Topic Homework- Summer term.

This term, our homework was topic based where we had to create a presentation on Kenya ‘The Masai Mara National Reserve’ and compare to the Brecon Beacons National Park. We had to include as much information as possible and find out lots of similarities and differences between the two reserves.   We had to include pictures, factual information and present it on double A4 paper. We were allowed to have flaps, as long as when the book was shut, they wouldn’t be sticking out. We had 3 weeks to complete the project.

We all enjoyed being creative in our work and developing our research skills in a fun and exciting way.

Topic Homework – Summer term

This term, our homework was topic based where we had to create a presentation on ‘Home is where the heart is’ where we compared Alltwen to coastal towns such as Tenby and New Quay. We had to include as much information as possible and find out lots of similarities and differences between the two towns. We had to include pictures, factual information and present it on double A4 paper. We were allowed to have flaps, as long as when the book was shut, they wouldn’t be sticking out. We had 3 weeks to complete the project.

We all enjoyed being creative in our work and developing our research skills in a fun and exciting way.

Attendance

Lateness Adds Up!

Being late by 15 minutes every day, will add up to TWO WEEKS of school being missed each year.

 

Education Welfare Officer (EWO)

Good attendance is intrinsic to achieving the best outcomes possible for individual learners. We have an Educational Welfare Officer (EWO) whose role is to provide help and support to families where regular school attendance is an issue. The EWO is supported by the school office staff who make ‘first day response’ calls/texts to parents of absent pupils.

Penalty Notices

Welsh Government has instructed all Local Authorities to implement Penalty Notices under the Education (Penalty Notice) (Wales) Regulations 2013. The Local Authority believes that any absence from school, for whatever reason, is detrimental to a child’s long term life opportunities, so should be avoided if at all possible. A Penalty Notice is an alternative to prosecution with the aim of seeking to secure an improvement in the child’s attendance at school.
