  Parent Information- Dear Parents and Carers
  You may be aware of an incident that took place in Brynmawr, Blaenau Gwent on the 16th May, 2023,

  following the incident and is being well supported by the School and the Police.

  information with our Parents and Carers within Merthyr Tydfil to not only make you aware, but to have

  There are ‘Six Principles of Nurture’ which we want to embed throughout our school and school community.

  Our ‘Nurture Principle’ this week is: The Importance of Nurture to the Development of Well-being “Nurture helps us feel good in our mind and body.”
