Our Young Carers at Georgetown Primary School did a terrific job of sharing important information about being a Young Carer In assembly today. They shared What they need to do if they think they are a young carer. Standing up in front of hundreds of children - fantastic 👏

We had a very creative session with water colours with our Young Carers Group today. A very relaxed session. @YoungCarersCol1

Our Young Carers Group at Georgetown are planning a whole school assembly to raise awareness for what they do. They are very keen to identify and support any other young carers in the school. if you think that your child may be a young carer then please get in touch.

@StJoseRC1 @EAS_Equity @EAS_EarlyYears @YoungMindsUK @BlaenauGwentCBC @BishopHedleyRC What a lovely idea 😋

Wow! Our Wellbeing Waffle Bar was busy this morning - children from all our classes enjoyed a well deserved treat 😋 Kindness & Wellbeing always at the heart of our school ❤ @EAS_Equity @EAS_EarlyYears @YoungMindsUK @BlaenauGwentCBC @BishopHedleyRC

We had woodwork training today with @PeteMoorhouseEY. We can’t wait to introduce this to our learners. What an amazing way to develop practical and critical thinking skills.

An informative and fun Super Seed Workshop from Becky Ward who is the Biodiversity Officer for Blaenau Gwent. Thank you, we all learned so much. @BeckyEco_Ed

@GarethKCoombes Podcast not blog 🙄

@GarethKCoombes I just listened to 'Emma and Tom talk Teaching' blog with Lucy Crehan where she explains the work she has carried out with EAS and CSC. A very interesting listen. I'll try and post the link.

I have heard that WG may be creating skills/knowledge ladder type resources to support the bridge between Descriptions of learning and Progression steps. Can anyone shed further light on this? Thanks.

@lucy_crehan @TalkTeachingPod We just had Estyn too so I think we were lucky to be inspected when still in this early stage of curriculum design and implementation.

@lucy_crehan @TalkTeachingPod I just listened and found it fasinating. I'm in EAS so looking forward to seeing this work they have completed with you. I love the freedom of C4W but I feel a bit overwhelmed with designing a curriculum and thinking about progression and what skills to cover. Thank you.

Link here for my podcast with Emma and Tom of @TalkTeachingPod all about Curriculum for Wales! Opportunities, risks, and a suggestion for how schools can mitigate the latter whilst making the most of the former… blubrry.com/pgcepodcast/83… #CfW

@Sheep009Terry @georgeprimary @tredegarcc Thank you, the children really enjoyed it in Year 1 and 2. 🏏

An active and enjoyable morning @georgeprimary working with year one and two followed by year three and four after lunch. Approximately 240 children being introduced to cricket and hoping many will join @tredegarcc allstars and dynamos at the REC on Friday nights

@GpsMorgans @georgeprimary @EAS_Equity @MEvs74 @TredegarCouncil @GrantScape1 What an incredible transformation 😍

How it started v how it’s going… Our new Well being and reflection garden is nearing completion! @georgeprimary @EAS_Equity @GPSLRees @MEvs74 @TredegarCouncil @GrantScape1

Pupils @georgeprimary are able to Blog their writing about their ‘Island’ project into the GeorgeCast app. This gives the pupils a purposeful writing opportunity #valueadded

Excited to be starting Minecraft Education Edition tonight with Dean Garza. @playcraftlearn @aspire2B @ @dogtx @A2BMinecraft @MinecraftEdu

We were explorers on the beach today. We all earned our 'Rock Pool Guardian' badges for our training in handling the wildlife.

After much deliberation this morning, these could only have been made by the Easter Bunny. 🐰
