VERY SUCCESSFUL PFA NEON DISCO

Thanks to our extremely hard working PFA, tonight’s disco was extremely successful. There was a lot of dancing, eating and socialising and everybody had a great time.

A SPECIAL SERVICE FOR A SPECIAL GROUP OF YEAR 6 CHILDREN

A dull Wednesday afternoon was eclipsed by the brightness and positivity of a wonderful group of Year 6 children who have served the school so well.
This is not how anyone wanted the year to end but at least there was an opportunity for a special socially distanced goodbye.

Thank  you Frankie, Leo, Erin, Iestyn, Ava,  Ethan, Tom C, Emily, TLD, Katie, Zachary, Maddison, Molly S, Teifion, Molly D, Mariella, Ayza and Sienna – for creating many happy memories at St. Nicholas C/W Primary School
