Nursery News
We’ve had such a fun time splashing and soaking each other in our water activities day! We played lots of games and enjoyed shooting water at each other with our water guns.
We have read some more books on Journeys. We read ‘Rosie’s Walk’ and used words such as ‘past’, ‘through’, ‘under’ and ‘over’. We joined in with the story and did the actions while moving like a hen.
After reading ‘Whatever Next’ we used recycling to create our own rockets like Baby Bear did. We used lots and lots of Sellotape to stick the boxes and plastic together!!!
This week we also read ‘The Scarecrow’s Wedding’. We made our own split pin scarecrows, played with the puppets and the masks and sang ‘Dingle Dangle Scarecrow’.
Thank you all so much for your support this year! We hope your children have enjoyed their time in Nursery! Have a brilliant Summer holiday and we’ll see you all in September!

Reception & Year 1 End-of-Year News
Dear Parents and Carers,
As we reach the end of a wonderful school year, I want to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you. It has been an absolute joy to teach your children—they’ve grown so much, worked incredibly hard, and made us all proud!
I hope you all enjoy a restful and fun-filled summer break. Here’s a quick look at what we’ve been up to in our final weeks:
Literacy
We’ve completed our final phonics assessments, and your child will be bringing home their results. This will help you see which sounds to focus on over the holidays. The progress they’ve made is truly fantastic—well done, everyone!
Numeracy
The last two weeks, we’ve been revisiting place value to strengthen our understanding of how numbers work. The children have shown great confidence in recognising and writing numbers accurately.
Topic: Journeys
Our concept this term has been Journeys. As we wrap up our own journey in Class 1, the children have been reflecting on their favourite memories and setting goals for what they’d like to achieve in Class 2. It’s been a lovely way to celebrate their growth.
Reading & Library Books
Please return any school reading or library books by Friday so we can get everything ready for the new school year.
Thank you once again for your continued support throughout the year. I’m incredibly proud of each and every child and all they’ve accomplished.
Wishing you a safe, sunny, and happy summer!
Warm regards,
Miss Glennon
Class 2 News
Class 2 have had a busy and productive fortnight!
We’ve been sharpening our times tables skills through oral practice and using TT Blast, helping us build speed and confidence. In maths, we’ve explored how different symbols affect the meaning of sums, deepening our understanding of operations.
In our environmental studies, we created informative posters to raise awareness about the impact of single-use and multi-use plastics on beaches and marine life. The creativity and thoughtfulness in these designs were impressive!
During P.E., we’ve been developing our coordination by practising throwing and catching skills—lots of fun and great teamwork all around!
Kind regards
Rachel Bevan
Class 3 News
This last fortnight we have enjoyed playing games with our friends, like Pool, Table Tennis, Chess, Cards, Checkers, Skull Island, Happy Feet and Guess Who.
Our favourite thing was Ninja Warriors and going on the bouncy castle, obstacle courses and high ramps, as well as having pizza and chips together.
We really enjoyed going to the Multisport Festival in Llangatwg and playing dodgeball, sitting-down volleyball, walking football, chicken, hero, partner in crime, athletics, Seaweed, Kings & Queens and Medics.
We loved watching our Year 6 leavers assembly and wish them all the very best.
We would like to thank our PTA for putting on such an excellent fête. We loved the face-painting, tattoos, toy stalls, candy floss, rock painting, bouncy castle, slushies, cake stall, surprise box, popcorn, hook-a-duck, axe throwing, swords, balloons and tin throwing game.
In Welsh we have enjoyed our Drilio games and getting our names on the leaderboard.
Have a fabulous Summer and stay safe!
Mrs Davies.
Class 4 News
Dear Parents and Guardians,
In our last class newsletter of the year, we focus on our Year 6 leavers. We are thrilled that our recent leavers assembly, was a resounding success! We were incredibly proud of their performances, as the pupils showcased their talents with wonderful displays of hard work and dedication. To see so many emotional parents and pupils showed how much it meant to them.
A huge thank you to Year 6 for their enthusiasm and spirit throughout this process. Your commitment made the assembly a memorable occasion for everyone involved. I would also like to thank all the staff who supported the concert, especially Mrs Marston Jones and Mrs Williams for their invaluable help with the music and dance moves.
Additionally, the pupils had a fantastic time during the water fight today, enjoying every moment of fun! They especially loved soaking the teachers!
I would also like to extend a big thank you for the thoughtful gifts. I have truly enjoyed teaching Class 4 this year. They deserve a good break, and I look forward to the next academic year with excitement.
As we close on another academic year, we wish Year 6 all the best in their future endeavours. We have no doubt that they will continue to shine brightly in whatever they pursue.
To Year 5, we are excited to see you grow and become leaders in our school in the coming year!
Thank you for your continued support. Have a fantastic summer!
P.S. Our last walk to school will leave from the rugby club tomorrow morning. Please can pupils arrive for 8:30 so we have plenty of time for photos before they take their final walk to Creunant Primary School.
Warm regards,
Mr Allen
