Please see the attached leaflet from Gwent Police regarding the recent concerns raised by the Council and local residents about the use of electric scooters in the Nelson and Treharris areas.

Reports have highlighted concerns around anti-social behaviour involving young children using electric scooters, as well as the potential risks to their safety and the safety of others in the community.

☕🍰 Macmillan Coffee Morning Cake Sale 🍰☕

Next Friday, 25th September, we will be hosting a Macmillan Coffee Morning cake sale to raise money for this very worthwhile cause.

We would be very grateful for donations of cakes, biscuits or other baked treats that we can sell throughout the day. Every donation, big or small, will help us raise as much as possible for Macmillan.

Our cake sale will be open:

• At the start of the day: from children's drop-off until 9:30am
• At the end of the day: from 3:15pm

The children will also have the opportunity to bring in some money to buy a treat. Throughout the day on Friday, each class will visit the cake stall, where children can choose to purchase a cake or biscuit if they wish.

We will also have a selection of items suitable for children and adults with dietary requirements, so that everyone can enjoy a treat.

Thank you so much for your support and for helping us raise money for such an important cause! 💚

📚 Weekly Attendance Update 📚

Each Friday, we’ll be sharing our whole-school attendance figure with families as we work together towards achieving 95% attendance or above consistently. Good attendance is so important, as every day in school is an opportunity for children to learn, build friendships and make progress. 🌟

📊 This Week’s Attendance: 92.2% 📊

This week, our whole-school attendance was 92.2%. While we know that some absences are unavoidable, we are keen to see this figure improve and move closer to our 95% school target.

Every day really does count, and even small improvements can make a big difference. We encourage all families to continue supporting their children to attend school regularly and arrive ready to learn each day. 🏫📚

💪 Our focus for next week is to improve our attendance and work together towards 95% and beyond!

Thank you for your continued support — let’s see if we can raise our attendance figure next week! 🌟👏

Celebration Assembly! 🌟

Another wonderful Celebration Assembly at Trelewis Primary was the perfect way to round off a fantastic week!

We came together to celebrate our pupils’ fantastic achievements and recognise all their hard work, effort and success. It was lovely to see so many of our pupils being celebrated for their dedication and positive contributions.

We are incredibly proud of each and every one of them! 👏🎉
