Tap, Tap, Tap!
The Nursery children had a great time today. To develop their hand eye coordination and fine motor skills, they hammered golf tees into a melon! They were very careful and put their safety googles on first. What fun!
Fabulous Fresh Fruit Kebabs.
Our number of the week this week was three, so the children made some healthy fruit kebabs using three different fruits. They chose from a selection of fruit including; apples, strawberries, kiwi, tangerines, bananas and pineapple. What a healthy snack! They tasted delicious too.

This morning, the KS2 children were put through their paces by taking part in a live workout with Joe Wicks. Everyday this week, KS2 will be getting fit at 10am. What a way to wake us all up on a Monday morning! Da iawn boys and girls – awesome effort!
Year 3 Paramedic Visit
We had a special visit today from paramedics Steff and Tash, along with their ambulance. In PSE this term we have been learning about first aid and the DR ABC method and are so lucky to have had this opportunity this afternoon. The session was so informative and the children thoroughly enjoyed having their stats read and being able to explore inside the ambulance. The children had lots of questions to ask and each of them was answered in detail. A huge thank you, I’m sure the children will remember this session for a long time!
Nursery’s Race for Life.
This morning the nursery children put on their running shoes to raise money for cancer research. The year 6 children helped them to run two laps around the junior yard before they were presented with their medals. Da iawn nursery!
Oh I Do Like To Be Beside The Seaside!
As part of our topic, ‘Oh I do like to be beside the Seaside!’ we decided to bring the beach to Pontlliw. The children built sandcastles, made ice cream sundaes, drank ice cool slushies and even paddled. What a fabulous morning!
Terrific Tennis!
Year 3/4 had a great day today at the Swansea Tennis Centre. They were taking part in a local tournament with nine other primary schools in Swansea. They won many of their matches showing great skill and determination. Well done boys and girls, you certainly are a credit to our school and we are all very proud of what you achieved today.
Year 3 Dwr Cymru Workshop
The children were lucky enough to take part in a Dwr Cymru workshop this afternoon. The activities were all based around saving water and not wasting it. We first learnt about the hippo bag which lives in the toilet! This bag can save a family of four up to 48 litres of water a day. The children then took part in water based challenges to see who could save the most water! They were so engaged and really enjoyed! Awesome teamwork Year 3!
