School Community Update

Thank you to everyone who has shown concern and support following Tuesday's medical incident.  We are pleased to share that the pupil is doing really well, has been discharged from hospital, and will be returning to school.

We would also like to remind everyone that this remains a private matter for the pupil and their family.  When the pupil returns to school, we ask that all pupils respect their privacy, avoid speculation or questions about the incident, and allow them to settle back into school life as normally as possible.

Thank you for your kindness, understanding and support.  We would also like to again thank the emergency services and our own staff for their care and professionalism throughout a highly charged situation.

Dwr y Felin

Dear Parent and Carer,

We have become aware that our cluster primary schools will be holding an INSET day on Friday 23rd October. While our INSET day was originally scheduled for Wednesday 21st October, we have decided to change the date so that it aligns with our cluster schools.

We appreciate that coordinating childcare and transport can be challenging for families, particularly where siblings attend different schools. By aligning our INSET days, we hope to make arrangements simpler, reduce inconvenience, and provide practical support to as many families as possible.

Amended Dwr y Felin INSET day = Friday October 23^rd 

We trust this change will be welcomed and thank you for your continued support.

School Account Arrears

Polite reminder to parents and carers:   Account balance notifications are sent out several times a week.  Should your account slip into arrears it is your responsibility to address this.  If the account is more than £20 in deficit, your child will not be able to access the canteen facilities until the debt is cleared.  They will also not be eligible for reward trips and events that carry a cost until the debt is cleared.

NB. Those eligible for free school meals are eligible for the equivalent of a set meal each day.  Anything over this must be purchased with funds on their account and is subject to the same debt terms as above.

If any of our families find themselves in difficulty, please do call the Head of Year for a confidential conversation where we would discuss a way forward together.
