  Thu 11 Nov 2021

  Miss Clark’s class, Mr Regulski, Miss Lloyd and Mrs Seamons
  
  Morning all,
  
  Unfortunately I have just been notified overnight of a positive case of coronavirus in each of the 4 classes above.
  
  Please keep your children home if they are unwell. If your child develops any symptoms please take them for a PCR as soon as possible.
  
  Please remember the guidance is now isolation whilst you await results and also isolation for the rest of the household if there is a positive case in your family until you have a negative result.
  
  Thank you,
  Mrs Robbins

• PTA Film Night

  Wed 10 Nov 2021

  Morning all,
  
  Just a final reminder that it’s PTA film night tonight until 5pm for all children in reception and above.
  
  Children need to have returned their consent form if they’d like to stay.
  
  Don’t forget for juniors you can bring extra money to buy snacks and sweets.
  
  A plea from me - there’s lots of my staff and myself giving up our time tonight to run this alongside PTA as we were very short of volunteers, so please can you all be sure to be on time picking your children up at 5pm so we are all able to get home to our families too.
  
  We are looking forward to enjoying these films and some treats together.
  
  Many thanks,
  
  Mrs Robbins

• Design Your Very Own Snoopy

  Tue 09 Nov 2021

  Yesterday everyone took home a blank snoopy! This is a school competition to design their very own Snoopy and help raise lots of money for Dogs Trust.
  
  You must use colouring pens or pencils to create your masterpiece. Please do not use any other materials.
  You must create an original design. Please do not draw any characters that already exist, for example Marvel or Disney characters.
  
  The winning entry will have their design painted onto our huge Snoopy and we will be able to follow the dogs trail to find them somewhere in Caerphilly!
  
  After a while, our Snoopy will return to us and take pride of place at Cwmcarn Primary.
  
  We’re all very excited to receive your designs! Please ensure you return your finished design by December 10th.
  
  Keep an eye on Dojo and our school Twitter page to keep up to date!

• Change in Covid Isolation Rules

  Sat 30 Oct 2021

  Morning all,
  
  I hope you enjoy this last weekend of the half term. I’m sure you have seen the news regarding the change in isolation rules. I’ve posted an image which is really helpful if you are unsure.
  
  Unfortunately we have had a number of positive cases over half term including 4 staff some of whom are quite unwell. Class 5, Mrs Tomlins class will be closed to pupils next week as all the staff have Covid.
  
  Other than those with known medical conditions we will be sticking strictly to the rules and sending home any children who are sent to school unwell and who haven’t been taken for a PCR.
  
  Enjoy the weekend,
  
  Kindest regards,
  
  Mrs Robbins
