Airport and local school speaking the same language....
Cardiff Airport welcomed 16 pupils from Bryn Hafren Comprehensive School to the terminal during the last week of term to give an insight into the benefits of speaking foreign languages when working at an airport.
Bryn Hafren School is committed to providing equality of opportunity for all pupils regardless of gender, ability or race.
The scheme targets pupils in year 9 before they choose which subjects to follow for their GCSEs, to give them a taste of how speaking a foreign language could benefit them in business later in life
Mr P Whitcombe
Headteacher
Kelly Black, a modern foreign languages teacher at Bryn Hafren School added: "The pupils thoroughly enjoyed being part of this project and have learnt so much. The majority of the pupils who took part have now gone on to study a foreign language at GCSE which is excellent news. I think having a partnership with an airport that is on their doorstep is so important in bringing the message home."

Physical Education adventure trip to Austria 2009
23 pupils and 2 staff travelled to Wagrin in Austria for 5 days of adventure. Having packed according to the travel advice (warm and sunny!) with vast quantities of sun cream, and multiple pairs of shorts and t-shirts, we set off. However, when we left the aeroplane we were met with torrential ran, which stayed for 4 days!
The pupils were fantastic and did not moan about the weather once!
Everyone enjoyed the windsurfing, cable car ride and down hill mountain biking, along with an assault course which was 2000ft up a mountain!
Miss Williams and Mrs Farbrace would like to thank the pupils for professional way they conducted themselves.
