MARY’S SCHOOL AND ST. JOHN LLOYD SCHOOL. Our Year Six pupils who have become Bronze Sports Ambassadors visited Parc y Scarlets this week for a training day. The day equipped them with lots of ideas and activities to help them fulfil their role which is to: increase participation and healthy lifestyles in schools, be a role model and advocate for sporting activity, promote the Olympic and Paralympic values and to be the young peoples' voice on PE and school sport in their schools and communities. Well done to all concerned. Our Autumn 'Dress Up' disco was held this week and as always was very well attended and proved to be an evening of music, dancing and fun. A big thank you to the PTA for organising the event and to our parents and staff for supporting it. This week six year 10 pupils entered the final preparations of the Young Business Dragons Enterprise competition. They have put together an impressive product and detailed business plan and we wish them well for the coming week. Members of the school's Student Council have also been making their voices heard by attending the iNet conference, improving not only their communication skills but also influencing the future direction of education. Pupils from all year groups have been involved in matches in football and netball against several local schools, with many talents on show hopefully they will go from strength to strength.
