Parents’ Evening

We will be holding the first Parents’ Evenings of the year during the week beginning 21st October. Please contact your child's class teacher to book a slot.

PTA Meeting The next PTA Meeting will take place at 9.00am on Tuesday, 5th November 2019. Please join Mrs Evans if you are interested in helping to organise events for the Christmas period.

School Photographs

Colorfoto will be in school on Monday, 4th November 2019 (first day back after half term) for individual portrait photographs of the children. The school will send out a reminder text the day before!

Packed Lunch Children

Please be aware that pupils who bring a packed lunch to school, must also bring a drink with them. The school canteen can not supply pupils with drinks at lunch time. Diolch!

Water Bottles

Very soon, the pupils will be provided with a water bottle, complete with the school logo on! This has been made possible by the kind donations from Mr Akhtar of the local Costcutter shop and educational recruitment company - New Directions. A massive ‘thank you’ to both!

School Uniform

The children are still looking amazing - thank you for your support with this! Uniform is the most cost effective way of looking smart in school. Please check out the school website for info on the agreed uniform and stockists. If pupils forget to wear school uniform, spare jumpers will be offered to ensure they look part of the team.

Attendance Whilst we understand that children do become ill now and again, developing good habits at an early age is imperative - regular attendance at school is part of this. Governors have asked that the school keeps a close eye on attendance, and as a result, all pupils below 95% will be issued with NPT advisory letters. Pupils attending below 90% will be subject to Education Welfare Officer (EWO) referrals. Of course, school will celebrate high attenders in end-of-term assemblies and be rewarded for their efforts!
