Dear Parents/Guardian,

We have now officially entered the busy season. I can hear the delightful sound of singing coming up the corridors, every page in the school diary looks full, with every hour accounted for and I’m pretty sure the staff coffee reserves are dwindling at an alarming speed.

Still, we have much to look forward to. As promised, below are the times for the events that are happening over the next few weeks. We will send out more info about the specifics of these closer to the day if required but the start times should stay the same.

  • 4th December- School Christmas Fair – Commences at 2.30pm for those that wish to arrive early, pupils to enter at end of school day through the front door after parent pick up.
  • 9th December – Year 1&2 Cinema treat – leaving just after 9am
  • 10th December – Year 3&4 Cinema treat – leaving just after 9am
  • 10th December – Year 3&4 Crafternoon for Parents – to commence in the hall at 1.45pm for a few songs then into class for craft
  • 13th December – Early Years Christmas Performance – to start at 10am
  • 13th December – Year 1&2 Performance – to start at 1.30pm
  • 13th December – Year 5&6 Cinema treat – leaving just after 9am
  • 16th December – Year 5 Evening Service at church – to start at 6pm (pupils to arrive at 5.30pm at school)
  • 18th December – Year 6 visit to Ysgol Bryn Alyn Christmas Concert – leaving just after 9am

Thank you

A huge thank you for all those that supported the school during the giveaway on Wednesday at 3.10pm. All your items and contributions were hugely appreciated.

Sad News

I am sorry to say that Mrs W Howe will be leaving her role as Nursery Teaching Assistant from Thursday 19th December. Mrs Howe has been with the school for many years and has become an integral part of what Nursery life has been in the past and is like today. I am sure you will join us in wishing her all the best for all her future endeavours moving forward. Please see below for a note from the trustees of Little Chicks..

...from Little Chicks

It is with great sadness that we share that Mrs Howe will be leaving Little Chicks at the end of this term. She has been the driving force behind Little Chicks for many years and we thank her for her dedication and commitment to the role.

Just to reassure you, we have now started the process of looking for someone new to join our friendly team and we are currently advertising for a new Lead Supervisor to start in January.

Have a lovely weekend,
