Week 31 - Friday 21st May 2021

Welcome

We've had another busy week in school. Next week is our last week before the half term holiday - half term is Monday 31st May to Friday 4th June. Don't forget we have an inset day on Monday 7th June.

Our website calendar has been updated with details of all the school holiday dates up to July 2023.

Criw Cymraeg

Today we held a whole school assembly virtually to relaunch our Criw Cymraeg. During the assembly each class informed the school what they have been learning in welsh recently. It sounds like our children have been learning lots of different welsh words and phrases throughout this week. Why not ask your child to say something in welsh to you over the weekend!

After School Club

After school club bookings for the period after half term have now been processed. If you have applied for a place please check your emails.

Parent Homework Survey

Thank you to all the parents who completed the Homework Survey recently. We received some fantastic feedback which we will discuss as part of our review process. Any changes to the Homework Survey will be communicated with parents.

Barney

Barney has been showing off his new harness this week in school, he loves that the harness says where he belongs!

School Savings Club

School savings club took place again this week and we had lots of children saving money. Saving Club runs every Wednesday. If you would like to join please take a look at our website for more details. School Savings Club Information.
