Road Safety Reminder

• Please DO NOT stop in the middle of the road to drop your child off in the mornings or pick them up at the end of the day.
• Please DO NOT pull on to the pavement or stop on the corners or zig zag lines.
• PLEASE find a safe space to park, and walk with your child to school (if they are in Oxwich they can walk by themselves)

We are aware that parking is an issue for parents and staff, but we need to ensure the safety of all road users and pedestrians. Your cooperation will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

PTA News

A huge thank you to everyone who attended our Spooktacular disco! You helped raise just over £500 for our school. Thank you so much to all of those who helped us make the event a huge success, without you there would be no disco.

We know we’re not technically in the season just yet….but we’re trying to get organised for our annual Christmas raffle! This raffle is run to raise much needed funds for the school and will be spent on vital school resources and equipment.  

We’re making a call for prize donations and would love to know if any local businesses would consider donating a prize, that could take the form of a physical item or a gift voucher. Our last Christmas raffle raised an amazing £1,000 and we’d love to match that this year! Could you help us reach that goal? 

Please let us know by emailing friendsofbrynmill@gmail.com if you can donate a prize. We would be incredibly grateful and will ensure to circulate prize details via our social media channels and via the school comms channels. Thank you so much!
