Geography Department Fieldwork
|
|
In December the Geography department took 108 Year 11 GCSE Geography pupils on a one day field visit to complete a Fieldwork investigation into rural change in Cowbridge. The aim of the day was to collect primary (first hand) data relating to a commuter settlement and retail patterns in the market town. It was a cold wintry day but they braved the elements to collect up to date and relevant information, which can now be used in the Field work write ups- 10% of the final GCSE grade. |
Bowling Trips
|
|
Pupils from Years 7, 8, 9 and 10 were rewarded for their excellent effort over the course of the Autumn term with trips to the Hollywood Bowl in Cardiff Bay. Accompanied enthusiastically by the teachers, pupils had the afternoon in teams playing closely-fought games of bowling and visiting the facility’s cafe and snack bar. It was a great end to a highly successful term for the pupils and we are sure they will continue to work hard to achieve their potential this term. |

We are proud to report on the success of Year 11 Stanwell pupil Sam Jones, a promising young footballer who has already been selected for the Welsh Squad. Sam is in an exciting bidding war which involves professional clubs vying for his services. A challenging time lies ahead for Sam as he attempts to combine studying for his GCSEs with the intensive training and match regime that is required but we are confident that he will succeed in all that he undertakes. Congratulations again on this exciting career development opportunity. |
