Beach Clean at Porthcawl

Life in Westwood is cool!

Captain of Boarding, Ryan, writes:
Saturday meant revision for Year 7 before going to town. Some of the boys were in cricket teams. The film, Aquaman, was really enjoyable. We headed on Sunday to Porthcawl in Wales to help clean up the beach with Mr Musgrove, Mr Brown (Art), his son, Mrs Patterson and Mr Amner. We are so delighted we can help save the planet as we know how much rubbish humans create each day.

The trip is linked to sustainable development and Eco-school campaigns to support environmental protection. We know sbout the importance of being active and we all used a lot of energy today in our efforts to make the beach safer and cleaner!

Ryan continues his report: We had delicious fish and chips for lunch before playing some rounders, football and touch rugby.

Upside down lunch!

Very competitive game of football.

Even time for  a cheeky staff selfie!

What a stunning place!

Great offload!
