Time to breathe, finally.
The busiest period of the St Madoc Centre’s year, the School
Summer Term, has begun. Schools from all over Swansea will be visiting us over
the next two months, and our staff will be entertaining the pupils with outdoor
activities like beach scavenger hunts, wide games in the woods and shelter
building. 
We’re currently two weeks into the Summer Term and we've already had nearly 150 children visit us, from years 3 to 6. It’s been hard,
but incredibly rewarding, work. I think it’s safe to say that this period of
frantic activity is my favourite time of the year, putting smiles on the faces
of children is one of the many perks of working where I do.
The weather has not been especially helpful so far, but the forecast for the coming weeks is good, and we’re hopeful our stock of water-balloons will get used at some point. We have managed to get to our beautiful beach with every class so far, and we have been caught in the rain once or twice whilst there, but that just made us appreciate the sun more when it clambered out from behind the clouds.
After those frantic two weeks we’ve now got a week off,
without a group on site, to prepare for our first class to stay for the full
week. I’m sure I’m not the only member of staff who’s glad of the rest…
Upcoming Events:
Volunteer Day, 6th June, all day.
Art Exhibition, 6th June, evening only.
