Caffi Cymraeg

Parents were invited into school to celebrate the Welsh language as part of our Caffi Cymraeg. The children played games with their parents, read Welsh stories, and completed various activities, teaching their parents the Welsh sentence patterns that they had been practicing. 

Children In Need

The children wore their pyjamas to school and joined in with lots of Pudsey Bear activities, including making Pudsey badges and masks. This year Cwmlai helped to raise £720 for Children in Need.

Multicultural Week - France.

As part of our multicultural week we looked at different landmarks in France, and we made croque monsieur, which was very tasty! We practiced greeting each other in French, learnt the colours, numbers and how to say j'mapelle...

Remembrance Day

After talking about why we wear poppies and what they represent the children created their own poppy artwork.

Odd Socks Day

To support Anti Bullying Week on 14th November the children wore odd socks to school. The children talked about the qualities of a good friend. They discussed different scenarios involving bullying and talked about how they would have reacted and what could have happened differently. The children talked about who they could 'Reach Out' to for help in each scenario.
