Listen up folks ‘cos we need to talk about Priti Patel’s ‘ugly’ Rwanda plan and what this means.🧵

Our #schoolsavingscheme is a great success with at least 80 regular savers each week. Well worth a look ⬇️

Here's a reminder of why we love what we do. @CredUnionsWales @HuwJDavidCC @tremainsprimary @ArchbishopHigh @OldcastleSchool @stmarysbridgend @OgmoreP @pencoedprimary @NantymoelPS @Cornelips001 @ysgolyfos @strobertsrc @penybontprimary @PenyfaiPrimary

On Thursday we saw more savers @Cornelips001 than we've seen there since Nov 2020! Thank you to all the staff, children and families for their support!! Here's a reminder of just some of the things they have saved for.. @CredUnionsWales @HuwJDavidCC

Very busy morning in our Savings Club today. Lovely to see how enthusiastic the children are saving their pennies. Very proud of all our ‘super savers’. @BridgendCU @CSCJES @HuwJDavidCC @WG_Education

It was great to launch our latest @bridgendcu school savings @ArchbishopHigh. We're particularly excited as it's our 1st time working in a secondary school. Can't wait to meet new savers and those that joined us @stmarysbridgend @ajlprimary @strobertsrc. @cuwales @WG_Communities

Congratulations to budding artist Sophie for winning our School Saver Christmas Card Design Competition! Sophie is a pupil at @strobertsrc who run a school saving scheme with @BridgendCU. Her design was made into a card and she received a trophy. #schoolsaver #christmascard

Busy morning @PenyfaiPrimary. We haven't seen as many weekly savers at the @BridgendCU Penyfai Savings Club for nearly a year! Looking forward to seeing it grow further..

Our @BridgendCU School Savings Clubs are well and truly back in full flow. Last week we had 305 savers paying money into their savings accounts. Fantastic effort from all of our schools! @CredUnionsWales

What an incredible start to our @BridgendCU school savings club @tremainsprimary. It's only our first week but 67 children have already joined with 34 of them saving their pennies and pounds. Looking forward to seeing it grow and grow! @CredUnionsWales @WG_Communities

@pencoedprimary School pupils and staff are celebrating their success after being highly commended in the Credit Unions of Wales Awards 2021. They were nominated by @BridgendCU Lifesavers Credit Union to recognise the success of their School Savings Club.

Getting ready for the launch of our latest school savings club @tremainsprimary tomorrow! Very excited to meet our newest savers in the morning! @BridgendCU @CredUnionsWales

As always, it's lovely to be back in school after the summer holidays. Seren was saving some of her birthday money @OldcastleSchool. Penblwydd Hapus, Seren! Seren was one of 60 children saving their pennies and pounds. Not bad for our 1st week back! @BridgendCU @CredUnionsWales

So lovely to start our @SaversSchool club back again this year. Really good to see 60 savers this morning! #inspire #motivate #educate

It was lovely to be back in @strobertsrc for the 1st time in 18 months. Plans made for return of the @BridgendCU savings club. In just 2 wks, we'll have all 12 savings clubs up & running, inc. @tremainsprimary, our latest school! @CredUnionsWales @WG_Communities @HuwJDavidCC

As we enter the final week of the school year, I wanted to thank all our schools for the efforts they've made to keep the savings clubs running during such difficult times. Big shout out to all the staff, children and families involved - we couldn't do it without you!

We had some brilliant entries for our poster competition @ysgolyfos. Our top 3 have all won vouchers to spend over the summer holidays. It was very tough choosing 1st, 2nd and 3rd but well done to all the children who entered. Diolch a da iawn!

Really looking forward to launching our 12th @BridgendCU school savings club in @penybontprimary tomorrow morning. Our money pigs are looking forward to finding a new home.. @CredUnionsWales @JaneHutt

Lovely to visit @penybontprimary as prepare to launch our 12th @BridgendCU school savings club. So excited to start working with the school after half term & for many more years. Can't wait to meet all the new savers! @CredUnionsWales @JaneHutt @wgmin_education @sarah4bridgend
