Eisteddfod 2018
Mon 12 Mar 2018Our Eisteddfod took place a little later than planned (due to the snow!) but it was well worth the wait! We celebrated the children's superb work, in home projects, artwork, handwriting, singing, performing and of course in the creative writing department!
Congratulations to Willow House who came through winners of the 'St. David's Day shield' for this year!
Llongyfarchiadau (Congratulations) also to Lindsay Djiaga who wrote a brilliant poem about Wales and was our 'Bard winner' this year!

Year 5 perform at the Senedd
Thu 08 Mar 2018What a terrific performance from our Year 5 pupils under the guidance and coaching of Dan & Sian from the Welsh National Opera! They performed two suffragette songs at the Senedd along with St. Mellons Primary School and what a team they were. Their performance was part of a focus on the well known suffragette ‘Lady Rhondda’ (Margaret Mackworth) linked to ‘International Women’s Day’. We were so proud of this achievement and each pupil did their part to make the evening so memorable. Well done!

Football Tournament at Leckwith Stadium

They narrowly missed out on qualifying for the play-offs but made us all (parents, Mr Brady & Mr. Evans!) very proud of them. Great work lads!

Year 3 perform at the 'Strictly Come Dancing' Showcase
Thu 14 Dec 2017Our Year 3 pupils loved having the opportunity to perform at St. Illtyd's High School as part of a showcase involving three other local Primaries.

Our thanks also to Creazione who have worked with the school over the past six weeks, helping develop the children's dance moves and routines!
