Newyddion! Take a little look at what we have been up to...
Hugh congratulations to our Year 6 Rugby Team who competed at the Gwent Gateway Tag Rugby Tournament at Rodney Parade this week. Pupils demonstrated excellent teamwork, courage and tenacity when competing and will go through to the final on Saturday 9th May. We are delighted that the children were able to take part in such an exciting opportunity, which would not have been possible without the sponsorship and support from Powells Rural Property Professionals Limited.
We are very much looking forward to hosting our annual Summer Fete on Friday 3rd July. The PTFA are currently seeking volunteers to support the fete. Please contact the PTFA if you can help. raglanprimarypta@gmail.com
As the weather improves, please ensure your child has a LABELLED water bottle, a LABELLED sunhat and that suncream is applied BEFORE the school day.
There will be an information meeting for all parents and carers to find out more about the Year 6 outdoor residential trip to Gilwern during the summer term. The meeting will be on Tuesday 28th April at 3.45pm in the Year 6.
If you would like to pre-order a tea towel featuring a unique drawing from every child in the school – please email the PTFA direct. Cash payments can be dropped off at the School Office in a sealed envelope confirming your child’s name, the amount of cash inside and how many tea towels have been ordered.
