We are asking for your support with school attendance at the moment. We have to report our figures to Welsh government again following COVID, as there is no longer any requirement to isolate unless you have symptoms.
If your child is ill, please could we ask, that if giving them some medicine at lunch and in the morning allows them to attend, that they attend school.
So much education has been missed due to the pandemic that we need your help to ensure these pupils leave primary school literate and numerate. Currently attendance for Reception and Y3 is dramatically lower than average for Wales, under 80%. For all other classes we are not achieving over 88% every week. Primary schools are expected to have an attendance level of at least 94%.
As previously, we will require medical evidence for any appointments or sickness and explanations for lateness, as this too brings attendance levels down.
These are exciting times where we are able to be really creative with our curriculum as you can see by some of the animals in school this week. Please ensure your child experiences this by being in school. These are memories that they will cherish forever and time they will not get back.
Many thanks
Your children have chosen the foods that they think are healthy to eat at snack time.
Please could you help us by ensuring that he or she brings in a healthy snack:
baby bell cheese, yoghurt, fruit , vegetables, cereal bar and fruit in packets are some of their ideas.
Thank you
Due to the high temperatures this week and various activities going on inside and outside school , it is more important than ever that the children come to school with hats, sunglasses and sun-cream. They also need to bring water bottles that they can refill.
Please note reports will come home on Thursday this week with your child. School finishes at normal time on Friday. We return to school Monday 5th September.
Many thanks

Please note that we understand if your child is walking home alone they will need access to a mobile phone, for their safety. However, our policy is that when they arrive at school that phone is handed in to reception and locked away. On several occasions recently pupils have not done this and phones have been found on their person or in their bags.
We accept no liability for phones being lost or damaged. Please could we ask for your support in ensuring they understand their responsibilities regarding bringing a phone.
many thanks
