Parentmail 12.7.24

Dear Parents/Carers,

It’s hard to believe that this will be the last Parentmail of the 2023-24 school year (next week’s newsletter will be a Dragonflyer).  Just one week left to go in a busy and wonderful year!

A big thank you to Year 6 parents and carers who joined us to enjoy Year 6 performing The Lion King this week.  There were tears, laughter and lots of applause and cheering.  Thank you to Year 6 pupils, staff and parents/carers for your support and help with the show.  A video recording was made of the performance and will be made available to families shortly.

Well done to our girls’ football team who played three Howells teams this week, losing one match and winning two!  Well done to them!  Thank you also to the netball coaches who invited parents/carers in to play against their children and gave awards to the Year 6 leavers today – a lovely final session in a successful year.

PTA news

The total made at the Summer Fair was £1.847.38!!!!!

A huge thank you to everyone that helped set up/manage a stall, make, paint, mend things, tidy away, and everything in between, and of course all who attended the Fair and spent their money.  These events are only possible with the help of everyone involved, and seeing how much the children enjoyed it, it was totally worth it.

Thank you everyone,

PTA

Wednesday 17th July

A reminder that pupils are welcome to wear yellow or bright colours to school on Wednesday 17th as this is the day of the official opening of Ty Bronwen, our Wellbeing Pod - Bronwen’s Wish T-shirts in children’s sizes are available in school at a cost of £8 each.  Please can children see Mrs Ullah on Monday or Tuesday if they wish to buy a T-shirt.  Thank you.

Wishing you all a pleasant weekend.

Best wishes,

Rachel Mitchell, Headteacher
