Barcud Coch spent the afternoon learning about the parts of a plant. Mrs Morris brought in some flowers to dissect and everyone was thoroughly engaged in the activity.

Lego Spike Essential-Rainforest Buggy
This afternoon we had great fun creating a rainforest buggy for explorer Bethan using the Lego Spike Essential from our cluster coding kit. We followed the instructions carefully to create the buggy and then we used our programming skills to change the colour of the lights. Great team Work!
Dydd Cymraeg
Today we had a great day celebrating Wales through lots of fun, Welsh activities. Reception focused on ‘Sut wyt ti?’ and Year One ‘Ble wyt ti’n byw?’ We played parachute games, decorated biscuits with feelings and houses and loved the silent disco!

We decorated some biscuits showing if we were feeling hapus, drist, bendigedig or wedi blino.
Then we had lots of fun at the silent disco.
Community as a Superpower!
This year, the ‘Power of Community’ was the refugee Week theme. Together we are very strong, creative and make things happen.
We assembled in marquee on the field and we spilt into four mixed aged groups. Each group was responsible for making each bird; the tern, the swift, the whooper swan and the red kite.
Each child had their very own hand-held bird which they decorated.
We also created our own nest by weaving ripstop ribbons around willow.
In the afternoon, we took our individual birds on a journey ‘around the world’ through the obstacle course depicting the ice, sea, wind and even a volcano! We thought carefully about all of the things that we noticed about our journey.

At the end of the day, we gently carried our large birds to meet each other and ‘perch’ on the Kite’s nest. This represented the Kite offering Sanctuary to the migrants for as long as they need it.
We were very grateful to Larry and Ciara and their team of willing volunteers that enabled us to be strong, creative and to make wonderful things happen!
Packing for the Rainforest
Reception pupils had the task of packing Bethan’s (welsh explorer) suitcase for her trip to the rainforest. Pupils decided what to put in the case and take out of the case, using their knowledge of what the rainforest is like and the weather there.

Well-being day
For our well-being day Year 6 pupils welcomed parents into the classroom after our class assembly. They then chose to either play rounders or to do some arts & crafts outside. This was followed by a Forest School session in the afternoon. How relaxing!
Year 6 Leavers’ Service
Our Year 6 pupils were invited to Brecon Cathedral to take part in the Leavers’ Service for the children in the diocese. Pupils created a banner, which represented our school, to present to the Bishop. We took part in a service then enjoyed some different activities in the Cathedral in the afternoon. Roedd e’n hyfryd.
