Dear Parents and Carers / Annwyl Rieni a Gwarchodwyr,

What a fantastic and action-packed week we’ve had at school! The children showed great enthusiasm and energy as they took part in a range of exciting activities. We celebrated Sports Day with brilliant displays of teamwork and determination. Our Yr. 2 school trip was a huge success, giving pupils the chance to explore and learn beyond the classroom. During Moving-Up Day, children met their new teachers and began preparing for the next step in their learning journey. To top it all off, the Jambori filled the school with music, laughter, and a wonderful celebration of Welsh culture.
Thank you for your continued support in making these experiences so special for our pupils. Read on for more highlights and important updates.

Ninja Tag
On Wednesday, our adventurous Year 2 pupils laced up their trainers and headed off for an action-packed trip to Ninja Tag — and what a fantastic time they had!
From the moment they arrived, the children were buzzing with excitement. They tackled obstacle courses, zipped through tunnels, and bounced their way through the inflatable challenges with energy and enthusiasm. It was wonderful to see their teamwork, determination, and big smiles as they navigated the course — cheering each other on every step of the way!
The trip wasn’t just about fun (though there was plenty of that!) — it also helped build confidence, resilience, and cooperation. A huge thank you to the staff who supported the trip and to the Ninja Tag team for making it such a memorable experience.
Well done, Year 2 — you were absolute stars!

Beach Tag-Rugby
Yesterday, pupils from Years 4, 5 and 6 had an unforgettable day at the Beach Tag-Rugby Festival in Colwyn Bay — and what a brilliant day it was!
With the sun shining and spirits high, our teams took to the sand with energy, enthusiasm, and fantastic teamwork. The festival was a celebration of sport, friendship, and fun, with pupils showing off their agility, speed, and sportsmanship in every match.
It was wonderful to see so many smiles, high-fives, and supportive cheers throughout the day. Whether they were scoring tries or cheering from the sidelines, every pupil played their part in making the event a huge success. A big thank you to the organisers, staff, and families who supported the trip — and of course, to our amazing pupils who represented the school so brilliantly. Da iawn pawb!

Sports Day
Tuesday saw a double dose of sporting excitement as both our Infant and Junior Sports Days took place under ideal weather conditions and with plenty of cheering from the sidelines!
Our Infant pupils kicked off the day with a fantastic display of energy, enthusiasm, and determination. From sprint races to sack racing, every child gave it their all. A special mention must go to the now legendary parents’ egg and spoon race, where balance was questionable, competitiveness was high, and a few thumbs may have made their way to the top of more than on egg!
In the afternoon, it was the turn of our Juniors, who wowed us with their speed, teamwork, and sportsmanship. The highlight? Without a doubt, the parents’ beanbag-on-the-head race, which featured some very creative balancing techniques and creative use of hair clips — all in good fun, of course!
A huge thank you to all the staff, families, and pupils who made the day such a success. The laughter, encouragement, and community spirit were a joy to see. Well done to everyone who took part — you were all champions!

Moving-Up Day
Today, our school was buzzing with excitement as pupils from Nursery to Year 5 took part in Moving Up Day! It was a wonderful opportunity for the children to spend time in their new classrooms, meet their new teachers, and get a taste of what’s to come in September. There were smiles, a few butterflies, and lots of excitement as everyone began looking ahead to the next step in their school journey.
At the same time, we waved a proud (and slightly emotional!) goodbye to our Year 6 pupils, who spent the day at Ysgol Brynhyfryd for their transition visit. We know they will have represented our school brilliantly and we’re confident they’ll continue to shine as they take on this exciting new chapter.
We wish them all the very best as they prepare for high school — we’re so proud of everything they’ve achieved and know they’ll do amazing things!

Einstein, one of the most influential physicists of all time, was not only known for his scientific genius but also for his deep reflections on life, learning, and human nature. His words remind us that adaptability is a strength — and that embracing change is a sign of growth, not weakness.
