As this year comes to an end, we would like to show an appreciation to those who have gone above and beyond in Health & Wellbeing.
These pupils have shown exceptional dedication and pride in their work, along with being incredible role models to all 3-16 pupils.
Da iawn all👏🏻
A huge well done to our Yr 9 pupils who became this year’s Sports Leaders, trained by @ALSportDev to support 3-16 events!
They helped deliver multiple lower school sporting festivals, including netball, cricket & athletics to Yrs 3-6.
Da iawn all, incredible role models👏🏻
What an amazing few weeks it’s been for our girls in the Wales performance pathway!
At the weekend learners competed in the U15s Regional Academy and the U17s Regional Academy tournaments.
All fantastic netballer's who have consistently worked hard to get here. Da iawn girls!
Learners from Year 7, 8 and 9 were selected to attend a trip to London to see the National Windrush Monument following a Windrush project in their Humanities lessons. Learners were joined on the day by three Windrush Elders, Hadassah Radway, Muriel Wharton and Linette Haines MBE.
Year 9 took part in the Medical Mavericks session, learning how to take bloods, take temperature, check reflex, take blood pressure, listen to heart beat, use ECG equipment and keyhole surgery simulation.
Smiles all round at the KS3 Wellbeing Festival and the sun was on our side. Learners took part in an egg & spoon race, bean bag race & running track events.
Plenty of healthy confident individuals and lots of ambitious, capable learners. @ALC_HWB_Dept
Our annual sports day has come & gone, this time for Yrs 7 & 8. It was great to see so many pupils participating, with many doing multiple events.
