Golftyn C.P. School

End of year message from Mrs Cooper

17 Jul 2026

Dear Parents and Carers,
As we reach the end of another busy school year at Golftyn, I wanted to say a huge well done to all of our wonderful children. It has been a fantastic year full of success and happy memories!
The children have worked so hard and tried their best with every challenge. We have had so much fun together along the way. From exciting school trips and fun activities to sports days and sporting events and competitions.  Residentials, St. David’s Day Celebrations and Forest School, the school has been full of smiles and laughter. It has been amazing to watch the children grow in confidence every single day.
None of this could happen without you. Thank you so much for all of your help and support this year. We enjoy working with you to make our school a happy place for the children.
Now, it is time for a well-earned rest! We hope you and your family have a wonderful, safe, and happy summer holiday. Let’s hope this weather stays and we get plenty of sunshine!
We can't wait to see you all again and hear about your summer stories when we welcome the children back on Wednesday, 2nd September.
Have a lovely summer!
Warmest wishes,
Mrs. Cooper

Message from Rupert's Dad 🌈

17 Jun 2026

My son, Rupert, is one year old and lives with Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood (AHC), an ultra-rare neurological condition affecting approximately 1 in 1 million people. AHC can cause episodes of paralysis, seizures, breathing difficulties and a range of other complex symptoms. Despite everything he faces, Rupert continues to smile through the challenges and inspire those around him.
To help raise awareness of AHC, we’ve launched the #7ForRupert Challenge alongside the World Cup.
The challenge is simple:
⚽ Do 7 keepy-uppies (or as many as you can!)
📹 Record a short video
📲 Share it on social media using #7ForRupert
👥 Nominate 3 others to take part
The challenge isn’t about football ability. It’s about having fun, getting active and helping spread awareness of a condition that very few people have ever heard of.
We would be incredibly grateful if the school could share the challenge with parents via email, newsletters or social media, and encourage pupils to get involved with their families.
Every participant helps Rupert’s story reach a little further and raises awareness of AHC.
Thank you for taking the time to read this email and for any support you may be able to offer.
 
Kind regards,
Dave
Rupert’s Dad 🌈💛

Neurodiversity Celebration Week

11 Mar 2026
Dear Parents/Carers,
 
Next week we will be celebrating Neurodiversity Celebration Week in school. As part of this, we would like to encourage the children to come to school on Wednesday 18th March wearing something that makes them feel happy, comfortable, or expresses who they are. This could be a favourite colour, a fun accessory, a cosy jumper, or anything that helps them feel their best.
The aim is to celebrate how everyone’s brains work differently and to promote acceptance, understanding, and kindness.
Children should still wear suitable clothing for a normal school day, including appropriate footwear for playtimes.
Thank you for your support in helping us celebrate what makes each of us unique.
 
Mrs Williams

Cinderella Pantomime - Thursday 4th December

18 Sep 2025

Dear Parents and Carers

Trip to the Pantomime for pupils in Years 1 & 2 on Thursday 4th December.


We would like to take the children to see Cinderella at Theatre Clwyd, Mold. 
The cost is £12 to cover admission to the theatre. The cost of the transport will be paid with the proceeds of ticket sales from the Christmas concerts. 
Payments can now be made on School Gateway.
The trip is a Christmas treat for pupils, it is not a curriculum trip. Therefore, the theatre tickets are funded solely by payments made by parents and carers. Unfortunately, we do not have sufficient funds in our school budget to cover ticket costs and therefore children will only be able to go to the theatre if the £12 payment is made.
Please could you pay via School Gateway payment facility and give consent by clicking on the link below by Friday 3rd October as we need to confirm numbers and pay the theatre.
Y1 & 2 Cinderella Pantomime Trip Consent form 2025 - Google Forms

Gwella - Enrolment for Swimming Lessons

12 Sep 2025

Dear Parents/Guardians,
Swimming is not only a fun activity but also a vital life skill. It helps children build confidence, stay active, and, most importantly, stay safe in and around water. We know that not all children are currently able to access school swimming lessons, and we want to make sure every child has the chance to learn this essential skill.
To support families, Gwella is offering a variety of swimming lessons for children of all ages and abilities. We also provide specialised sessions for pupils with ALN, ensuring they can learn in a supportive environment alongside peers with similar needs. These sessions are designed to help every child progress at their own pace, gain water confidence, and enjoy the many benefits that come with learning to swim.
Taking part in lessons now is a great way to give your child a head start before school swimming begins, or simply to boost their confidence and enjoyment of the water.
Spaces are limited, so we encourage you to book early to secure a place. For more details or to reserve a lesson, please contact us at swim@gwella.wales
We look forward to welcoming your child to the pool and supporting them on their swimming journey.
Best wishes,
The Gwella Swim Team
