07:29 | 0:07:33 | |
-..than anywhere else in the world. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:35 | |
-Most of the coal was transported -to Cardiff for export. | 0:07:36 | 0:07:40 | |
-Huge docks were built here -in 1839. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:48 | |
-Ships carried coal to the four -corners of the world every day. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:53 | |
-Before long, Cardiff became -the world's largest coal port. | 0:07:56 | 0:08:00 | |
-The success of the docks turned -Cardiff into an important town. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:19 | |
-Large buildings were constructed -and industries came here... | 0:08:19 | 0:08:23 | |
-..that offered mass employment. | 0:08:23 | 0:08:26 | |
-It became an important centre -for banks. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:30 | |
-Before long, it became obvious -that nearly everything... | 0:08:32 | 0:08:35 | |
-..that was important in Wales -was controlled from Cardiff. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:39 | |
-Then the town -was even more important... | 0:08:40 | 0:08:42 | |
-..when it became the capital. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:44 | |
-The village where my parents -come from... | 0:08:58 | 0:09:01 | |
-..seems a million miles away -from the busy city... | 0:09:02 | 0:09:05 | |
-..even though it's only 40 miles -really. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:09 | |
-My mother and father were born -in Ystradgynlais... | 0:09:09 | 0:09:12 | |
-..and that's -where they were raised. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:15 | |
-They moved to Cardiff -when they were young... | 0:09:15 | 0:09:18 | |
-..but Mam-gu still lives there -and I visit her quite often. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:23 | |
-You weren't long. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:26 | |
-I come and stay with Mam-gu -during the holidays too. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:29 | |
-I enjoy myself in the village... | 0:09:32 | 0:09:35 | |
-..but I wouldn't want to live here -all the time. | 0:09:35 | 0:09:38 | |
-But Dad loves it here. | 0:09:43 | 0:09:45 | |
-I think he'd prefer to live here -than in Cardiff. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:49 | |
-I left Ystradgynlais because my job -was in Cardiff. | 0:09:54 | 0:09:59 | |
-Also, since the children -were born... | 0:10:00 | 0:10:04 | |
-..I think there are more facilities -available in Cardiff. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:07 | |
-They see Cardiff as their home... | 0:10:09 | 0:10:12 | |
-..and so that's why we've stayed -in Cardiff. | 0:10:12 | 0:10:17 | |
-By living in Cardiff, I think the -children have missed out on... | 0:10:19 | 0:10:24 | |
-..living in a village environment, -like Ystradgynlais. | 0:10:24 | 0:10:28 | |
-It's a close knit community, -everyone knows each other... | 0:10:28 | 0:10:32 | |
-..and you can't find that -on any scale in Cardiff. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:36 | |
-On the one hand, -I'm sorry about that... | 0:10:38 | 0:10:40 | |
-..but on the other, -we're glad we live in Cardiff. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:45 | |
-My mother lives with us -most of the time... | 0:11:02 | 0:11:05 | |
-..so I don't have to worry about -the children. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:09 | |
-We can come and go, -to a great extent... | 0:11:09 | 0:11:12 | |
-..quite independently -without worrying too much... | 0:11:12 | 0:11:16 | |
-..about the children coming back. | 0:11:17 | 0:11:20 | |
-There are plenty of advantages -in living in the city... | 0:11:22 | 0:11:25 | |
-..especially with three daughters. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:27 | |
-They enjoy the shops -and the fashions... . | 0:11:27 | 0:11:30 | |
-.that are to be had in the city. | 0:11:30 | 0:11:31 | |
-But we also recognize -there are disadvantages... | 0:11:32 | 0:11:36 | |
-..to city life. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:38 | |
-Dangerous things can happen... | 0:11:38 | 0:11:42 | |
-..which doesn't happen in a close -community like Ystradgynlais. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:47 | |
-We don't have any problems in being -a Welsh family... | 0:11:51 | 0:11:55 | |
-..in an Anglicised city. | 0:11:56 | 0:11:58 | |
-We make the effort to move out -of the Welsh circle... | 0:11:58 | 0:12:02 | |
-..every now and then. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:04 | |
-We've joined the tennis club... | 0:12:04 | 0:12:07 | |
-..the children have joined Brownies -and Guides... | 0:12:07 | 0:12:11 | |
-..where they mix with -English-speaking children. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:15 | |
-I find they have plenty of friends -from both communities. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:20 | |
-Hi, Sara, it's Luned. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:26 | |
-Do you want to come -over this afternoon? | 0:12:27 | 0:12:29 | |
-'Believe it or not but living -in a city can be very lonely. | 0:12:29 | 0:12:34 | |
-'I know some of the children -who live nearby... | 0:12:34 | 0:12:37 | |
-'..but most of my school friends... | 0:12:38 | 0:12:41 | |
-'..live in other parts of Cardiff. | 0:12:41 | 0:12:43 | |
-'So spending an afternoon with my -friends takes a lot of arranging. | 0:12:44 | 0:12:48 | |
-'I have to ask Mam or Dad -to drive us.' | 0:12:48 | 0:12:51 | |
-OK. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:52 | |
-See you later. Ta-ra. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:54 | |
-But living in the city more than -makes up for the problems. | 0:13:04 | 0:13:09 | |
-More than 250,000 people -live in Cardiff. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:12 | |
-With such a large city, -there's plenty of things to do. | 0:13:12 | 0:13:17 | |
-There are leisure centres, -clubs and lessons... | 0:13:27 | 0:13:31 | |
-..where you can enjoy yourselves -or learn anything new. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:36 | |
-One of my favourites is the centre -where you can to learn to ski. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:47 | |
-I've only started to learn -and it's quite easy. | 0:13:48 | 0:13:51 | |
-But I did fall a lot at the start. | 0:13:51 | 0:13:54 | |
-Skiing isn't the only unusual thing -to do in Cardiff. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:33 | |
-I can also go ice skating -on the weekends with my friends. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:39 | |
-We all go as a family -to the leisure centre. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:05 | |
-Swimming is my favourite -but you can take part... | 0:15:06 | 0:15:10 | |
-..in any kind of sport in Cardiff. | 0:15:10 | 0:15:12 | |
-Like most of my friends, -I have music lessons. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:44 | |
-I'm learning to play the violin -as well as the piano and harp. | 0:15:44 | 0:15:48 | |
-Stop there because you're not -keeping the tempo going... | 0:15:52 | 0:15:55 | |
-..completely steady. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
-It's much better than it was but -can we go from the top again... | 0:15:57 | 0:16:01 | |
-..with you counting. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:02 | |
-Keep that right elbow up -because it's a bit messy. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:06 | |
-Tickets for Clement, please. | 0:16:15 | 0:16:17 | |
-Thank you very much. | 0:16:20 | 0:16:22 | |
-One big advantage of living -in a city is... | 0:16:31 | 0:16:34 | |
-..you can enjoy -a lot of entertainment. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:38 | |
-Every now and then we go to -the theatre or to a concert. | 0:16:38 | 0:16:43 | |
-Going to watch a concert -in St David's Hall... | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
-..is always a special occasion. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:48 | |
-I like dressing up -and preparing to go... | 0:16:48 | 0:16:52 | |
-..buying the tickets -and the programme... | 0:16:52 | 0:16:55 | |
-..and the atmosphere -as the audience waits... | 0:16:55 | 0:16:58 | |
-..for the concert to start. | 0:16:58 | 0:17:00 | |
-Because Cardiff -is a capital city... | 0:17:09 | 0:17:13 | |
