We have received information that there has very recently been a stranger approaching children at the end of the school day around a secondary school in Caerphilly. The police are aware of this and are working with the school and wider community. We will be reminding children in Cwmcarn about stranger danger, and staying safe on the way home and in the community, but could you please follow this up with reminders at home.

Morning all,

A reminder that Y5/6 can ride scooters to school if they wish and store them at school.

At the moment if any other children ride scooters parents/carers have to take them back home.

As soon as we can we will look to buy more storage for scooters so more children can store them on site.

Many thanks for your understanding,

Mrs Beard-Robbins

Please find attached the extra curricular clubs for the coming term. Some of the clubs are likely to change after Christmas to try to appeal to as many children as possible. Letters for the clubs will be coming home over the coming days, please make sure you return them as quickly as possible in readiness for the clubs to start next.

Morning all,

Please don’t forget our meet the teacher sessions today for Y1-Y6. The first one will will be at 3.25 then this will be repeated at 3.45.

They will take place in your child’s classroom.

Many thanks,

Mrs Beard-Robbins

For the attention of Y6 Parents/Carers

Good morning,

Just a reminder that you need to apply for your place in Comprehensive as soon as possible. Applications are now open and close at the end of October but the sooner you apply the better.

We will send home a flyer with the children very soon but you can apply using:

www.caerphilly.gov.uk/schooladmissions

Please don’t put this off as every year we have one or two who forget and then their chosen school, usually Newbridge, is full.

We can help if you find it difficult to fill out forms.

Many thanks,

Mrs Beard-Robbins

Please read the attached letter from the Local Authority in regards to attendance

Unfortunately we are still without a lollipop lady and are uncertain as to when she will return.

The local authority advertised for a position after our previous lollipop lady left but unfortunately there were no applications. If you have any concerns regarding parking / crossing outside the school, please contact the local authority as the school has no control over the parking / crossing situation.

If you drive your children to / from school please be mindful of children crossing when nearing the school. If you have children in year 5 and 6 that walk to / from school on their own, please remind them to cross safely, not behind parked cars and to look both ways.

As soon as we have any further updates we will let you know.

Good morning all,

You can find a digital copy of this term's newsletters on our website, under Newsletter section.

We hope to send paper copies home as soon as possible, but there may be a delay as our photocopier is not happy!

The date to note firstly is next Monday's meet the teacher sessions which will run in all mainstream classrooms. The first will be 3.25pm and then a repeat at 3.45pm in case you have more than one child.

I know there are a few of you with more than two children so hopefully you can rope in a grandparent or another parent/carer to pass the info on to you.

If you are finding this difficult let us know and we can provide a paper or digital copy of any session you miss.

Many thanks,

Mrs Beard-Robbins

Good morning!

It’s back to school day! Just a little reminder that junior children come onto the yards on their own when the gates open at 8.50 and get ready to line up.

Our younger children should be taken to the classroom door by an adult.

If your child is in Y5 or Y6 and you want them to walk home you need to send a message to their teacher. They will not be allowed to do so until we have received a message.

Many thanks,

Mrs Beard-Robbins
