QUAY NEWS Number 41 EBRILL/ NEWYDDION CEI APRIL 2014 QUAY NEWS Number 41 Connah’s Quay High School winners of the President Cup Welsh Finals A fantastic performance by the U18s Connah's Quay High School netball team in the President’s Cup Welsh finals at Deeside Leisure Centre on Saturday 29th March. The girls played exceptional netball and worked hard as a team to win the tournament for the third year running. Their first game was against Ysgol Gyfun Gwyr and was a very good win to start the tournament off, the score was 13-3. Connah's Quay then played their 2nd game against Welshpool which they won 12-8. After a close battle on court they edged their way to victory. They won their 3rd game 17-2 against Ysgol Duffryn Aman comfortably. The 4th game was crucial against Haberdashers’ Monmouth School For Girls as both teams had won all their games so far. The girls pulled out a great performance in a close game and beat them 14-9. Connah's Quay then continued to win all of their games, beating St Teilo’s High School 21-6 and Bryntirion School 15- 10. The girls sealed the Championship in the last game beating Brynrefail 15-5, making them the winners and crowned the best u18s school netball team in Wales.

He came to interview Mr Jennings and the F1 Team to produce a report as a centre piece for the magazine. He wanted to focus on our success representing Wales for two years running at the world finals. He was very impressed with the pit display and the trophies that we have won over the past few seasons. He was also very keen to understand the future careers for the team members, their route and courses into higher education. Full F1 story on pages 2 and 3. YSGOL UWCHRADD CEI CONNAH CONNAH’S QUAY HIGH SCHOOL 1 NATIONAL FINAL BIG BANG EVENT NEC, Birmingham, 14th and 15th March 2014 On 14th and 15th March 2014, team Red Dragon Racing travelled to Birmingham to compete in the F1 In Schools National Final. Team members George Cox, Rhys Nimmo, Casey Burke and Lewis Steen went through to the nationals after a superb performance at Bangor University’s Regional Final. On day one we arrived at the venue at 08:00 to set up the teams pit area before the start of the competition at 10:00. We were also joined by Jade Gilroy from our new sponsor SKF based in Luton. Jade spent the whole day with the team including observing the four races and the engineering presentation. Red Dragon Racing faced a difficult first day with a number of challenges, starting with their verbal presentation. This gave each of the four team members the opportunity to describe their roles. Soon afterwards George Cox and Casey Burke were scrutinised as part of their engineering presentation impressing the two judges with their technical knowledge. This gave the team a huge opportunity not only to explain but also show the technical advances made since the Regional Final. Next came the four races which saw team manager George Cox achieving a very fast reaction time with the car travelling the 20m distance in 1.213 seconds. All team members were interviewed before the race. All of this was filmed and shown via ‘YouTube’ through F1 In Schools website. By the end of day one finishing at 5pm, team Red Dragon Racing had performed so well, not only impressing the judges and our new sponsor but also the general public who attended the Big Bang fair. More racing would continue on day two with a race off at 11:30am. Day two started at 09:00am with the team re-stocking their merchandise in preparation for a busy day with the general public. Two judging sessions in the morning starting at 09:45 with their pit display and design folder. Both could not have gone any better with other judges being told to look and study our pit. Around 11am all the racing had been completed. Thirty teams from across the UK had all raced and were now eagerly awaiting the final ranking. This includes how your car meets the technical regulations alongside your fastest team. At 11:15am the display on the big screen showed that Red Dragon Racing were ranked 4th out of the 30 teams. As far as this competition goes, we have never been ranked so high and clearly demonstrates how much progress has been made. The knock out stage came next with the team easily moving forward to the quarter finals collecting valued points along the way. At mid-day all the teams were invited to a science show whilst the judges calculated the scores from each of the categories. Our anticipation of the final outcome was not too F1 team with Jade Gilroy from our new sponsor SKF far away. 2 www.connahsquayhs.org.uk The awards ceremony started at 4pm with a view of the Abu Dhabi race circuit and Ferrari World where the World Finals will be held in November 2014. Red Dragon Racing were awarded the Best Pit Display and were crowned Welsh Champions. This now means that Red Dragon Racing will now compete at the World Finals representing Wales and the school. This would not have been possible without the support from all of our teams sponsors. DRB, E.ON Flintshire Caravans, Great Bear Distribution ICam Engineering, John Dale North Wales Crusaders RFL Queensferry Sports, Rybrook Volvo Tata Steel, Willow Signs and our latest sponsor SKF MENCAP TRAINING SESSION Sarah Pickard of MENCAP Cardiff visited the school to give a talk about the organisation. The name MENCAP is a derivative of the derogatory term ‘Mentally Handicapped’, dealing with mental health and physical disability issues. The group of Year 10 and 11 learners attended the session. They all found it really interesting, learning new facts about MENCAP working in the wider community. The group were praised by the speakers as being attentive, well- mannered and asking thought provoking relevant questions. The group found the statistics rather surprising and shocking. All learners said they found the presentation informative and worthwhile.

  • Circular Economy Approaches for the Apparel Industry
    University of St.Gallen Hochschule für Wirtschafts-, Rechts- und Sozialwissenschaften Circular Economy Approaches for the Apparel Industry Master Thesis Author Lukas Fuchs Rorschacher Strasse 56 9000 St.Gallen Student number: 09-607-763 E-Mail: [email protected] Advisor Prof. Dr. Thomas Dyllick Institute for Economy and the Environment Submitted on May 23rd, 2016 Management Summary With the thesis at hand seven different business models have been investigated on their ability to function as Circular Economy business models in the apparel industry. The different business models have been explained theoretically and exemplified with real business cases from around the world. To complement the conducted primary research, the author has conducted several expert interviews. Then the different models’ ability to contribute to the solution of the waste and pollution difficulties caused by the linear take-make-dispose model employed throughout the industry is assessed. Five categories have been derived to rate the degree of change the business models can add in the development towards a Circular Economy. The results show that only a fully Circular Supply Chain model is able to enhance systemic change at large scale while eliminating waste and pollution through its inherent design.

The company used it as a basis for devising. The final script was written later on in the process. 1 Narrator: It never used to snow like this. Maybe once in a blue moon. You can tell how unusual it is because nobody’s got the weather gear to cope with it. M & S don’t sell arctic parkas yet. Pensioners are being pulled like ice lollies from snowdrifts up and down the country but in M&S the rails are still full of shower-proof anoraks. Michael Fish says it’s here to stay. Something to do with Global Warming and the Gulf Stream. It’s all our fault apparently. Who’d’ve thought you could change the weather by mistake. Every time you turned the ignition key of your car – whoops! – another snow shower twenty years down the line. How do you explain it to your kids? “Wrap up son, ‘cause your mother and I drove to B&Q once too often and inadvertently started an ice age.” Look at these two.

  • Get Your Coat: Examining the Development of Independent
    1 Get Your Coat: Examining the Development of Independent Dressing Skills in Young Children with Visual Impairment in comparison with Young Children with Down syndrome and Typically Developing Children Jessica Antonia Hayton UCL Institute of Education Thesis submitted to University College London for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisors: Dr. Dagmara Dimitriou and Dr. Karl Wall May 2016 Jessica Hayton 2 Declaration I, Jessica Hayton, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I can confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signature:……………………………… Date:…………………….. Word count: 89,752 (excluding references and appendices). Jessica Hayton 3 Abstract The ability to independently dress is a fundamental skill for children. Vision is an integrative sense. Sight affords the opportunity for individuals to learn independence skills via observation. The absence of vision, or a reduced visual capacity, restricts access to this form of learning (Lewis & Iselin, 2002). As a result of this restricted access, children with visual impairment (VI) and conditions where VI is a component (e.g. Down syndrome (DS)) require systematic and structured support. This is to facilitate the development of independent dressing skills. There has been little research to date relating to strategies for successful dressing, or the effectiveness of such strategies in children (as most of the research has been based around the re-habilitation of adults: e.g. Klein, 1983). This thesis reports an observationally based pre-test, intervention, post-test study. It examines the effectiveness of novel intervention materials and systematic strategies to support independent dressing abilities in young children.

  • A Clean Sweep by Angelika Waldis. Translated by Sharon Howe. 1
    A Clean Sweep by Angelika Waldis. Translated by Sharon Howe. 1. INCOGNITO Luisa has resolved to have a clear-out. And Alfred will be first to go. She has been married to Alfred for nearly forty years. Alfred is an egosaurus. Always putting himself first, always did. The fact that he shared a home with Luisa and their two daughters had about as much impact on his life as the rubbish collection schedule. "I'm an artist" he would say. "He's an artist, you see", Luisa would say. She said it for years, knowing all the while that he was no such thing. She is on the train to Vienna, leafing through her travel guide. It's way out of date, but that doesn't matter. She has never been to Vienna. "I'm seventy years of age and I've never been to Vienna", she said to the hairstylist. "It's about time I treated myself – why not? Go on, make me pretty." "Are you sure you want it cropped to an inch, Frau Gallmann?" the stylist asked. "Positive. Off with it!" And the stylist started cutting, snipping away the clumps of curls that had remained unchanged for decades. Now Luisa can see her new look reflected in the train window. She looks younger with her short grey hair. Almost like a man. Behind her head, fields and woods flash through the summer evening, illuminated with streaks of red sunset. Beautiful. 1 Before long, the ticket collector appears. He registers her electronic ticket. One return to Vienna. "Have a nice evening, madam." She puts the ticket away carefully; that will serve as evidence of her journey.
