Friends of Ysgol Rhiw Bechan

Did you know we have a Dragon Bags Collection bin at the School?

If you're having a clear out over Christmas and would like to donate anything, the bin is to the left of the entrance next to the cardboard bin. If it's full on a Wednesday and the weather is dry, you can leave them next to it but please don't leave bags in the rain.

List attached of what can and cannot be accepted ❤️

Tomorrow is the last day you can order school photo's 📸

If you haven't done so already, order yours asap 🙌🙌

Photos have now been sent out to all those who had a Xmas Photoshoot at the Xmas Fayre on Sunday - please check spam too - any issues please contact on here or message Nikki on her page Royal Touch Photography 🎅🧑‍🎄🎄

We're done for this year and what a year it has been!
We just want to announce our next event which is in February! We're pretty excited about this one. Always a good day 🍹💃
This is Helen and Kaye's last Ladies Day as they say their goodbyes to Ysgol Rhiw Bechan and Friends of the school at the end of the school year so let's make it a good one!
You know the drill.... Message Helen Law to reserve a table.

***Ysgol Bro Caereinion Consultation***"

Please find below a link to the PCC consultation documents which includes the very important response form.

-- Most of the documents are quite phone unfriendly. The writing is small and the form is hard to read. We would advise maybe opening on a laptop for ease.

-- There is a full 80 page Consultation document which is included. If this is a bit much or too hard a read for some, the consultation for young people document simplifies the full document and compresses it all down for ease.

-- Anyone can fill in a response form, so please do. Parents (one each if possible!), careers, grandparents, neighbours! The more, the absolute merrier.

-- So please, please fill in a form detailing your thoughts on the whole proposal being made.

-- Deadline is 30th November, so have a read, have a think and respond!

If you have any further questions or require help in any way, please message us and we will do our best to help.

Reminder - we have our AGM next Monday!

It would be great to have your support with fundraising going forward. Alot of our members and volunteers are junior parents so it would be beneficial for infant parents to get involved too.

The more help we have, the less work there is.

See you there
