Collecting children at lunchtime – We know that making appointments such as medical or dental ones can be difficult to arrange out of school hours. 

If you do need to, please can you ensure that the school office is made aware of appointments ahead of time, as sometimes it can be challenging to ensure that pupils have finished lunch or are between lunch, the yard and the toilet etc. Thank you for your support with this.

Food Bank

This week we donated the tins from our Harvest festival to Pantygwydr Church for distribution to a local food bank. Pat the organiser was very grateful for the generous donation, and thanked staff and children for help carrying everything to her car.
