On Friday night, 4th November, the Welsh department took a group of pupils from years 10, 11 and 12 to the Grand Pavilion in Porthcawl to see the new Welsh show ‘Salsa’. The theatre company said that it was set to rival Strictly Come Dancing and that everyone should take their dancing shoes. The show was about a married couple who had lost interest in each other so the wife, Rhian wanted to go to dancing lessons to help with their marriage. Her husband, Wayne wasn’t too keen o the idea, he preferred to star gaze than face his problems. Off they went then to the dancing lessons and when the dance teacher walked in, a very attractive dance teacher, Wayne instantly fell in love. Rhian fell as well, but face flat onto the floor!  Rhian wasn’t able to dance anymore so Wayne started lying about his whereabouts – claiming he was going for a walk when he was really going to the dance lessons to dance with the dance teacher – Adela Vegas. Wayne soon found out that he was a good dancer and Adela asked him to dance with her in a dance competition. However, Rhian discovered Wayne’s secret and was not impressed with his lying ways. Fortunately for Wayne, Rhian went to the competition and saw how good a dancer Wayne was and the pair left hand in hand having found each other again. The show was extremely amusing and everyone cried tears of laughter. When the show finished, the pupils got the chance to get up on the stage and show off their dance moves – a truly unforgettable experience!

Treorchy Cadets win Silver at first attempt

Competing for the 1st time in the Cadet Cambrian Patrol Competition, held on the 18th & 19th September, the Treorchy Comprehensive School CCF team were awarded a silver medal.
The competition is open to cadets from all over Wales, and is a true test of physical and mental endurance. The cadets work as a team to navigate a route of approximately 22 km, via a series of checkpoints, where they are tested on various aspects of the Cadet syllabus, including 1st Aid, field craft and map reading.
 
The Treorchy Comprehensive School team were the highest scoring junior team from a CCF, beating more established CCF’s in private schools. The patrol commander was Cadet Sgt Catherine Lumby, who despite sustaining an injury early into the competition continued to lead her team, knowing that if she dropped out the team would lose points.
 
The whole team were extremely tired at the prize giving on Sunday afternoon, but can be very proud of their efforts and the Silver medals that they were awarded.
 
Uncovering Chemical Secrets
 
On Wednesday the 15th of September a number of our Chemistry A level class attended a course at the University of Wales, Cardiff. The title of the course was ‘Uncovering chemical secrets’ and the pupils certainly did this! The day consisted of a morning lecture on chemical synthesis, an opportunity to complete a number of exciting experiments in the university laboratory and a tour of the Chemistry department where a number of expensive analytical machines and techniques were explained in detail.
 
The students thoroughly enjoyed the day and found it extremely useful as it covered a number of topics that they will be examined on in January as part of their A level qualification. It also gave the students a taste of university life, which hopefully they will experience next year when they leave Treorchy Comprehensive and embark on their future careers!
 
Outstanding Performances by our Dancers
 
Congratulations to the dancers from Year 9, 10, 11,12 & 13 for giving outstanding and professional performances at the Skills Cymru Conference held at the Millennium Stadium on the 16th & 17th September. All groups were invited to perform to an audience of students, teachers and exhibiters from across Wales and thoroughly enjoyed the day. Each performance was shown on the large screens in the Stadium throughout the day and footage was later shown on the ITV news.
