Hwb project Icelandic Chant

Supporting Wales in Euro 2016

Pupils in Year 6 are participating in a Euro 2016 project with schools in Cardiff researching aspects of cultural and sporting life of the countries participating in the championships in France. We will invite all pupils to wear read for Wales on THURSDAY 16th JUNE when Wales play England in Lens. There is no requirement for parents to purchase any Welsh merchandise specifically for this day as any red clothing will be acceptible. In addition, pupils can opt to wear school uniform as usual.

Gelli Playgroup Open Morning.

Meeting with the parents as part of the ESTYN inspection

As part of the ESTYN Inspection process there will be a PARENTS MEETING on MONDAY 14th MARCH in the School hall beginning at 3.30 p.m. Parents are invited to meet the inspectors and share information about the school. In order for as many parents to come as possible we are providing child care facilities at school during the meeting. Please contact your son or daughter's class teacher to arrange this.

Please do not send pupils in costume tomorrow.

We will be celebrating World Book Day with some activities in class. I have a number of staff out of class tomorrow on training and feel that postponing the costume wearing until the last week of term would give those staff and pupils a greater opportunity to enjoy the day together. Please do not send your child in costume tomorrow. We are planning activities for the last week of term with an Easter Bonnet Parade and the Come dressed as your favourite fictional character and other things. These will be posted on here and communicated by newsletter and our usual social media sites. Your co-operation will be gratefully appreciated.
