P.S.E.
It was fantastic to meet so many Year 6 pupils during the PSE

means to make a good first impression, to share their
experiences of working with others from other schools and out-
side of their usual peer group and to interview another student.

new ways. We hope that the taster session was a fun and
interactive introduction to PSE at Bryntirion.
