I spent a wonderful afternoon in Llanishen Fach Primary School to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the official opening of the Junior Building.  The hall was packed with staff members, past and present, Governors, parents and local people.  Many people had dressed up in 60's gear and looked terrific.

 

Parents and ex pupils are invited to visit the school over the next two weeks to see the exhibition of old photographs and artefacts which explain the history of the school.  Well worth a visit.

 

A successful Coffee Morning in aid of Girlguiding Rhiwbina took place on Saturday morning.  The weather was fantastic and the kind people who came along were only too happy to part with their hard earned money to help with the running of the hall in Rhiwbina.  For more information about the Guides, please contact me.

 

On the 9th July, Rhiwbina will host its annual Festival between 10am - 4pm.  There will be family street entertainment, a magician, bouncy castle and various street stalls.  There will also be a flower festival, photographic exhibitions and refreshments.  Something for everyone.  If you would like a brochure or more information, please let me know and I will put you in touch with the organisers.

 

Cardiff Council want more people who live in Cardiff to enjoy Cardiff's "countryside on the doorstep" - its parks, woodlands, river valleys, waterfront and other green spaces.  Please let me know what your "special place" is and why it is special to you so that the Council can tell others about it. 

 

Thank you to all the people who have expressed interest in the Christmas Card Competition.  All images need to be in black and white and no bigger than A4 in size.  If any individual or company would like to help with sponsorship, I would be only too pleased to meet with them to discuss the details involved.  The St John Ambulance Brigade is such a worthwhile Charity that I hope a lot of money can be raised to go towards the purchase of a laptop and projector.  Please send all completed entries, along with your name, address and age to 198 Manor Way, Cardiff.  CF14 1RP.

 

 My next ward surgery is on Saturday 25th June, between 10.30am - 12 noon at the Nine Giants Public House, Thornhill Road, Rhiwbina.  Please pop in for a coffee and a chat.
