Thank you so much to all of the children who entered our ‘Extreme Reading Competition.’ We have been overwhelmed with the number of entries and the amazing places you have been caught reading. The photo’s have been shared in today’s assembly and winners will be picked by teachers ready to announce in tomorrow’s Star of the Week Assembly. A huge well done to all of the children for the fantastic costumes worn for ‘World Book Day.’ You all looked absolutely brilliant. Take a look at the powerpoint to see all classes entries 🙂

Thank you so much to everyone who contributed so generously to ‘Operation Christmas Child.’ We have been absolutely overwhelmed with the gifts donated and even had to order more boxes! The gifts were dropped off at Morrisons in Welshpool on Friday and we just know they are going to make less fortunate children around the world very happy on Christmas morning. Thank you Bryn Offa 🙂

Bryn Offa would like to thank Booka Bookshop for their kind donation of Marcus Rashford’s ‘You are a Champion’ to all of our year 6 children. The pupils cannot wait to start reading!

We are having the most amazing time at Arthog! The children have already had the chance to play on the beach and in the sea! Last night, we walked into Barmouth and enjoyed ice creams and lollies on the beach. Over the next few days, the children will have the chance to go climbing, raft building, canoeing and gorge walking. Everyone will have some incredible memories and experiences to share with you when they get home. 

Miss Hyde, Mr Jones and Mr Bevan 😊

This week is British Science Week in school. We thought it would be a fantastic way to welcome the children back to school by the children taking part in some fun investigations and even live lessons. Each class teacher will be updating their Class Homepage with photos so you can see what we have been up to.
