Today four of our Year 5 pupils took part in a table tennis competition based at the Cardiff Table Tennis Club. There were round-robin games throughout the day and the lads did really well coming in the top half of the table with over 30 pupils involved. Some silky skills (including spin!) were very evident - da iawn lads!
What a fantastic three days our Year 5 pupils experienced at the Storey Arms Outdoor Education Centre! The weather was dry but incredibly cold yet this did not deter our determined pupils who learnt so much through every experience...hill-walking, gorge-exploring, tunnel discovering, canoeing, dorm tidying, meal serving and team-building! Thanks to the fabulous instructors who guided, helped and cared for us all. We had an unforgettable time!
The first orders have been put in for delicious fruit & veg for our pupils, parents (and staff!). Thanks to Mrs Fry for co-ordinating and this will be a regular plan for Fridays at the school in time for the weekend. Please pop into the school if you are interested in putting in a fruit and/or veg order!
We were delighted to welcome Jordan Howe, Paralympian sprinter, to Willowbrook today. He took part in both the 2012 and 2016 Paralympics in London & Rio respectively. He shared with the pupils his career journey so far (he is from St. Mellons originally!) and encouraged them not to give up when faced with challenges in life. It was an inspirational visit and we look forward to following the course of his future career with great interest.
It was lovely to welcome Griff Rowlands to speak to our Year 6 pupils about his latest book. He also shared how he became an author and inspired our pupils to love reading and writing - maybe we will discover a budding author in the school in the years to come!
