BelongNurturing positive conditions to thrive

Wellbeing at the heart of the school: a safe, secure, happy and inclusive environment where pupils and staff feel valued and their voices are listened to.

BelieveIgniting a passion and excitement for learning

Determined, independent, resilient learners who are willing to take risks, learn from others and play an active role in their own learning.

Be youFostering individuality

Every pupil and member of staff valued as an individual, growing in self-esteem and becoming the best version of themselves, celebrated across the school.

Cymraeg Campus

Bronze and Silver won. Gold in our sights.

Cymraeg Campus is the language charter we use to bring Welsh into every corner of school life. Our Criw Cymraeg, two pupils from each class from Year 3 to Year 6, make sure children and staff use as much Welsh as possible, and lead our fortnightly Gwasanaeth Cymraeg.
