Annwyl Rhieni a Gofalwyr,
We hope all our families enjoyed a wonderful Easter break filled with sunshine, rest, and plenty of chocolate eggs! As we return to school, we are excited to step into the summer term—always one of the most vibrant, energetic, and memorable parts of the school year.
This term brings longer days, warmer weather (fingers crossed!), and lots of opportunities for outdoor learning, new experiences, and celebrating the progress the children have made so far. It’s a time when we see pupils grow in confidence, independence, and curiosity as they prepare for the next stage of their journey.
We’re very excited to share that some of the Caffi Cynefin profits have been invested in brandβnew furniture! We can’t wait to welcome you in and invite you to come and test it out for yourself. A huge thank you to our wonderful volunteers who kindly gave their time to help put everything together, we couldn’t have done it without you.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support. We can’t wait to see what this summer term brings, and we’re excited to make it a happy, productive, and inspiring time for all our pupils.
Here’s to a brilliant term ahead! π

Thank you for your continued support!

We wanted to share information about a brilliant local service that may help families during school holiday periods. The North Gower Food Hub offers up to 12 weeks of food support for households across most of the Gower. There’s no need for vouchers or social services referrals, and the team works with complete confidentiality.
Support is delivered directly to your home every Friday, or to school during term time if that’s easier for you.
If you feel your family could benefit from a little extra help, you can get in touch with the Food Hub here:
Schools can also make a referral on your behalf (with your permission).
A small reminder: this service covers most of the Gower, except Gorseinon, Gowerton, Killay, West Cross and Mumbles, as these areas have their own food banks.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out—support is there if you need it.
