Another week has flown by, taking the TYF schools climbing in an on form Pembrokeshire Coast National Park! The busiest week of the year so far, I was glad to just have to take the TYF schools climbing, and not worry about logistics!
We started the week at Porth Clais, enjoying some warm weather and sun. The group started the day bouldering and exploring the area, learning some skills for the climbs on Grey Wall. When we headed to the roped climbing, the kids proved brilliant climbers, with some of them climbing most of the routes on the crag!

Tuesday saw a damp start to the day, but we trusted the weather to clear, and headed out to St David’s Head for the day. Having a plan B of some Mountaineering over Carn Llidi we started the day with some abseiling, the TYF schools kids weathering the storm in a group shelter whilst they waited patiently, super enthusiasm, their spirits were high! Our gamble paid off and the weather turned superb, warm, sunny and the rock out there dries so quickly we were able to fit loads of climbing in…

Another day another walk out to St Davids Head, a stunning day, with a cool breeze to increase comfort levels.. the abseiling and climbing was awesome and to make the day even more special for the TYF schools kids, the Dolphins came out to say hello! Always love the look on their faces when they see the amazing wildlife out there!

Our last day out on the Head saw us on a sun drenched South side, out the wind and by the water – my favourite placed to be! It wrapped up an awesome week with great kids, they really challenged themselves, and were so supportive of each other. A pleasure to work with the TYF schools as usual!
