Friends of Deiniol 2024 Challenge - The Friends of Deiniol laid down a challenge four weeks ago asking our pupils to challenge themselves and raise some much needed sponsor money for our school. Many of our children went above and beyond and we managed to raise a fantastic.....£1,016!! All money raised will be split amongst the classes as well as extra prizes going to individual children who raised the most money - that money will follow them into their new classes. A special well done must go to Ethan and Callum who raised over £400 between them washing trucks and vans whilst dressed as Super Mario Brothers! Da iawn boys!
Schools Essential Grant - The School Essentials Grant opened on 1 July. Children whose families are on lower incomes and qualify for certain benefits can apply for a grant of: £125 per learner £200 for learners entering year 7 (to help with increased costs associated with starting secondary school). All pupils from Reception to Year 6 are eligible to apply. Families are only entitled to claim once per child, per school year. By applying for this grant you are also helping our school as we get extra funding for every child who is accepted. So, I’d be very grateful if you could spread the word by sharing https://www.gov.wales/get-help-school-costs. Even if families don’t need the grant, registering as eligible will mean our school will still get additional funding.
Recycled Clothes - Please keep bagging up and sending in any unwanted clothes to the school. It's really easy money for the Friends of Deiniol which is then sent back into school to help our children.
