Howard Davies from S4C Ralio came into Penglais School as part of the Go Motorsport scheme to talk to the pupils and with a quiz for the pupils to win tickets to Rally GB. The pupils all knew who he was as they are avid fans of the rallying program on S4C. He was a hit with the pupils and told them lots of rallying stories and showed them photographs from rallies he had competed in. The 1996 British Rally champion then gave the pupils a competition on questions relating to the Design and Technology curriculum Resistant Materials. The pupils were then given a set of rally questions. Howard then marked the competition sheets with expert markers Fiona Balchin and Garwyn Davies, it was very close but the winner by one point was Tom Smith in Year 9. He got an all-day pass for the Friday and had an absolutely fantastic time.

Thank you very much to Howard for a fantastic opportunity, both the teachers and pupils really enjoyed your presentation at Penglais….. DIOLCH!
