Children in Need

Thank you parents for donating to Children in Need. Wearing our pajamas to school day raised over £250 Well done!!

Miss Lewis

WOW, WOW, WOW! That's all I can say. Our class assembly was today and it was fantastic. The children wrote it all themselves and I was proud of every one of them. I learnt a lot about the olympics and paralympics myself. It was great to see so many parents showing their support too.

WELL DONE CLASS 7. I AM ONE VERY HAPPY TEACHER.

Miss Lewis

Back to school, and loving it!!

Class 7 (year 6) all wrote speeches to persuade their classmates to vote for them for Head boy or Head girl. Mr Gough came across to listen and was very impressed at how confident all the children were. Each member of the class had 2 votes and  (drum roll please) it was decided that ...

Head boy - Meici Jones
Deputy Head boy - Josh Davies
Head girl - Nikhil Powell
Deputy Head girl - Rhiannon Gwilym

All the children are fantastic but I think the children have made a great choice and I know that these four will do an awesome job! 

This year will be amazing!!

Miss Lewis

Happy Holidays

Hope you are all enjoying your holidays!

Miss Lewis

A message from class 6! ...

Last night I took 24 children to St Davids Hall to perform in the Gwent Mucic Showcase, they are a credit to the school. Not only were they fantastically behaved but the performance was great. 
I would like to say thank you for the amount of parent support. Thank you for coming to support your child and our school.

Around the world in 8 classes!

Last week was so busy in the nursery! We went to a special assembly and the Olympic torch was there. When we went back to class Sam came around with the torch and everyone was able to hold it and have their picture taken with it. It was really exciting. Then Sam came back around with the Triple Crown and The 6 Nations trophies. They were really heavy!

In the afternoon we had our own Olympics. Everyone moved around the classes to practise different sports. In the nursery, Miss Rutter told the children all about Canada and about lacrosse. Lacrosse is a contact sport so we made up our own gentler version for the children to play! It was lots of fun.

Mrs Curtis

We had a great day in school today. Sam Weed who is from Tredegar and was lucky enough to get chosen to carry the Olympic Torch came to school with the Olympic Torch and the children had a chance to hold it. He told them about his experience.

We also had the 6 nations trophy and the triple crown in school for all children to see. 

In the afternoon we had Olympic taster sessions where each class showed the other children how to play a new sport. Our country was Japan and our children did Sumo Wrestling. It was great.

I have added pictures below. 

The Olympics

Class 1 had a fab day today. The olympic torch came to our school and we all had our photos taken holding it! The Six nations trophies also came and we had photos taken with them. What an exciting day. We had a mini olympics this afternoon and each class had to choose a country and a sport. Our class chose Russia and we chose ice hockey for our sport. We all had a go with an ice hockey stick shooting a puck into goals.We visited other classes and experienced different cultures and sports. A fun day had by all.
Mrs Greenslade

Well what a busy week. 

Music Idols our school singing talent show was amazing. The children were all fantastic and the talent just keeps getting better! Thank you parents for costumes and for supporting us by watching. Thanks to Karen Jones and  everyone else who made it possible. Mostly a great WELL DONE to all the acts. Two great nights!!

The y6 went to the comp on Wednesday to take part in a gym display organised by Tredegar Comp PE department. Our y6 performed their routine perfectly in front of children and staff from all Tredegar schools, and it was great to watch. Some children even had a go at doing front flips off a trampette too! 

The Y6 Can Sing concert took place at Tredegar Comp tonight. Year 6 children from each Tredegar primary school took part. Our children sang Oh Happy Day and although there was a mix up with the music that didn't stop them being AMAZING! Well done to all those y6 children who took part.

Miss Lewis

Back to school! Yippee!

Year 4, 5 and 6 had the chance to design a non-smoking poster to promote Non-smoking. Neville Hall Hospital now have a non-smoking policy and anybody who wishes to smoke has to go off the premises. I didn't have many entries in but I sent off the ones I did have and Rhiannon Gwilym in my class won the competition. Her poster can now be seen in Neville Hall Hospital so keep an eye out for it!!

Well done Rhiannon!!
