Glyn-Gaer Primary School in Hengoed will receive visits from a team of veterans over the coming months, who will deliver inspiring and fun sessions based around health, wellbeing and building resilience to improve the children’s confidence.

Headteacher Beverly Pearce said: “What a wonderful experience for the children

“A fun-filled afternoon which had the children working collaboratively, solving problems whilst developing their physical fitness. Sean’s approach brought smiles and laughter, even to those who can be difficult to engage with. The children are already looking forward to the next session.”

The challenges contain elements of fitness, mental and teambuilding challenges which promote communication skills and learning to work together to overcome problems. To Read the full article in the South Wales Argus and for more details please click HERE!
