EDUCATION
Make education
your number one
resolution!
WHATEVERS on your list of
new years resolutions for 2012,
make sure your childs educa-
tion is at the top.
In todays increasingly com-
petitive workplace, it is more
important than ever to make
the right decisions for your
child as early as possible. At
Llandovery College, pupils are
encouraged to be the very best
they can be in small classrooms
and in an environment where
every child is valued.
From the very first day, our
boarding and day pupils
embark upon a journey where
values, respect, intellectual
curiosity, emotional maturity
and interpersonal skills are
seen to be every bit as impor-
tant as the primary aim of aca-
demic excellence.
Llandovery College has a
strong academic record with a
100% GCSE pass rate in 2011.
Our 2011 A level results were
the best on record with 60 per
cent of students achieving A*-B
grades.
Every pupil in College is pro-
vided with a Samsung netbook,
fully equipped with the latest
software required to enhance
the whole learning experience.
Added to this, all our class-
rooms are fitted with up-to-the-
minute interactive Smart
Boards, designed to appeal to
every learning preference.
Music and arts flourish at
Llandovery and are a vibrant
part of everyday life with a mul-
titude of choirs, drama, song
and dance. Those seeking
adventure thrive from our
thrilling Combined Cadet Force
and Duke of Edinburgh
schemes.
Sport is synonymous with
Llandovery College. Our repu-
tation for first class rugby is
unparalleled with an amazing
45 full internationals passing
through the College gates. Our
passion for sport means every-
one finds something they enjoy
rugby, hockey, fencing, golf,
athletics, shooting, archery,
basketball and netball. Full use
is made of the 45 acres of play-
ing fields, a golf course, boating
lake, fully equipped gym, all
weather pitchand indoor sports
hall.
Welsh for all
THE Mid Wales Welsh for Adults
Centre is offering a range of new
courses for 2012. If you are a fluent
Welsh speaker but would like to
brush up your written skills for pro-
fessional or personal reasons, why
not join Idris Reynolds for a 10/20
week course in Cardigan Castle.
We also have new courses for com-
plete beginners in various venues,
and special sessions for families with
babies and/or toddlers.
Details of our courses inCeredigion
can be found on the Centres website
www.learnwelshinmidwales.org
If you have a child in a Junior
School in Ceredigion please enquire
at your childs school about Welsh
courses for parents or phone 01545
572715. If you would like to join one of
our sessions for families with babies
and/or toddlers please contact the
Centre on 0800 876 6975.
The Centres Welsh for Adults stu-
dent of the year, Jac Forster, seen
here with her husband Marc and
their two sons, who all speak Welsh,
is certainly a shining example to all
those learning Welsh. Jac, who was
born in London, has worked very
hard over the past four years to learn
Welsh in order to establish Welsh as
the language of the home. If you see
Jac, and you speak Welsh, cofiwch
siarad hi yn Gymraeg (remember to
speak to her in Welsh).
