School reopens for the Spring term 2012

School reopens for the Spring term for pupils on WEDNESDAY 4th January 2012. Breakfast Club will be open from 8.00 a.m. as usual. We hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas and that Santa brought you everything that was on the list. We now look forward to a busy term and getting back into the routine. There are many exciting activities to look forward to for the pupils to be engaged in. We look forward to welcoming everybody back.

School Council hold meeting in the Welsh Government Senedd Building

The School Council visited the Senedd in Cardiff Bay to hold a meeting in Siambr Hywel and to look at where the Assembly Members make decisions about things that happen in Welsh life. Here is a video diary about what happened during the day.

Thank you and a Happy Christmas to all at Gelli Primary School

May I on behalf of the governing body and staff offer our thanks for the cards and presents that we are given by the children each Christmas. We really appreciate the effort made to thank us each year. We hope that everyone will enjoy a peaceful Christmas and that Santa brings everything on your lists. As usual, the pupils have created a wonderful athmosphere in school and the concerts and other end of term activities have put us all in the festive spirit.

Please also join us in offering our prayers and condolences to the Davies family during this difficult time for them.

Over the next few days I will be updating the blog with videos of the Grandparents Concert and other activities that have been taking place during this busy term. I have a new piece of software that will allow us to transfer these to our blogs more effectively.

I will also use the text to parents service to remind parents of arrangements for returning to school in the new year.
