  On a cold, snowy Tuesday our Eco Committee paid a Christmas related visit to the National Botanical Gardens just outside Carmarthen. They had the exciting task of decorating their own Christmas tree using recyclable materials, preparing seed for birds to enjoy during the winter months, seeing a beautiful array of butterflies and of course meeting Santa and his very special elf...the pictures tell the full story!

  Our talented pupils had the opportunity to share with parents all their IT knowledge today and they did a sterling job too! They were able to share all that they have learnt in the implementation of the new DCF (Digital Competency Framework) which is part of the new Welsh curriculum devised by Professor Donaldson. Out thanks to our ICT Subject Leaders, Miss Randall, Miss Lawrence & Mr. Slade for overseeing the event and of course to our parents for their ongoing interest and support!

  

• Year 6 visit Cardiff Castle

  Tue 07 Nov 2017 Steve Davies
  Our Year 6 classes paid a memorable visit to Cardiff Castle where the theme and focus of their time there was World War 2 which is their topic for this term. They learnt about the need for black-outs to avoid bomb detection; they looked at the type of food that British citizens could eat during rationing and experience life in the bunker when the air raid sirens were sounded! An excellent visit which captivated their interest and imagination as they continue to discover what life was like for those living through a time of war. You can also check out a short movie clip of the classes singing some memorable WW2 songs on the school's twitter feed!

• Debating Competition at Llysfaen Primary School

  Fri 20 Oct 2017 Steve Davies

  Two of our Year 6 pupils took part in a debating competition that looked at the question, 'Should young people be allowed to express how they feel?'

  Our two school representatives were given the task of opposing the view and had to present their case giving clear and valid reasons. They both did so well and learnt so much about presenting arguments giving supporting reasons for a viewpoint. Excellent work!

  What an evening our Year 6 leavers shared with their Mums, Dads and Grandparents in their wonderful production of 'Ali Baba and the Bongo Bandits.'
