Dear parent/ carer,
I cannot believe that we have just 3 weeks left of this busy summer term. There are many events going on over the next few weeks so please keep checking the school website, class dojo and twitter @treuchafprimary to keep up to date on any last minute changes. It is lovely to hear the children singing and getting ready for the Foundation Phase Summer singalong and the KS2 concert. This year there will be two tickets available per family for each show. These will be available from your child’s class teacher from next week and will cost £2 per ticket. Please send in payment in an envelope with your child’s name.
Yesterday, Mrs Alison Williams our school improvement advisor visited school and listened to learners, looked at the children’s books, displays and the whole school provision. Your children spoke about our school with confidence, enthusiasm and warmth. They are a credit to you and you should be very proud of them.
On Monday and Tuesday next week, Year 6 will have their taster days at their chosen comprehensive school. For those children attending Penyrheol, they will need to wear their school uniform on Monday and their school PE kit on Tuesday with their school hoodie. On Tuesday morning the children from morning nursery up to Year 5, will spend time with their new class teacher. The children and staff are quite excited!
From Friday 8th July, after-school clubs will stop for Summer term. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the staff who have given up their time to run a wonderful range of after school activities that have enriched our learning provision. We’ve had basketball, makaton, active citizens and cycling to name a few. Clubs will be back in Autumn Term so watch this space.
Our Busy Bee after-school club (paid) will be starting in September for a trial period of one month in the first instance. A booking in link will be sent to you before the end of term to give us an idea of numbers. The sessions will need to be paid for in advance. More information to follow.
Please check your SQUID account and make sure your child has enough credit for school dinners for the time left in school. Parents cannot go into arrears so please can you check every Sunday to ensure there is enough money for the week ahead. Please provide a packed lunch if required.
Calon ADHD is a project group that provide free afterschool activities for children in our local area. They arrange activities such as basketball, boxing, football and scooter sessions. For more information, please contact calonadhdproject@gmail.com
Please remember my door is always open to you if I can help in any way. Pop in to see me before or after school or ring Mrs Seager in the office to make an appointment. I hope you all have a lovely weekend!
Mrs L Davies
