Having the kids off over the summer

holidays can be costly.When there’s a wet day, or you just needto calm it down a bit, art and craft activitiesat home can come into their own. They arefree and get kids thinking about reusing thingsthey‘ve finished with before recycling them

A quick trawl around the house can unearthsome great supplies. Why not make it part ofthe adventure?

Cereal boxes are nice thin cardboard, letters

that are only printed on one side becomedrawing paper, while dessert pots couldn’t bebetter for paint.

When it comes to what to make themes canwork well. To make musical instruments thinkdrums or shakers, so tubes (loo roll, Pringles)or large yoghurt pots that can be filled withanything that’ll make a noise are great.

Or the theme could be about different skills,cutting and weaving are popular for smallerchildren. Crisp packets and those foil pouchesthat Capri sun drinks come in are good here asthey can be cut into strips.

To make a collage, the string bags that orangescome in, bubble wrap from strawberry traysand scrunched up crisp packets are all unusual

textures. Use different materials as part of a

‘story in a box’ project, about the beach, or afavourite CBeebies show.

Why not leave it to their imagination some-times with a ‘what can you make with this?’challenge.

A last top tip is to always try to have some-where to store any ongoing project so thatyou don’t have to move it every time you needthe table to fold the washing on or eat tea at,a sofa on legs is always a good place to push

things under!Sam Harrison

 Waste Awareness Officer,The Vale of Glamorgan Council

recycling can be fun!

Respect, what is respect? An easyway to think of respect is to treatother people in a way that weourselves would like to be treated.

Some of the ways we can respecteach other are listed below:

Listen to others when they are tellingyou their ideas/opinions, withoutinterrupting, critising, or pokingfun at.

Try not to gossip or tell lies aboutothers, as this can hurt a person’sfeelings.

Give a compliment when someonehas tried really hard at something.

The trying is what counts.Accept we are all different.We all look different, and all havedifferent personalities. Being unique isfabulous!

The Vale of Glamorgan Council aims to keepfoster children in the Vale, rather than findingplacements in other counties. When a childmoves into foster care outside their owncounty, they leave their family, their friends,their school and their support network.

As part of the campaign, the council appointedfoster carer, Kay Griffiths MBE, as one of its‘fostering ambassadors’ for the Vale. Kay, whofosters with her husband David, said:

“My husband and I made that call to fosteringservices more than 35 years ago and have neveronce regretted it. “Every child deserves thechance to have a happy and fulfilled life and somechildren are not able to live with their own fami-lies for different reasons. “Foster care has a hugeimpact on a child, whether it’s for a few weeksor for years. As a foster carer, you have the

opportunity to give a child happy memories fora lifetime, no matter what has happened before,or what may happen later in their lives. For myhusband and I, it has been a privilege.”

The Vale council’s fostering team welcomesapplications from people from all walks of life,whether you are interested in providing fostercare for respite, emergency, short-term or long-term placements.

What are the requirements to be a foster carer? 

Do you have at least one spare bedroom, astable lifestyle and access to transport?

Are you a great communicator, with patienceand tolerance?

Have you got energy and motivation?

Do you have time and commitment?

Can you empathise with a child and manage chal-lenging behaviour?

If the answer is yes, the council’s fostering team

would love to hear from you.

What do foster carers receive? 

Dedicated support 24 hours a day, 7 days aweek, 52 weeks a year 

Competitive rates of pay

Comprehensive training leading to professionalqualifications

Access to monthly support forums, where youcan share experiences with other foster carers

Support from our fostering team, including yourown allocated supervising social worker 

Do you live in the Vale of Glamorgan? 

Could you foster?

Lots of people start diets with the best ofintentions but can often find themselves givingup very quickly, defeated by hunger, boredomor feelings of deprivation. At Slimming Worldwe want people to know that losing weightdoesn’t have to be that way, that not allslimming attempts are doomed and not all‘diets’ are the same. It’s easy to be wooed by

the plans that promise the fastest loss, but it’sreally important that slimmers think sensiblyabout which plan they choose and look atwhich offers the most chance of long-termsuccess. Diets based on deprivation can bevery unhealthy and are almost impossible tokeep up, meaning you’re bound to throw inthe towel!

Slimming World’s Food Optimising eatingplan is flexible and generous. Our members

are able to satisfy their appetite on hundredsof healthy, everyday foods like fruit and veg,pasta, rice, potatoes, lean meat, poultry,fish, fat-free dairy, eggs and more, so smallportions are a thing of the past and you neverhave to go hungry! It means you can enjoyall your favourite meals just by making smallchanges to the way you shop, cook and eatand still eat the same healthy dishes as therest of your family.

At Slimming World members alsodevelop the skills and tools to overcome thepsychological and emotional challenges thatevery slimmer faces at some point, includinglearning to be kind to yourself and get ‘backon the horse’ when you do have a blip.Anyone who wants to lose weight withoutever going hungry will find a world of supportat your local Slimming World group.

Children aged between 11-16yrs are alsowelcome with a plan showing “cool swaps”helping them make informed decisions.

 John’s Cafe is the oldest cafe

on Barry Island and one of

the oldest cafes in Wales.

It was opened in 1928 by

the John family and built its

reputation on good food,

good service & cleanliness.

During World War II the

cafe was used as barracks forservicemen ariving at Barry

Dock. Over the years the cafe

has served many generations

of families, both local and as

holiday makers who return

year after year.

It has recently been given a

fresh new look, undergoing

a complete refurbishment to

bring an early 20th century

cafe into the 21st century,

whilst retaining a traditional

seaside cafe feel. The current

owners Carl & Graham

continue with the original

cafe philosophy offering good

food, good service, cleanliness

and value for

money. They

now sell a large

range of cakes

and pastries

which are a great

accompaniament

to an afternoon

coffee. Thecafe offers a

large outside

seating area with

fantastic sea

views - a wonderful place

to sit and watch the world

go by whilst eating one of

their famous homemade ice

cream desserts. All the ice

cream desserts are made with

Mario’s award winning ice

cream and are mouthwatering

on a hot sunny afternoon.

The cafe still offers all the

traditional seaside fayre - Cod

& Chips, Sausage & chips,

Egg & Chips, but still to this

day use only homemade

chips. The roast meals are a

particular favourite with the

regulars whilst a lighter option

could be a Panini with their

homemade coleslaw. A warm

welcome awaits you at the

OLDEST & the BEST cafe onBarry Island.

Cyberbullying is when someone uses

technology, like the internet or a mobile

phone, to deliberately hurt, humiliate, harass,

intimidate or threaten someone else. It is

different from bullying at school or in the

community because it can happen at any time

of the day or night and it may feel like youcan’t get away from it. This may leave you

feeling scared and unsafe at home.

Top 10 tips if you are being cyberbullied

1) Tell an adult you trust if you are beingcyberbullied

 2) Don’t respond or retaliate to bullying messages– it could make things worse

3) Block users who send you nasty messages4) Save abusive emails or messages (or texts) youreceive

5) Make a note of dates and times you receivebullying messages, as well as details you have of theuser’s ID and the url.

6) Don’t pass on any cyberbullying videos ormessages – this is cyberbullying

7) If you are bullied repeatedly change your userID, or profile, and use a name that doesn’t give anyinformation away about you

8) Visit CyberMentors https://cybermentors.org.uk/ – you can report any cyberbullying you see tocybermentors even if it isn’t targeted at you.

9) You can talk to someone at Child Line or getonline safety advice at http://www.childline.org.uk/talk/Pages/Talk.aspx

10) http://www.thinkuknow.co.uk/ is anothervery useful website for children and young peoplestaying safe online

Brighten up a room with this quick and easyrecycled craft idea which uses an old foil pie

plate and sweet wrappers!

Care should be taken with very young chil-

dren as the points of the “sun” can be sharp.

You will need:

Foil pie plate

Sweet wrappers

Glue

Needle and thread 

Cut triangles around the sides of the pie plate

making a set of points. Fold out the points to

make your sun shape.

Glue sweet wrappers to each point of the sun.

Don’t worry about cutting them to shape: just

trim when they have dried.

Decorate the center of the sun by gluing onsome scrunched up sweet wrappers. Punch a

small hole and thread a loop of thread through

the top of the sun to hang.
