What's the difference between canoeing and kayaking?

Apparently it is all to do with the paddle! If you use a single bladed paddle you are canoeing and if you use a double bladed paddle you are kayaking.

What an experience we had at the Cardiff Primary Schools Canoeing Competition on Monday morning. We were told no previous canoeing experience was necessary, we just needed to be confident in deep water. Twelve very excited pupils from years 5 & 6, set off to Cardiff International White Water Rafting Centre.

After a brief introduction to the different boats, the children were able to experience single and double canoes and kayaks before they had a race against other schools.

The children learnt quickly and from not being able to control the boats, they managed to steer their way down the race course and across the finishing line. We even won some medals!! 

From nervous niggles to happy smiling faces, what an experience.

Canoe Wales are offering the chance for everyone to have a go on a Tuesday night at CIWW 5.30-7pm. If you are interested contact Nigel Midgely on 07971 783080 or nigel.midgley@canoewales.com

What an amazing evening!

We made dream catchers, had a brilliant talk from a member of Cardiff Bat Society, had a lovely BBQ and sang songs around the camp fire whilst drinking hot chocolate and toasting marshmallows - Yummy!

We eventually managed to settle in our tents and had a peaceful nights sleep - late to bed and early to rise!

THIRD TIME LUCKY!

After consulting with the local weather department we have made the decision to postpone tomorrows Sports Day  until Thursday 9^th July 2015.

The forecast for tomorrow is predicting rain from 12.00 p.m. until 3.00 p.m. when no doubt the sun will shine.  This means that we would not be able to complete the events safely and all participants and spectators would be thoroughly miserable.

In the event that the weather forecast dramatically alters for the worse on Thursday we will regrettably have to forgo Sports Day this year – so please keep your fingers crossed that the current prediction for perfect conditions remains unaltered.

Thank you for your continued support in this matter.

After consulting with the local weather department we have made the difficult decision to postpone Sports Day until Tuesday 7th July.

The Forecast for today is predicting rain all afternoon with heavy rain about 2 pm. This means we would not be able to complete even half of the events safely and all participants and spectators would be miserable!

Thank you to everyone who rallied around to provide gazebos and event shelters. It appears our rally cry scared away the scorching sunshine as predicted at the start of the week and has left us with the usual sports day headache - will it or won't it rain?!

We want to proceed as normal but should a deluge of rain appear not only would we be left with a running track which would be too slippery, but most importantly it would spoil the enjoyment of everyone involved, including the children.

Thank you for your continued support and understanding. We hope to see you next Tuesday.

We are currently celebrating our Golden Jubilee - Have you looked at our growing photo archive?

What a winning team! A boys and a mixed team were entered in to the Mini Reds Tennis competition organised by Sport Cardiff which was held at David Lloyd Tennis Centre. The team went along with the idea of having fun and learning from the other schools that were there. They played well as individuals and as a team, encouraging each other and displaying excellent sportsmanship.

What a fantastic result, gold for the boys and silver for the mixed team. We are all very proud of you.
