Lots of awards were made this term for attendance.  Medals were given to pupils with 100% attendance in the Summer term.  Prize winners were drawn from names of pupils who had full weeks attendance this term.  Their name goes in to the pot each time they complete a full week.  We also had four pupils with 100% attendance for the whole academic year.  They were rewarded with a special certificate and a monetary prize.

Kilgetty in Bloom

Another opportunity for designing posters came in the form of the Kilgetty in Bloom competition.

Each year there is also and environmental award presented to a group or individual from the school to recognise their efforts in the field of outdoor education and caring for the enviroment. This year the Gary Waters memorial cup was presented to Dosbarth Draenog for their Forest School work.

‘Pawsome’ Readers

Dosbarth Mochyn Daear have been participating in Burns By your Side reading to dogs scheme this year.  Michelle brings in her dog, the very popular Frankie, each Monday and the pupils get the chance to read to him.  The scheme boosts the confidence of reluctant readers as the dog provides relaxation and a non judgemental audience.
