Supporting Our Young People

Our Club works closely with the local High School and the 7 Primary schools in the area to provide complimentary activties to support the school curriculum. 

Below are some of the activties we provide each year.


Primary School Football Competition: each year we hold a football competition for all the primary schools in the area which is refereed by pupils of the High School. 


Youth Speaks competitions: Each year we facilitate public speaking competitions in the High School and all the local Primary Schools. This offers the pupils the opportunity to gain confidence in preparing and delivering a presentation or debating a topic in an area relevant to their annual curriculum.  The winning teams from the High School then move onto the the Area, District and potentially National finals of the Rotary Youth Speaks competition.

Young Interviewer: Each year we faciliate an opportunity for pupils from the High School to interview a prominent member of the community. The winner has the opportunity to progress to the Rotary Area and District finals.

Support to Learning through IT: We regularly support local schools with specialsit equipment

Mock Interviews: each year, we provide pupils at the High School applying for a University or work placement a practice interview with verbal and written feedback provided.The feedback is generally "tough but very worthwhile". 

Young Chef Competition: each year we facilitate a Young Chef competition at the High School. Pupils have to create a 3 course meal under the watchful eye of specialist chefs.

Young Musician: each year we provide a platform at the High School for the pupils to showcase their musical talents. The competition is held for vocalists and instrumentalists with the winners progressing to the Area, District and National finals of the Rotary Young Musician awards.

Young Writer in English and Welsh: Each year we provide an opportunity for the pupils at the High School to showcase their writing skills in English and Welsh with adjudication undertaken by a local author and the winners having the opprtunity to progress to the Area, District and National Finals.

Rotary Youth Leadership Awards: each year we offer 2-3 young people the opportunity to spend a week undergoing leadership training in the Brecon Beacons to help them fulfill their potential as people.
