    Last Week's Winners "Year 4 with 98%" Amazing!!

     

    We are thrilled to announce some exciting changes as we streamline our blog to enhance communication with you! Under the dynamic leadership of Mrs Gosney, we are embracing a digital format that promises to make information more accessible while saving valuable writing and reading time. Our aim is to have everything at our fingertips, allowing us all to stay informed effortlessly.  Together, we are making significant strides to improve our systems across the school, and I hope you will find that our weekly blog reflects this commitment.

     

    We are excited to announce the continuing launch of our Llanrhidian Primary Success Trust! This trust aims to help us secure more funding for our school and combat the severe financial forecast that schools are currently facing. We want you to know that we are committed to being proactive and seeking out every possible avenue to support our children’s education.

     

    To make the most of this opportunity, we have created a dedicated page for the trust, featuring various fundraising options. One particular way you can help us is through the "Easy Fundraising Platform." This simple tool allows you to raise funds for our school without costing you a penny! Each time you make a purchase online—whether it's a small item from Amazon or planning a holiday—you can earn donations for our school just by accessing these stores through the Easy Fundraising site.  Setting it up takes only a few minutes, but the impact it can have on our school community is huge. We encourage you to consider using this platform to benefit our pupils and make a difference. Together, let’s secure a bright future for all our learners!

     

    There is so much happening at our school, and we want to ensure that you stay connected and informed. In this blog, you will find all the links to important events, readily available for your convenience. Additionally, you can visit our website’s Community Events Page, which will be your one-stop shop for everything happening in our vibrant school community.

     

    As we transition to this more efficient approach, we hope our website will become your go-to resource for all the information you need to participate in the fun with us. 

     

    Thank you once again for your incredible support and collaboration. Together, let's continue to build a strong community that thrives on enthusiasm and involvement!

     

    This Week's Standing Items!

     

     What's the buzz from the pupils this week? "Cwestiwn yr Wythnos!" We ask pupils a weekly question in order to understand the pupils' views of our school.  "If you could do anything for a day, what would you do?" 

    Pod Pengwin: "I would like to ride horses and ride my bike because I am very good at riding things!" 

    Pod Pysgodyn: "In school, I would run the caffi all day because I love it."

    Pod PryCop: "In school for a day, I would have relax and refuel until lunchtime and then we would have fish and chips. Then we would play football or dodgeball until home time!!"
