The Trim Trail is completed

Work was completed on the "Trim Trail" comissioned by the Play Leaders for the yard. The workmen Steve and Stuart dug the footings in the quiet yard and set the logs into holes and filled them with post screed. The play leaders will organise activities in the yard in the new term.

Developments in the playground

Workmen lay the foundations for our new adventure playground

The play leaders and school council have worked together this year to organise and raise funds for developing the school yard. This week we have arranged for work to be completed to paint the yard and errect an adventure playground for the large yard. This structure has been purchased from funds raised by the pupils who have organised our drink drop initiative, the fruit tuck shop and Enterprise week. By employing a reputable construction company the play leaders have become aware of health and safety regulations and our new Year 6 play leaders will organise activities for our pupils to play safely at lunchtimes and playtimes. They have also purchased Basketball posts to be placed in the newly painted basketball court in the ball play area. Llongyfarchiadau bawb.

The new five-a-side and netball basketball court have been painted on they yard.



The balance beam leads on to some stepping logs.

then across to a log walk and finally a suspended walk on a wire.

Posting pupil images on social networking sites.

Please can I remind parents that posting images of pupils on social networking sites is prohibited and contravenes our school policy. Parents do not have permission from parents to use images and therefore are acting illegally. I will be grateful if any images taken by parents during the Sound of Music productions this week are removed immediately. Failure to do this will result in parents being reported to Facebook and possible action taken under Child protection procedures. I hope that we can rely upon your cooperation to avoid this. An official video and photographs taken by Mrs Amanda Smith on behalf of the school will be available in September.
