Got 2mins to help out a year 5 class?

We're lucky to be working with Cantref Primary again.

Can you spare 2 minutes to help a year 5 class?

They wanna know YOUR thoughts on Abergavenny!

Nail on head here.

American "culture" has destroyed British culture to the point you could get one thousand 18- 40 year old Britons together who couldn't name 10 British traditions or cultural norms but could parrot any number of American words, pop culture and habits.

That's who destroyed British culture.

If you don't believe it, go anywhere in Europe today and see what local cultural events, unique to that culture are taking place through summer.

Democracy: relies on the active participation of informed citizens who understand their role in shaping the government's actions and policies.

Amazing school, class and teacher!
Using Hip-Hop as the vehicle, we discovered what a huge impact we each can have on the world if we learn how to find ourselves, know ourselves and be ourselves

I’m pretty low maintenance. I just need some coffee and 6 or 7 hours of solitude in the morning, and I’m good.
