Our Week at Tir Morfa
So proud of the Pioneering pupils who won the first ever NBA junior basketball tournament for ALN learners. Wales are the first in the world to host this and so YTM will go down in history as the first ever winners! One of wonderful team also got person of the match. Thanks also to all the staff who went all the way down to Aberystwyth with the team.
Dosbarth Alwen had a fun, messy time this week making starfish with different mark making techniques. They used hands, feet and brushes.
Famau had an amazing experience at the Social Enterprise competition where they won the most sustainable Social Enterprise. They had worked very hard and really developed their team skills during that time-well done Famau!
Dosbarth Enfys enjoyed their annual Pop and Play session. We had great fun exploring the weather themed stations and a music session with Rosie.
Dosbarth Brenig took part in the "Dragon's den" this week. With "Social Enterprise schools" They won the " Most Creative Pitch with their Honey’s Fruit & Veg shop and trolley. The pupils offered a fruit and veg pick n' mix, yoghurt with honey, conserve or granola and smoothies. The learners sold their food to all the staff around school, their parents and some pupils from another school. The Dragons' Feedback included that the group had a "Really creative pitch", "they loved the variety of the products available for the pick & mix", they "Loved the variety of the products available for the pick & mix" "Everyone engaged with the dragons really well" and that "overall" [it was ] a lovely pitch from a very enthusiastic and committed group!" Da iawn Dosbarth Brenig!
We had so much fun in our pop and play event this week in Dosbarth Haul, we enjoyed the sunny weather, playing in the outdoor areas and exploring all the fun activities.
It’s been a busy week in Dosbarth Aled this week, they have been busy with jobs around school, been out in the community and had a great time in music playing instruments and practicing loud and quiet….they were VERY loud!!!
Exploring all weathers in our outdoor learning!
