The Year 11 WorkSkills class celebrated<br />
their success on a windswept Barry Island<br />
in May undertaking some voluntary<br />
work with the Visible Services department<br />
at the Vale <strong>of</strong> Glamorgan Council. Well<br />
done and keep up the volunteering work everyone!<br />
I am sure that the students will look back<br />
and have good memories <strong>of</strong> their volunteering<br />
work at Porthkerry Park, Barry Island and<br />
Penarth.<br />
