Sports Day dates can be found on the ‘important dates’ page below and also on Dojo. Children will need to come to school on Sports Day in their PE kit wearing their house colour. If you have any questions please see your child’s class teacher.
Trip Deadlines
A reminder that the deadline for the permission slips for following trips are next week:
St Fagans
Eversheds
Techniquest
Swimming
Lateness
The total number of minutes pupils arrived late to school last week was 197 mins. That’s 3 hours and 17 minutes of lost time at school.
Please ensure your child comes to school on time every day.
Every moment a child is late = missed learning.
Children that are on time start the day settled, relaxed and ready to learn.
Children that arrive late are often stressed and embarrassed and take a while to settle into their day.
Late arrivals cause disruption within the class which has an effect on everyone.

Attendance Matters
The United Nation Article 28 states ‘every child has the right to have a primary education’. We are linking our attendance performance to this article.
We want our children to have the best possible education to give them the best chance in life. If your children aren’t in school we can’t give them this opportunity and can’t give them the opportunity to ‘be the best they can be.’
