Rioco has launched a brand new mission for this half term Ambitions for Wales. She hopes to have every child in Wales complete the survey to understand their views and needs. 

Below you’ll find links to surveys for different groups of people.

All of our surveys will close on 5 November.

Rioco wants to hear your ambitions for Wales – the things you want to change to make Wales a better place for children to grow up.

Your views and experiences will shape our work over the next three years.

Today Bonnie and Zac launched the super ambassadors mission for the school. We will make sure Blaenymaes children will have their voice heard!

Today we visited Botanical Gardens on a Super Ambassadors day! We did lots of fun things and learnt all about our rights. We got to spoke with other Super Ambassadors and shared our good practice. 

We had lots of fun in the sessions and can't wait to take classes over the next few weeks and implement the rights.

Universal Children's Day

We collaborated with these schools for Universal Children’s Day and enjoyed many workshops based on the rights of the child. We had lots of fun and can't wait to organise our next event.

We have some very exciting news, Rhodri is going to Africa. A few weeks ago, we spoke in assembly about a special charity ' Mellon Educate' who are based in Africa and build schools in Africa. Sarah Hooke, Unicef Ambassador, asked us if Rhodri would like to join her and climb Table Mountain in Cape Town to raise money for Mellon Educate. We spoke to Rhodri and he can't wait!!! 

On Friday 25th October, we will be fundraising to send Rhodri on his adventure by taking part in a sponsored bounce. Pupils will need to donate £1 to have a turn on the bouncy castle.  

Next week, we will be taking Rhodri to Hafod Primary to send him on his travels.

Thank you for helping us support this important charity!

Super Ambassador Event

Tuesday 9th October 2018

On Tuesday the 9th October we went to Cardiff with Mrs Smith and Miss Bacon for a Super Ambassador event. We met Sally Holland, the Children's Commissioner of Wales, her job is to make sure that every child in Wales has there rights.

The day started by the children and teachers being separated.  They had organised a teacher workshop and a children's workshop. The teachers did a drama and acting workshop, Mrs Smith and Mrs Bacon were very competitive and got all the rights questions correct! The children did workshops about the rights of the child. The first workshop was about this terms special mission and we were writing on sticky notes to give some ideas. We will be announcing the special mission next week and will need your help! The second workshop was choosing your favourite article and colouring it in. We chose article 31, you have the right to rest and play. The third and final workshop was making a rap and a poem about rights with a professional rapper. We had lots of fun and can't wait to lead rights throughout the school.
