Christmas Fair & Whitford After School Club

11/28/2016

CHRISTMAS FAIR
The Christmas Fair is this Wednesday 30th November after school. Thank you all for your kind donations and thank you to the Friends of the school for all of their hard work in preparing for the event. 

Please come along and support us on the day - there will be lots to do and see. I'm sure Father Christmas will even be there on his sleigh! Look out for more information tomorrow.

WHITFORD AFTER SCHOOL CLUB
Whitford After School Club committee needs more support. If you haven't already seen the letter sent out by the club, then follow this link

In order for the ASC to grow and continue, the committee needs new members to join them. They have approached the school for support and have also appealed to parents before. If you think that you have any skills necessary to support the club, please get in touch. 

The ASC now have a page on the school website and this will be updated before the end of this term. http://www.ysgolyllan.co.uk/whitford-after-school-club.html

As you begin preparations for Christmas and make room for any new gifts that Santa may bring, please consider giving any unwanted toys, games etc to the ASC. Thank you to the parents that have already brought in toys, paper, crafts, cars and a wii console - they are all being put to good use!

Thank you all for your continued support and see you at the Christmas Fair!

Athletics, Church Service & Parents' Evening

11/8/2016

0 Comments

 
A few reminders!

Athletics
If your child has been given an athletics letter last week or this week, please ensure that the return slip is returned tomorrow morning. Alternatively, you may contact the school office to state whether or not your child can attend and if you are able to help provide lifts to/from the venue. If we do not hear from you, we will assume that you do not want your child to participate in the event. So far, we have one parent who has offered to help with lifts. We have approximately 20 children to take to the event so more support is needed in order for us to participate - please let us know if you can help. A decision will be made in the morning based on whether or not we can transport children to the event.

Church Service
As always, you are more than welcome to join us during our Wednesday Church service. Tomorrow is a normal Church service but Reverend Lorraine will be making reference to Remembrance Day. The older children may be sharing some of their work during the service.

Parents' Evening
Tomorrow evening is our parents' evening between 3.30pm and 5.30pm. The session allows you to look through books, speak to the class teacher and ask any questions. Please remember that if you wish to speak to the teacher in private, then we can arrange for this to happen. If you are unable to make tomorrow, then contact your child's teacher to make a more convenient appointment. The ASC tomorrow is full - due to 'Cooking Club' in the hall - no more children will be able to join them as they have reached their limit.

Further Information
For further information regarding any of the above, or any other queries, please do not hesitate to contact the school office via phone (01745 560431) or email (whmail@hwbcymru.net). All questions can be officially answered this way and messages can also be passed on to the class teachers.

Kind regards

​Mr Griffiths

November updates!

11/6/2016

Dear Parents/Guardians
 
I would just like to update you on a few items for this half term.

  • OWN CLOTHES days – the Friends of the school would like a couple of own clothes days in exchange for donations towards the Christmas Fair.
 
-        Friday 11th November                 -        for bottles or a £1 donation
-        Friday 25th November                -        for chocolates, sweets or a £1 donation

  • CHILDREN IN NEED – on Friday 18th November, children may come to school wearing SPOTS if they wish to support ‘Children in Need’ for a £1 donation.  Cakes will be on sale at the end of the school day.

  • SCHOOL PHOTOS – School Photos have been moved to Tuesday 22nd November due to our school hall not being available on the original date. Sorry for any inconvenience.

  • CLASS 4 ASSEMBLY – Class 4’s assembly will now take place on Tuesday 22nd November at 2pm (NOT Friday 18th November). Everyone is welcome.

  • SCHOOL CHOIR – the school choir competed at the Choral Festival last Friday at Venue Cymru, Llandudno. They will soon be organising an afternoon of tea and cakes whilst they sing some of their songs for you. Keep an eye out for more information and we hope to see you there!

  • CHURCH SERVICE – this Wednesday 9th November will be our Armistice Day service in Church. As with any weekly service, parents, guardians and grandparents are more than welcome to join us. This will be a normal school service led by Reverend Lorraine but some pupils may share some of their work on the day.
 
  • HOLIDAY REQUESTS – due to the position we are in regarding our attendance figures, any holiday requests will look at the attendance of children over the previous 12 month period. Our Governors are on board with improving attendance and hopefully you have read their letter and will support us moving forward. We will shortly be reviewing the point system. Flintshire recommended that any attendance figures below our target (95%) should not be authorised. At this current moment in time, attendance figures less than 92% will result in not being authorised as this is ‘missing more than 3 weeks of education’. Every lesson counts at Ysgol y Llan!

  • PARENTS’ EVENING – next Wednesday 9th November is our Parents’ Evening. This first evening of the year is an informal drop in session between 3.30pm and 5.30pm and therefore, no appointment is necessary. It is still very much an important evening and has many benefits:
  1. You will not just be confined to 5 mins with the teacher
  2. Unlike many first parents’ evenings in other schools, you will have the option to look at your child’s books in a relaxed manner. This is a perfect opportunity at an early stage in the year to raise any questions with the Class teacher – you may already have your own questions, yet once seeing the workbooks, it may raise more questions.
  3. Miss Davies is available to speak to as she works with many pupils on additional areas of learning.
  4. If you want to speak to the teacher in private, then this is still possible on the evening – just ask!
  5. I will be available available to speak to if you have any concerns or compliments that you wish to share.

  • OUTDOOR CLASSROOM – planning permission for the outdoor classroom was approved last week. The building is now in storage and we hope to see it within the next few weeks. On its arrival, we NEED volunteers to help us paint it – we have purposefully chosen the larger 6m x 4m x 68mm cabin so that it lasts. However, it will be supplied untreated and will therefore need painting immediately. Please contact the office if you can help in any way.
 
Many thanks for your continued support
 
Mr. Griffiths
