Some of the base pupils had a great time on this week's trip to Penarth cliff tops - they enjoyed a play in the park, some snacks in the cafe, and finally a brisk walk to finish! 😄🛝 @WhitmoreBase

Pupils from the Resource Base were lucky enough to have a visit from South Wales Police Drones Unit this afternoon. They particularly enjoyed learning all about the drones' heat seeking and zoom capabilities. Fun and informative - thank you, @swpolice

We had a lovely trip to Porthkerry Park today. We attended the cafe, played in the park, and went to the pebble beach. This was the perfect place for our budding photographers to test their skills.
