Additional Training Day

A big welcome back to all our children, staff and parents as a new year starts at Ffynnon Taf. A full newsletter with important information and some useful dates for your diary will be out next week. Until then, there are just a couple of points that need addressing.

 Firstly, many of you would have received the text highlighting the training day on Tuesday 11^th September. This is a cluster training day where staff from all schools will undertake literacy training at ESIS in Nantgarw. I would like to point out that we have no choice but to close and had no say in the day selected for this training. This will form one of our statutory training days and is not an additional day. I apologise for any inconvenience caused by the late notice of this closure.

 Secondly, you would have noticed that the new classroom is finished but our planned improvements do not end there. We are currently working on the design of a new early years playground which will see the existing site extend to the fence where the pedestrian access gate is located. As a result this gate will remain out of use. The procedures for dropping off and picking up will remain almost the same as when construction was taking place. The only difference being the middle silver gates will now be open for pedestrian access.
