Weather Warning
With temperatures expected to rise throughout the week, reaching up to 36°C in the shade, we would like to remind parents and carers of the importance of ensuring that their child brings a refillable water bottle to school each day.
A number of children arrived without water bottles today, and having access to water throughout the day is essential as we work to minimise the impact of the current heatwave.
Thank you for your continued support and cooperation.

Upcoming Hot Weather Warning
With the upcoming hot weather forecast, we ask that you ensure your child brings a water bottle and a hat to school, and that sun cream is applied before they arrive, to help keep them as safe and comfortable as possible.
We will ensure that children have access to shade during playtimes and will be running a shorter lunchtime play session outdoors, with part of lunchtime spent indoors to avoid prolonged exposure to the heat.
Thank you for your ongoing support.

Sports Day Results
What a fantastic Sports Day we’ve had! From our Nursery children yesterday to all of today’s events, it has been wonderful to see every child taking part, giving their best and, most importantly, having fun.
A huge thank you to everyone who came into school to support the events. The children thoroughly enjoyed seeing you there and performing in front of such a great crowd. Your support is truly appreciated by both staff and pupils. We would also like to thank everyone who supported our raffle, which raised an impressive £257. This will go towards providing valuable resources, opportunities and experiences for our children.
We are very grateful to our PTA for providing all of the children with a well-deserved ice lolly after their events.
After adding up all of the scores, the final results are:
Congratulations to Caradog, this year’s Sports Day champions! 🏆

Sports Day
Bore da!
After reviewing several weather forecasts, there is a small possibility of a few showers this afternoon, but conditions currently look favourable for our Nursery Sports Day to go ahead as planned.
For those attending, please enter the field via the front of the school, passing the Nursery class and following the route behind Dosbarth Oren, as indicated by the yellow arrow on the site map. For those entering from Cherry Tree Way, the same applies, please follow the path around the front of the school continuing past the Nursery class and Dosbarth Oren to the field.
There will be a raffle available on entry to the field, with tickets priced at £1 per strip. If possible, please bring some change with you.
For everyone's safety, please remain behind the barrier at all times and do not enter the woodland area. The white arrow on the map shows the direction in which the children will be running. Spectators should have a good view of the events from any position behind the barrier.
Looking ahead to tomorrow, current forecasts also suggest conditions should remain dry enough for our Reception to Year 6 Sports Day to proceed as planned. However, please keep a close eye on the school app tomorrow morning for any updates should the weather change.
The same entry arrangements will apply tomorrow: spectators should access the field via the front of the school, following the route marked by the yellow arrow on the map. Raffle tickets will again be available to purchase on entry for £1 per strip.
Thank you, as always, for your continued support. We look forward to seeing you there.

School Closure Message – Wednesday 23rd & Thursday 24th June
Dear Parents and Carers,
Following discussions with the Local Authority and Headteachers across Merthyr schools, and in light of the Red Weather Warning currently in place, a decision has been made to close the school on Wednesday 23rd and Thursday 24th June. I have attached a letter from the Local Authority regarding the current situation.
This decision has been taken due to the serious risk to safety posed by the extreme weather conditions and the high temperatures within school buildings, which do not have air conditioning. The safety and wellbeing of our pupils and staff is our absolute priority.
Pupils will be provided with learning activities via the school’s online platforms for them to access at home during this time.
We are currently planning for the school to reopen as normal on Friday, unless further updates are issued.
During this period of extreme heat, it is vitally important that all children are kept safe at home. Please ensure they are kept as cool as possible, in shaded areas where appropriate, and are encouraged to drink plenty of water to stay well hydrated. We also ask that outdoor activity is kept to a minimum during the hottest parts of the day.
We appreciate your understanding and support during this time. Further updates will be shared via the school app if needed.
Thank you for helping us to keep our school community safe.
Kind regards.
June 23rd, 2026 / June 26th, 2026
