Dear Parents,

Its hard to believe it but the school year is almost at an end and we will shortly be closing for the summer break. I would like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to all those parents, carers, and adults who have helped the school and our pupils at times throughout the year. Your assistance and additional skills and experiences are, and have been, highly valued and appreciated by all of us.

Mr Llewellyn
Congratulations to Mr Llewellyn and his wife Leah on the birth of their first child. Pictures of Jac Lewis Llewellyn are already published on the Year 5 blog!
Congratulations again to Mr Llewellyn on his appointment as Acting Deputy Head of Pontyclun Primary starting in January 2010 as I begin my secondment.

Mrs A Wilkins
As you are aware Mrs Roberts will be leaving the school on Friday after 17 years. Her replacement will be Mrs Alison Wilkins who is presently school clerk at Ynyshir Primary.

End of term
Just to remind parents that school closes for the summer term on Friday July 17th at 3.15pm for infants and 3.30pm for juniors. We wish you all a very happy and enjoyable summer break.

Mrs Holley.
Sadly Mrs Holly will be retiring next Friday as our school crossing patrol lady, after over 30 years of service! We wish her all the very best for her retirement and thank her for all her efforts, come rain or shine, over years.

Dogs
Please remember that dogs are not to be brought into the school at any time. Thank you for your co-operation.

Lost property
The lost property pile has grown to titanic proportions! Please do encourage your child to check the pile for lost items. Any items left at the end of the school year will be recycled.
