Running Club

Well done to Bradley and Bailey for completing 10 miles, Cameron, Jake and Izzy for completing 20 miles and Rhys for completing 40 miles. Da iawn.

Engineer Project

Well done to the pupils who went to the awards ceremony in Cardiff on Monday.

From the 20 awards presented, pupils from Forden School received 9 of them, winners and highly commended.

Out of all the entries from Wales, the judges chose their overall favourite to win the Judges' Award. This went to Bailey in Year 5 for his Scanner Scanner. This is a device that fits each side of your door and, as you leave the house, it checks you have everything you need. Items can be fitted with a chip so the scanner picks it up and you can programme the scanner with which items you need each day. Da iawn Bailey.

Photographs taken at the event will be shared on the school FB page once they have been posted by the organisers.
Welshpool High School Concert

We have been invited to sing at the high school concert on Tuesday 9th July in the evening. We will be performing one of the songs from our Whispering Woods performance. This is open to all pupils. If your child would like to take part, please see Mrs Haine. At present we only have 6 names.

Redridge

Pupils from 3, 4 and 5 had a fantastic day at Redridge Activity Centre. They challenged themselves, encouraged each other and worked together as a team.

Parent Governor Vacancies

Two of our current parent governors have opted to take up the community governor roles. This leaves two vacancies for parent governors. Please see the letter and nomination form sent out with this newsletter.
