Send My Friend To School

Send My Friend To School: "Simon Hart MP is helping the junior pupils at Tremoilet VCP School in Pendine get involved in the SEND MY FRIEND TO SCHOOL CAMPAIGN.

"In the year 2000, world leaders agreed to try to get all children into school by 2015," explains teacher Marina Howells. "In the last year the campaign has hit the wall. With only 3 years to go there are still 67 million children out of school."

This year, linked to the Olympics, there is a "Go for Gold" campaign to try to win this global education race and get all the remaining 67 million children into school by 2015."

TENBY TODAY | NEWS | Lifeboats launched to assist teenagers | 2012

TENBY TODAY | NEWS | Lifeboats launched to assist teenagers | 2012: "Milford Haven Coastguard requested the immediate launch of both Tenby all-weather and inshore lifeboats on Sunday after a teenage girl and her friend got into trouble whilst swimming off Morfa Bychan, near Pendine.
In the meantime, the father of the 14-year-old swam out to help the two girls and managed to get them back to the rocks.
Both RNLI lifeboats, the all-weather Haydn Miller and inshore Georgina Taylor, battled rough seas to reach Morfa Bychan, but fortunately, as they arrived on scene, the casualties just made it to the shore.
The girls, who were from Abergavenny, were met by coastguards and were then treated by paramedics for minor cuts, having climbed over rocks to reach the shore.
The lifeboats carried out a search of the area to make sure nobody else was in trouble before returning to station. "
