Headway is a national charity with a base in Cardiff which aims to improve life after brain injury and provide information, support and services to people affected by brain injury, their family and carers. Every day this week, different year groups within the College and Senior School have brought in cakes or cookies as part of the Great Howell’s Bake-Off. Every entry has received two house points and Mrs Price and the kitchen staff have been delighted to be the judges of what may well become an annual competition. House points have been awarded for the best tasting, the best presentation and the most creative cakes, and I am delighted to tell you the results are: Baldwin wins with 394 points, Trotter with 287 points, Kendall with 240 points and Lewis with 200 points. The amount of money raised for Headway is nearly £500. Well done to everyone who has made, judged, bought and eaten cakes this week! Dates for Your Diary On Wednesday, I attended the Extended Project presentations by Year 13. I was extremely impressed by the standard of the presentations given by College students. The eight students taking part spoke to the audience confidently and knowledgably on the topics they had chosen to study. I heard about Statistics and Football, Face Further Ahead Transplants and Stradivarius violins, to mention just a few of the many and varied topics that were covered. -
