Dear Parent/Carer,
We’re so excited to welcome the children back to school tomorrow as we begin the summer term! With the warmer weather on the way, we’ll be encouraging the children to wear sun hats, bring water bottles, and come to school wearing sun cream. Some children who like to wear summer dresses also choose to wear shorts underneath for added comfort – feel free to do whatever works best for your child!
What’s Coming Up This Term
- Appointment times for parent-teacher meetings will be sent out via Schoop later this week – keep an eye out!
- Sports Clubs begin this Tuesday! There’s still time to sign up via Schoop if you haven’t already.
- After-school pupil groups will continue as normal on Thursdays.
- We’ve added lots of exciting new dates to the school calendar – including Sports Day! You can find all the updates on our school website.
- Friday 2nd May and Monday 2nd June are INSET days, where staff will be revisiting Read Write Inc. training.
- The PTA will be holding a Summer Fête on Friday 11th July – more information to follow!
- Our wellbeing dog, Teddy, will continue his visits every other Wednesday.
- On Monday 30th June at 3:20, Helen Harris will be hosting an information sharing session for parents on Read, Write, Inc. This is a great opportunity for parents of pupils from Nursery, to Year 4 to learn more about how pupils learn to read, write and spell. Child care will be provided for pupils during the session. More information will follow nearer the event.
Transition Meetings
This term we’ll also begin our transition activities:
- A meeting for Nursery parents whose children are moving up to full-time school in September (date to follow soon).
- A session for Year 6 parents whose children will be heading to Llangatwg Community School on 12th May in the afternoon (exact time to follow).
- Transition mornings for all pupils throughout the second half of the summer term, will give pupils the opportunity to spend time in their new classes with their new teachers.
Get Involved: Gardening with Gemma
We’re also excited to offer some lovely gardening sessions this term with our Family Engagement Officer, Gemma Addis-Fuller – a great way to get involved and enjoy the outdoors!
We’re looking forward to a fantastic term filled with sunshine, celebration, and new beginnings!
Warm wishes,
Mrs. M. Teague
