Sports Day

All pupils took part in our sports days this week and demonstrated perseverance and sportsmanship- da iawn. We have some very talented athletes in school. Well done to Tîm Coch who were the overall winners.

Visit by Russell George MS

Following their class topic on Decisions and Democracy at the beginning of the term, pupils in Ysgawen wrote to their Senedd members about issues that were important to them. Russell George MS came to visit school to answer their questions about life as a politician in Wales.

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.

Hats and Sunscreen

Please ensure your child has a hat in school, clearly marked with their name. If possible, please apply any sunscreen before school. If your child brings sunscreen to school, they will need to apply it themselves (younger children will be supervised).

School Website

Remember to visit the school website - The Year in Pictures - to find out what we have been learning about in school.

More pictures from this year will be added soon.

Governor Vacancies

We have two vacancies on our governing body for Community Governors. These can be any member of the community and do not need to have a connection to the school.
