This school relies on the parents’ support, to succeed. We, therefore, urge you to take an interest in your children’s education and to support the school in its work and public activities. This is an ‘open’ school, i.e. parents are always welcome. Indeed, we strongly urge you to visit, although please appreciate that classroom teacher cannot discuss pupils’ work with parents, unless by prior arrangement with the Headteacher. As well as visiting the school individually, parents also have three formal opportunities to visit the school during the year. We hold three Open Evenings, once a term. In addition to these Open Evenings, we usually hold a Concert or Carols Service at Christmas at the school hall or in Berea Newydd Chapel as well as Sports during the Summer term. We urge you to join in all these activities, as well as in the activities organized by the Parents Teachers Association. Parents must recognize the value of a frank and open relationship between them and the school. All of us share the same ultimate aim, namely to provide your children with the best possible education. The partnership is crucial to achieving our aim it depends on good contacts and co-operation between the home and school at all times. By the requirements of the 1986 Education Act, the LEA has prepared, and regularly reviews, a written policy statement on the secular curriculum. The National Curriculum’s requirements are interpreted in light of the LEA’s philosophy and current policies. On the whole, the National Curriculum is presented using thematic work. An outline of the contents of every theme is posted on the school’s website. A specific time frame is allocated for subjects especially Mathematics, Physical Education, and Music. Each term, the children visit places that are of educational value and match the current theme, places such as Pili Palas, Wales Slate Museum, Celtica, Penrhyn Castle, Llanystumdwy Museum, Gelli Gyffwrdd, Bangor Cathedral, and Dinas Dinlle Beach. We also invite individuals to the school to enhance children’s experiences. Every September, Year 6 pupils stay overnight at the Rhyd Ddu Centre near Beddgelert. They spend two days studying the local environment visiting Beddgelert, orienteering in Beddgelert forest, traveling on the little train from Caernarfon to Rhyd-Ddu, studying the effect of the new railway on the environment, and having a chat with the Eryri National Park Education Officer.
