Paired reading

We joined the Year 3 children, who kindly shared a story with us. It was a wonderful experience as we asked and answered lots of questions, making the story even more engaging and interactive.

Author Visit

We were fortunate to receive a visit from local author Megan Mattravers, who shared one of her wonderful stories with us. We had the opportunity to ask plenty of questions about life as an author, inspiring us to become confident readers and writers.

School Eisteddfod 2025

We had a wonderful afternoon celebrating our school Eisteddfod. The children performed recitals, showcased their artwork inspired by Jodie Neale, and presented their Welsh home projects.

Comic Releif

This year, to mark Comic Relief, the children were invited to express their individuality and happiness by wearing something that makes them happy. From colourful costumes and cozy pyjamas to superhero capes and favourite footballers, the day was filled with smiles. It was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate self-expression and positivity while supporting a great cause.

Ethical Efan

The children were just like Ethical Efan. Confident and proud of their Welsh identity, yet equally aware of their place as global citizens. Like Ethical Efan, they demonstrated a strong sense of belonging, rooted in their culture and community, while also showing curiosity and knowledge about the wider world around them, celebrating their heritage.

Easter Bonnet Parade

As creative Cariads, we created our very own Easter bonnets at home. With big smiles and even bigger hats, we proudly paraded around the school, showing off our unique creations to friends and teachers. The fun didn’t stop there, back in the classroom, we took part in an exciting Easter hunt, searching high and low for hidden treasures. We also enjoyed melting chocolate and making delicious easter nests.

Creative Cariad

We are often creative cariad's thinking creatively, helping each other and working as a team. In our enhanced areas we explore the resources in the construction area working together to create new worlds.
