BAG PACK FOR BBC CHILDREN IN NEED

As part of fundraising for BBC Children In Need, South Wales students, their parents, teachers and numerous friends and family, spent most of their Sunday packing bags in ASDA and collecting funds for BBC Children In Need to add to the sponsorship raised through NATIONAL TALKING DAY! and various other activities.

Principal, Becky Goodfield, said she was very proud of her students: "42 young people came from lots of different classes, in different areas of South Wales. At the start of the day they barely knew any other students but by the end they had all made lots of new friends. They develop excellent communication skills in class and they certainly put them to good use on Sunday."

Deputy Principal, Helen Ward, who is on maternity leave right now, brought new baby Liam along to help. Unfortunately
the Academy didn't have t-shirts in his size!

Fundraising continues throughout this week and we thank everyone for their amazing efforts!
