Just 1 Tree fundraiser - Friday 22nd November
Our school will be taking part in the Just ONE tree non uniform day on Friday 22nd November. Just one tree is a non profit initiative designed to remove CO2 from the atmosphere through the planting of trees. Just one tree make it simple for everyone to contribute because Just £1 plants ONE plant.
We hope children will be able to support our Children's Voice eco initiative. Some members of our Children's Voice have put together a short video to provide you with more information.

Oldcastle Primary School would like to start 'Enrichment Sessions' for our pupils and staff. Brynteg, our local comprehensive school, have successfully been running enrichment sessions for the last year and this has provided pupils and staff the opportunity to learn new skills.
Our aim is to provide pupils and staff time once a fortnight to have the opportunity to come off timetable and do something completely different. We are hopeful that the range of sessions we can offer at Oldcastle will include life skills, cookery, first aid, sewing, knitting, art, emergency services, computing and many more. The sessions will probably take place from 2pm to 3pm.
In order for the Enrichment Programme to be a success, we are keen to involve parents, carers, grandparents, and colleagues. Do you have a skill that may be of interest and are you able to volunteer at our school? We aim to run the sessions on an afternoon every fortnight for a whole term. Please complete the form below and let us know if you can help.
If you would like to discuss the programme before completing the form please contact the admin office on 01656 815790.
