What a busy fortnight it has been in school with our extended 'Healthy Week'. Last week, children from all classes spent their afternoon sessions looking at all things healthy - from healthy diets to exercise; keeping safe in the sun to E-safety as well as building safe relationships and keeping our minds healthy and active.
The week culminated in our sponsored challenges, each of which was designed to show that exercise could be fun. Dosbarth Teigr and Dosbarth Eliffant took to a bouncy castle in their sponsored bounce! Meanwhile Dosbarth Coala and Dosbarth Cangarw designed a special route around the school and took to their bikes/scooters to complete laps for their sponsored Wheel-a-thon. The children (not to mention the staff!) had a great time, developed their physical skills and raised a great deal of money in the process.
Unfortunately, the weather last week was just too wet to complete the sponsored Taff Trail Hike (The 2 Castle challenge - Castell Coch to Cardiff Castle on foot!) However, this Friday the weather was on side and all children and staff from Dosbarth Twcan, Rhino Gwyn and Llew completed the difficult challenge. The group set off from Tongwynlais at 9.30am and arrived at Cardiff Castle at 1.30pm just in time for lunch. Everyone involved enjoyed the day and children, staff and our parent volunteers arrived back at school weary but with big smiles on their faces! Da Iawn to all involved in all this year's sponsored challenges - sponsorship money to be in by Friday 28th June.
During all this health related activity we also were assessed for Phase 3 of the 'Healthy Schools' award and passed with flying colours! A great achievement and well done once again to all involved!
