Breakfast reinvented!

A new and exciting breakfast snack created by pupils from Llanrumney High School is being sold in all schools in Cardiff.
The Breakfast Tortilla comes in three flavors and was designed by Yr 9
pupils Daniel and Marcus. The young entrepreneurs designed the healthy
breakfast snack as part of Cardiff Councils Live ‘n’ Cooking” competition.
“It is brilliant seeing our idea being sold in the school canteen and
amazing to think that  every school in Cardiff is also selling them…Wish
we were getting a share of the profit, next time we will go and see the
Dragons Den team!” Commented Marcus and Daniel.

Year 7 Enterprise Day

On Thursday 13th November, pupils in Year 7 took part in an enterprise challenge. They had to design and manufacture a belt out of recyclable materials. Each member had to be allocated a role within their group. At the end a member of each group had to model the belt on stage. It was an exciting day. All pupils had the opportunity to develop their essential skills, such as working with others, problem solving, creavtive design, measuring and cutting, to name a few!
Great fun was had by all.

SNAG Update

Good bye Coca cola

At the last SNAG (School Nutritional Action Group) we met with Cardiff Councils Nutritional Advisor who told us about the Welsh Governments plans to ban sugary fizzy drinks in school vending machines. In 2013 all sugary fizzy drink will be banned from all schools in Wales. To get ready for the ban Llanrumney High School will stop selling full sugar Coca Cola, the drink will be replaced with alternative healthy smoothie drink. Over the course of the year more sugary drinks will be replaced with healthy alternatives.
