Ysgol Dôlafon Newsletter

Ysgol Dôlafon was awarded a Nature Grant from the Postcode Lottery. We have bought bird boxes, feeders, bird box camera, birdbath, bird food, etc. These have been put up in the school garden. We do have a pied flycatcher nesting in one of the boxes unfortunately not the one with the camera! In future, we hope to share camera footage with you all via our new website which is currently being developed.

Members of our Choir took part in the St David’s Day celebrations in the Heritage Centre on the 1st March and Mother’s day pictures drawn by pupils were printed in the County Times newspaper.

Sophie Pickup’s design has been chosen by Rev. Petra Beresford-Webb for the new Altar Cloth in St David’s Church.

Cath Williams (Foundation Phase teacher) accompanied four pupils to an Eco-Day in Talgarth. The Eco-School Council welcomed our Mayor Lynda Avery and Town Clerk Lynne Ball to discuss plans for the Dôlwen Field Project and the possibility of setting up a Youth Council. They both joined the Chair and Vice-Chair of the Board of Governors, to listen to the Eco-School Council’s presentation on the environmental impact of ‘hand dryers v paper towels’.

To raise awareness of Fairtrade representatives from the Co-Op spent an afternoon in the school working with all pupils. They shared information on Fairtrade chocolate and bananas. The taster sessions were enjoyed by all! We held a Fairtrade Assembly for pupils and members of the community, this was followed by a Fairtrade Breakfast, we served Fairtrade tea, coffee, hot chocolate, juice, cereal and Fairtrade jam or marmalade on toast or bagels. We raised £70 for the Fairtrade Foundation.

Pupils dressed up as a character from their favourite book for World Book Day. The winners were presented with books. We also took part in a Powys Library Service competition. Sophie Pickup won the Powys KS2 competition by designing and developing a new character for her favourite book. She was presented with a Michael Murpugo book by Librarian Lesley Fisher at Llanwrtyd Library.

THANK YOU The family of the late John Price thank everyone for the kind messages of sympathy and donations given in his memory.

In accordance with his wishes, as a founder member of ‘Friends of Llanwrtyd Station’ and a member of HOWLTA, donations given in his memory have been allocated for the upkeep of our railway station.

In acknowledgement of his lifelong commitment to this community a tree will be planted in his memory at the station.
