David candidly shares how the head of music at his secondary school saw and encouraged his talent, when he discovered the piano at age 11. From that moment on he has never left the world of music. Next the tranquil setting of Penarth Pier and pavilion situated near Cardiff, South Wales. A place where David belongs whatever the weather. The peace, calm and unwavering beauty of this place, has captured some of his most relevant moments whilst living in Wales. Finally the Tag Carrera watch which was gifted to him by his parents on his 30th birthday during lockdown. He has very little attachment for most material things, but says this item symbolizes his need to keep facing forward, alongside his deep love and affection for the family that raised him. This week Deborah talks to the world class pianist and chorus master, David Doidge from his home in South East London about the person, place and treasured possession that have made a profound impact upon his life and why.

We're discussing catfishing, Jess's latest BBC documentaries and our collective love for both Penarth pier and Harry Styles. Strap in lads, its a good one.

It's always lovely to welcome a school colleague to the podcast! Today we say hello to Lauren Rees, who is currently the research champion at Stanwell School in Penarth, but has fulfilled every teacher-educator role in her time at the school. We're keen to hear the school perspective about how research and enquiry contributes to the development of new teachers, as well as what it does for the school as a whole. With the new curriculum upon us, is it even more important that schools engage with sources of knowledge and share them around? Plus Lauren brings us something interesting and something to try, both of which are of interest to all of us, new and old teachers alike!--------------------------------------------------------Recorded at Cardiff Metropolitan University's Cyncoed Campus on 12th July 2022

In this episode, Ladey Adey interviews Sue Trusler.Following retirement in 2018, at age 55, she returned to her passion for art and built her studio, where she creates beautiful watercolor paintings and pen and ink pointillism drawings.Growing up in the Victorian seaside town of Penarth, Sue then married and now lives in Cardiff. After a busy career in Finance, when both children flew the nest, it was time for a new chapter in her life. The opportunity to enjoy her hobbies, photography, reading, playing the piano, and exploring the countryside. During this episode, we hear how purchasing a small Narrow Boat, with an expectation of relaxing cruises and appreciating a slower pace of life, leads to fate playing a wild card. To complete her dream, Sue wanted traditional roses reinstated on their boat. With no previous art skills, she not only painted their boat but went on to paint canal roses everywhere.Sue's new passion lead to exciting opportunities and experiences. When an artistic door opened, it revealed a whole new skill set to be explored. At the start of this journey Sue discovered there was a gap in the market, she couldn't find a book to assist with painting her Narrow Boat. After a Zoom talk, it was suggested that Sue write a book to help others. Within 5 months Sue designed, wrote, and published her book - Time To Start Your Art. Sue's book starts at the very beginning, introducing Canal Art and techniques. The book is designed for amateur artists, inspiring and arming them with knowledge for them to start their art.Sue is proof that her advice is true "Write about something you feel passionate about and it will resonate throughout your book"Sue's favourite quote “ For the things we have to learn before we can do them, we learn by doing them” - ArtistotleBook 2 is currently in post-it notes, we look forward to hearing when it's ready for release, Finding Magic - Painting With PassionUseful linksGuest: Sue TruslerWebsite: https://suetrusler.com/#news Book link: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Time-start-your-art-passion/dp/1789632676/ Ladey Adey: https://www.ladeyadey.com/ Book Academy: https://www.ladeyadey.com/the-book-academy/ Vicky Galbraith - Podcast VA: www.podcastva.co.uk  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Alpaca perhaps rather curious creatures but they're rapidly gaining popularity across Wales. But why keep them? This week Pauline Smith explores the potential of these South American animals as farm livestock; a tourist attraction or simply to keep as a companion pet. At Aberystwyth University's Pwllpeiran Upland Research Centre in the Cambrian Mountains there's a herd of 8 alpaca. Scientists are studying to discover their suitability to life here in Wales and how they could provide new opportunities for hill farmers. Meanwhile at Usk Valley Alpaca in Monmouthshire they've been breeding and selling these animals for livestock and pet animals for more than a decade and are planning to double their 93 strong herd. They also run a tourism business with the Alpaca at their "Cute Farm Experience" and whatever their commercial value, Alpaca are also increasingly being used as a "therapy animal". Students have reportedly "flourished" after four alpacas were introduced at Headlands school in Penarth, in the Vale of Glamorgan.

Caroline has a catch up with Jo Jones, a fellow open water coach, channel swimmer, current record holder for the fastest Bristol Channel crossing from Penarth to Clevedon and 500m ice swimming champion. We discuss where it all started for us both and getting into swimming as kids, how you never stop learning, safety, pushing yourself too far, learning what works for you, ice miles, Russia, wetsuits, ear plugs and not comparing yourself to others. Even after all the years we have been swimming, you never stop learning. This was the first podcast I recorded and I want to thank Jo for giving me the motivation to do it. Her enthusiasm encouraged me to take the plunge and have a go. So a huge thank you.

In this weeks Science Weekly we speak to Cindy Howells who has found Dinosaur Footprints on the beaches of Penarth in Wales.    See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In all probability somebody not so far from you is living in slavery, and if you use a mobile phone or a computer then the likelihood is that you have benefitted from slave labour across the globe. Roy Jenkins investigates this growing problem in Wales and the wider world, and asks what faith communities are doing to address it. Taking part in the programme are the UK's former anti-trafficking commissioner Kevin Hyland; Ali Ussery, founder of the Colwyn Bay organisation Haven of Light; Kathy Betteridge, Director of Anti-trafficking and Modern Slavery at the Salvation Army; and photographer and youth pastor Jane Lasonder, who is based in Penarth.

We’ve travelled a whole mile away from campus for this episode, for the very first ResearchED Cymru event. ResearchED is an organisation aimed at bringing educational research to teachers in a way they can use, promoting the idea that knowing about the clues to ‘what works’ that current research gives us as teachers can save us chasing myths or getting stuck in practice that’s not the best for our pupils. ResearchED events happen on Saturdays, and this year the organisation came to Wales for the first time. There was a star-studded list of speakers for teachers to choose from… and us! While we waited to give our presentation on cross-curricular pedagogies in the expressive arts (see episode 2 of this season of the podcast for details of what we were talking about), we attended some interesting presentations, watched a video message from the mighty Dylan Wiliam, and grabbed some informal interviews with some of the big-name speakers. Now we’ve glued it all together, along with an interview with Gareth Rein who organised the event, and our own musings on the day, to give a flavour of ResearchED to anyone who hasn’t managed to attend the real thing. Our grateful thanks to everyone who contributed to this episode, and to ResearchED for inviting us to speak!   Our contributors this episode, in order of appearance: Gareth Rein (Headteacher of St Joseph’s RC Primary School, Penarth) Dylan Wiliam (Emeritus Professor of educational assessment at UCL, co-author of the seminal Inside the Black Box and AfL guru) Mary Myatt (author of The Curriculum: Gallimaufry to Coherence) David Didau (author of Making Kids Cleverer: A Manifesto for Closing the Advantage Gap and loads of other books) We also feature a blog post by John Tomsett, headteacher of Huntington School in York, which you can find here.      

If you're a regular listener, you'll recognise the wonderful woman that is Rachel Burgess from series one of the She can. She did. podcast! As the Founder of the Rachel Burgess Bridal Boutique in Penarth, Wales, Rachel is the Queen of championing Welsh designers and allowing brides from all over the UK to do bridal their way.(As it happens, she's actually just married her long-term partner Jon after the two threw a surprise wedding for friends and family in what said friend and family believed was a party to celebrate the fact that the two had been together for fifteen years! A story, which the hopeless romantic in me can't get enough of!)Anyway, when I caught up with Rachel on Friday afternoon via Zoom last week, it was the fourth Friday in a row that she was preparing for a weekend away from the boutique for the first time since launching her business eight years ago... With the boutique closed until further notice and her brides that were due to wed in the coming weeks forced to postpone, I caught up with Rachel to find out how she's coping behind the scenes so far and of course how she's adapted her plans for the boutique going forward...

In a special (very) extended edition of the podcast, recorded live in front of an audience of PGCE primary and secondary students, we’ve gathered together a panel of speakers who represent school senior leadership, government, the regional consortia and academia to present and discuss on the topic of curriculum design. Speaking just three days after the publication of the final version of the Curriculum for Wales, due to be implemented in schools from 2022, our panellists are generous with their thoughts and advice to the next generation of the profession, making it clear that we need to become curriculum designers as well as classroom practitioners.

#008. "Scott Jenkins lives and works in London, UK as a Marketing Manager for Johnson & Johnson’s knee portfolio. Born in Penarth, Cardiff, Wales, he moved to London in 2013 to pursue a career change from a GP exercise referral personal trainer to join the corporate world of Johnson & Johnson. His career has flourished as a result of his strong mental attitude, which he often attributes to his strong ultra-running resume. Scott and his brother Rhys, always look to create their own extreme ultra-endurance challenges, and where schedules match up, complete them together. By doing this they have raised over £50,000 for a variety of different charities, all of which have a special connection to each of them. In recognition of this, Scott via Johnson & Johnson, was lucky enough to complete an Operation Smile mission in 2015 in Mekele, where he assisted in screening and in theatre for the repair of Cleft Lips and Palates. Since then, Scott has been selected as 1 of 3 UK Ambassadors for the charity Operation Smile. Scott has overcome some tough mental and physical challenges in order to complete his challenges in the past, including rhabdomylosis.” I loved pretty much every single minute of this talk with Scott, super inspiring and loads to learn. I think often ultra athletes are a little bit pigeon hold to be a breed of their own but this is not the case, the things we learn in ultra are useful in so many areas of life. I also enjoyed talking to Scott about his desire to complete challenges that are not official races, the risks, the feelings and the rewards of these opposed to traditional races.

“UTTERLY EXTRAORDINARY AND DEEPLY SHAMEFUL”: Parliament is back but the Prime Minister and his lieutenants’ vicious opening performance left the country completely aghast. On their latest pints-after-politics podcast, MPs Sam Gyimah and Phillip Lee plus special guest Stephen Doughty (Labour/Co-Op MP for Cardiff South and Penarth) give their honest and unvarnished eyewitness account of this, the most unpleasant and shameful display in the Commons in recent memory.What was the Government trying to achieve? What on earth happened with Geoffrey Cox, the Attorney General? And what will the consequences be? “[This week] was a crossing of the line that I’ve never, ever seen,” says Stephen Doughty. “Johnson’s response was utterly extraordinary and deeply shameful.”Plus: How was Stephen the first MP to discover that Operation Prorogue was actually under way? (Wait til you hear who he rang and what Rees-Mogg thought about it). How is No.10 politicising the police? Do we have a government or a permanent election campaign? Will there even be that Queen’s Speech we were told is so important? Oh, and how does pro-Final Say MP Stephen feel about the Labour Conference’s decision to stick with their inscrutable Brexit policy? Smart politics, stitch-up or something else…? “Boris Johnson is now a do nothing, break everything Prime Minister.” – Sam GyimahRecorded at the Blue Boar, Westminster. Audio production by Alex Rees.

There are interesting towns to visit that are just a short train ride away including Barry Island, Llantwit Major, Penarth, and Raglan. You'll find our recommended itinerary for visiting Cardiff at the following link: The Places Where You Go Travel itinerary Cardiff, Wales We leveraged “DK Eyewitness Travel Guide Great Britain” for identifying specific attractions to include during our trip.  The book was helpful to identify walking tours, museums, as well as providing days and times that specific places are open to visit.  We recommend purchasing a book similar to this one when planning a longer trip. Join Us Next Time Our next episode will continue exploring the Cardiff City Center.  We'll discuss food options, lodging and general tips. What will you visit on a trip to Cardiff?  We'll see you at the places where we go. Julie & Art  

Episode 2 Show Notes: Getting ready to visit Wales and England On this episode, we talk about planning our UK trip which included stops in England and Wales.  Our longer trips like this always begin with assessing the budget, so as to fit in trips that work with our financial situation. Julie has been active doing genealogy research on her family.  This sparked an interest to visit places from where her family emigrated to the United States.  As Sweden is one such place with still living relatives, this was our initial plan, and we considered Stockholm and Sodra Lian during our early planning However, having recently completing an Ancestry DNA kit, Julie was surprised to see a large percentage of ancestry from the United Kingdom.  This sparked new interest as she traced her lineage to the Ragland clan in the village of Raglan, Wales, where there is a present-day castle ruin.  She decided this would be a cool place to visit. Our planning shifted to the United Kingdom.  Julie's lineage came from Wales (Raglan, Llantwit Major, Penarth, Barry) and England (Watchet, Somerset) – places around in the general area of the Bristol Channel.  With Julie tracing her family tree in that part of the world to the 1400s, this started to give us an outline of places to consider for our visit. Our planning timeline for lengthy trips like this usually begins around 8 months in advance.  We discuss why advance planning is important when travelling to popular destinations. But then, our trip planning hit the pause button due to Brexit.  Not certain of how this political situation might impact travel, we watch the news and read the newspapers so as to avoid a situation that might result in social unrest.  Ultimately we decide to venture forward with our UK travel plans regardless as no Brexit solution was found by three months before our calendar was showing our tentative UK trip. Art's dad spent five years (1943-1948) in England during World War II upon leaving a Polish refugee camp in Palestine.  Adding the English footsteps of Art's dad to the itinerary would add stops in London (for Osterley Park and Richmond Palace, where Art's dad was invited by Lady Jersey, actress Virginia Cherrill, to spend holiday time), Halton and the Trenchard Museum, and Liverpool. An itinerary influenced with tracing family lineage would keep us from visiting Scotland, Ireland, and Poland – places that were on our radar at the early stages of planning this trip.  A trip that takes you to very specific places will likely cause you to leave out many otherwise popular tourist destinations. Art doesn't get to include his bucket list item of attending an English Premier League game on this trip. We used TripAdvisor to identify attractions to see once we had our short list of cities identified for this UK trip.  We selected Cardiff to be our hub in Wales.  That would make it easy to get to several places in Wales including Raglan, Barry Island as well as key attractions we selected in Cardiff. We leveraged “DK Eyewitness Travel Guide Great Britain” for identifying specific attractions to include during our trip.  The book was helpful to identify walking tours, museums, as well as providing days and times that specific places are open to visit.  We recommend purchasing a book similar to this one when planning a longer trip. The book, “Survivors of War: One Family's Struggle Through World War II” by Dan Dobrucki and Walerian Joseph Dobrucki proved to be another helpful resource for planning this personal family history journey. Because our UK trip included very specific places, planning the trip ourselves versus with a travel agent turned out to offer us the best approach. This episode sets the stage and context for the upcoming UK episodes where we'll talk specifically about the places we visited.  Our next episode will focus on Cardiff City Center. Where would a trip to trace your family history take you to?  Consider tracing your family history to develop a personally fulfilling travel itinerary.  We'll see you at the places where we go.

‘Successful organisations have a concept of lessons learnt, and learning from those   In this episode, Gavin is in conversation with Jason Dunlop, Director of Growth for Xcina Ltd and Lifeboat Operations Manager for RNLI at Penarth. He has also undertaken the role of Water Incident  Manager for the RNLI flood rescue team throughout the last 10 Years.  Jason has considerable expertise and experience in digital and personal resilience and the development of leaders to enable them to move through a change process and evaluate dynamically. He shares the key elements required to build resilience and provides an insightful view of evaluating dynamically and the positive difference it can make.     KEY TAKEAWAYS  We now live in a digitally reliant world. A world where everything around us, and everything we do is reliant on a digital environment - our phones, our homes, cars, the way we shop and spend is all driven by a digital medium.  To understand how we survive, how we maintain and grow in a digital world requires us to think about and plan through scenarios of set-up, scenarios of maintaining, through scenarios of growing and scenarios of responding, what we do when things don’t go to plan.  Resilience is the ability of an organisation to respond effectively to challenges such as threat actors and growth or decline. A resilient individual is one who can look at a situation they are facing analyse it and then have the ability to think, focus, grow and move forward in a consistent way.  The training and development of your staff are what makes your business resilient. When the people process, and technology element form an effective partnership your business will be able to digitally grow and achieve.  We haven’t yet understood how to process digital information. We can see emails, text messages, Facebook as potentially threatening and experience the heightened emotional and psychological responses associated with being under attack.  If you change your mindset and remove that risk from yourself, you can work in a different way.  In dynamic evaluation the objective is to move and gather information in order to make a decision, decide at what point to make the decision and then act on the decision.  Successful organisations have a concept of lessons learnt, and learning from those lessons, reviewing and asking what you would do differently is learning.  Evaluating dynamically before you act is relies on ongoing communication, gathering of information and constantly evaluating what is going on to enable you to move forward.  This model is one of shared responsibility everybody is seeking to identify the risks, and everyone is seeking opportunities to make a difference.  The ability of a leader to analyse what’s going develops individual resilience as within the process of questioning and moving forward you are also evaluating yourself and your capability.  Having a positive outlook is the way forward and there is no such thing as a negative experience only situations from which we can learn, getting to a position where you think of everything as an opportunity will change everything.    BEST MOMENTS  ‘There are opportunities in every situation the secret is going to find them’  ‘Thinking and documenting  your possible threat landscape and having a plan to respond builds your level of resilience’  ‘We don’t make wrong decisions as humans We do things because we believe they are the best thing to do at the time’  ‘You can think and run; you don’t have to stand still’  ‘The ability to buy time, gather information, make a plan and then execute it are vital elements’     VALUABLE RESOURCES   Xcina Ltd   Jason Dunlop LinkedIn        ABOUT THE HOST  Gavin Preston  Gavin is an inspirational Speaker, Business Strategist, Business Growth Mentor, Trainer and high-performance Coach.  He works with Business Owners and Entrepreneurs and has a strong track record in creating creative strategies to accelerate the growth of their business.

Tom Chandler is a Welsh actor from Penarth in South Wales. He currently plays Begbie in the Off-Broadway show, Trainspotting Live. The play is an adaptation of the 1993 book by Irvine Welsh about the struggles of a group heroin addicted friends living in Edinburgh, most widely known for the 1996 film of the same name. What makes Transporting Live so unique is its immersive nature. With no 'fourth wall' the actors are free to interact with the audience throughout the performance. The play initially came under mixed reviews with some lauding its ambition while others questioned its political correctness. In August, the play was extended until the end of October 2018, which is perhaps the best indication of its enduring success. In this episode, the boys meet Tom to discuss some of the challenges around performing in an immersive theatre production, acting in New York at the age of 21, and what it’s like to read reviews about yourself in the New York Times.

Ray was recorded at Estates of Memory, the London Festival of Architecture 2017, at St Marks Hall, London SE6
