Wishing Everyone a Lovely Half Term Break
Fri 21 Feb 2025Morning all,
I hope the children have a lovely half term break. As usual dojo won’t be monitored by any staff after 3.30 today until we start back on Monday March 3rd.
Just some reminders for you for the first week back after half term:
Thursday is World Book Day. The children can dress as a character from a book if they’d like to. All children should bring in their favourite book from home.
Friday is Eisteddfod so all children should wear the colours of Wales, their Welsh costume, club or sports kit.
Many thanks,
Mrs Beard-Robbins -

Incident Outside School Update
Tue 18 Feb 2025Afternoon all,
As per the previous post all staff and children are fine. The incident was only witnessed by Y5/6 pupils.
I was doing lunch yard duty today on Y5/6 yard when I heard a lot of swearing and shouting from across the road, a gentlemen then crossed the road towards the yard continued swearing and behaving in an intimidating way so I sent all of the children straight inside.
Unfortunately, some of the children heard some dreadful language/threats and some were a little frightened at being sent in so quickly with no explanation but I'm sure you will understand that your children's safety is my main priority.
Once the children were in we called 999 and police arrived and arrested the man.
I have since visited all Y5/6 classes and explained to them what happened and why I was shouting so loudly and firmly and reassured them about the events.
Again - thanks to my staff for their quick reactions in supporting me in dealing with the events. Y5/6 were superb and all did exactly as they were told straight away.
You might want to give your children chance to talk to you about it later and remind them how safe school is with our big fences, locked gates and all the adults here to keep them safe.
Kindest regards,
Mrs Beard-Robbins -

Meet Fluffy & Rainbow. Our Guinea pigs, kindly given to us by one of our lovely families.

Once they are settled and confident, children will have opportunities to meet them. Please let us know of any pet allergies.
Please be reassured that the guinea pigs will be well loved and cared for having appropriate rest and quiet times.

Goodbye to Baby / Toddler Group
Tue 11 Feb 2025Evening all,
I wanted to say a huge thank you to Jess and Robin who have been running our baby toddler group for a considerable time. Kate has helped too on many occasions. Sadly, due to low take up of late we won’t be continuing with the group.
We are hoping to run occasional baby/toddler sessions for special occasions like Easter, Christmas etc
A huge thank you to all of you ☺️☺️
