What a wonderful week. I have been so proud of everyone. On Monday I received a certificate from the NSPCC for the amazing £2600 that was raised by the school to stop cruelty to children. Then on Wednesday I watched our Year 6 present their SAFE project to parents and staff from all of the cluster schools and the police. I have to say that ours were clearly the best in their presentation and behaviour - a credit to us all. The week ended with our fabulous African celebration. It was fantastic to see the children's work and the experiences of Mrs. Decaro and Mrs. Dobbins. We are so grateful to all who attended and helped raise £590 for our twin school in Uganda - they will now be able to buy a new well and possibly the solar panel. What is more, we have gained a tremendous bank of work for all areas of the curriculum. Can I thank all of you but especially my wonderful staff and brilliant children for making all of this possible.
Don't forget there is no school on Monday - so enjoy the long weekend.

Mr Roberts & all staff -
ReplyDeleteWe think that the link you have with Sikusi Primary School is tremendous. Our children can learn so much from this, and it also enables us to do what we can to help the pupils of Sikusi, long term.
We are very happy and proud that our children are part of Maesybryn.
Diolch.
A good (very well attended) evening and good to see so much raised for the school in Uganda. As a parent it is nice to have the feedback and apprecaite the purpose of the visits by Mrs D & Mrs D. It is also of course nice to see your child performing something of what they have learnt with their classmates for a wider audience and see some of the art work etc on display - no doubt part of the reason for the excellent attendance being the prospect of seeing your child perform there. Congratulations and rightfully proud.
ReplyDeleteWill there be a Ugandan theme to future events? Will the school groups be performing for some of those future events also - eg Summer Fayre? Sports Day? When is sports day?
GP
Yes - I can confirm that some school groups will be performing in the summer fayre...
ReplyDeleteand I hope that we will be able to maintain our link with Uganda - perhaps organising an annual fundraising event for Sikusi school-(any ideas welcome!)
diolch yn fawr iawn for all your positive feedback and suggestions,
Mrs Decaro
i too am wondering if there is to be a sports day this year?
