October Half-Term

Kids' Club are hoping to open during October half-term; this will be dependant upon to demand. To avoid disappointment, please let Kids' Club know asap if you would like to reserve a spot. Diolch.

Uniform

Thank you so much for supporting the school with the uniform policy introduced by the Governors last year. It really does have such a positive impact on many aspects of school life.

We have had a few unlabelled new jumpers, cardigans and quarter zips already in the first 1.5 weeks of school, so please do ensure all items are labelled. Diolch.

There are items of pre-loved uniform by the main entrance of the school, if anyone needs any spare items.
