Water week success at Bro Gwaun

1000 length challenge: The group that completed the challenge
THROUGHOUT the last week of January Ysgol Bro Gwaun took part in a ‘Water Week’ aimed at promoting healthy living, physical activity and raising money for charity. The week started off with a non-school uniform day, which each pupil received a bottle of water with the proceeds going to the Princes Gate Trust, a local charity which is supported by former Wales rugby captain Ryan Jones and aims to support young people through sport and other opportunities.
The day was a great success and was supported by staff and pupils, with a notably more positive feeling around the school.
The theme of water continued to the Tuesday where pupils took part in a sponsored swimming gala to try and swim 1000 lengths combined of the local leisure centre pool. The event was a massive success with over 40 children taking part, swimming a total of 1760 lengths in 1 hour 20 minutes.
Princes Gate Trust representative Juliana Morgan who came down to distribute water and juice to the enthusiastic swimmers supported the gala. In total the gala raised £300 pound towards the Princes Gate Trust.
‘The energy and atmosphere was fantastic, and it epitomised the community sprit we want to build both on and off the field within the school” commented Rugby Hub Officer Chris Shousha who co-ordinated the week.
Totals from the week are still to be counted but it is estimated around £700 has been raised towards the Princes Gate Trust. The school would like to thank the great support from pupils, parents and all those that came together to make the week such a success.
Ysgol Bro Gwaun’s in Water Week continued on the Wednesday with GCSE PE pupils supporting Pembrokeshire disability swimming gala. Pupils were in charge of organising swimming lanes and time keeping duties, which was pivotal in the event running smoothly. The day was another great success with Pupils supporting over 60 young athletes competing in the Gala. Credit to Sports Pembrokeshire for running such an inclusive and well organised event that was enjoyed by all who attended.

MORE than 50 young people took part in a multi-sport taster event designed to encourage girls to get involved in new activities.
The Sport Pembrokeshire Community Clubs event was held at Fishguard Leisure Centre on Sunday (Dec 1) for pupils from Ysgol Bro Gwaun and its feeder schools, with sponsorship from Valero.
Local sports clubs and activity providers offered a wide range of sessions, including cricket, self-defence, rowing, dance, hockey, tennis, table tennis, rugby and basketball. Water for participants was kindly provided by Princes Gate.
Young Ambassadors from Ysgol Bro Gwaun also played a key role in helping the event run smoothly.
Dan Bellis, of Sport Pembrokeshire, said: “It was a fantastic evening and it was brilliant to see so many young people and coaches in attendance.
“There was a wide range of activities on offer and everyone clearly enjoyed themselves.
“We hope the girls who took part have discovered a new sport or activity and will continue their involvement with the local clubs and providers who supported the event.”

Keeper scores 121st-minute wonder goal before saving two penalties
Cwmamman United stun Tenby AFC in an unforgettable 3-3 thriller to reach the last sixteen of the West Wales Intermediate Cup
Cwmamman Utd 3 Tenby AFC 3 (Cwm win 3–2 on pens)
AN EXTRAORDINARY cup tie unfolded at Grenig Park as Cwmamman United and Tenby AFC shared a breathless 3-3 draw, before the hosts edged through 3–2 on penalties.
Tenby struck almost instantly, with Lloyd Hughes finding the net inside the opening minute. Cwm hit back on 14 minutes when Cam Isaac produced a superb finish to level the tie, but Joe Leahy restored Tenby’s lead before the break – a goal that for long spells looked like it might settle the contest.
Deep into stoppage time, however, Cwmamman refused to accept defeat. In the 100th minute, Jackson Brereton pounced to smash home an equaliser and force extra time.
The drama only intensified. Tenby were awarded a hotly disputed penalty in the 114th minute, converted confidently by Hughes. The spot-kick also saw Cwm’s Kieran Rees – who had been excellent alongside Kai O’Donnell at the heart of the defence – shown a red card.
But with virtually the last kick of the game, Cwm’s goalkeeper Kai Rees strode forward for a final desperate attack and unleashed a stunning 25-yard volley to make it 3-3, sparking wild celebrations around the ground.
Rees was far from finished. In the decisive shootout, he produced two superb saves to secure a 3–2 penalty win and send Cwmamman United into the last sixteen of the West Wales Intermediate Cup.
