Good Luck Mrs Roberts

And Happy Retirement! Please do come back and see us when you can!

We are so proud of how all the children have embraced our new 'House' and behaviour systems. They have all done so well!

A total of just over 22,000 tokens were earned this year through our Eisteddfod and Sports Day events, but mostly though children being noticed making the right decisions by being READY, RESPECTFUL and SAFE, by going going over and above and/or by being resilient and showing a 'growth mindset'. Da iawn pawb!

Our Eisteddfod winners 2025 were TEGID!
Our Sports Day winners 2025 were ALWEN!

And our overall House winners 2025 were...

BRENIG!
