Newsflash
It is with some sadness that I report that Mrs McTaggart will be retiring as Deputy Headteacher of Cwmlai Primary School at Christmas time. She has given 37 years service to our school and community and has been a truly fantastic teacher, colleague and friend to many. I am sure you will all join me in wishing her a wonderful retirement. She will be sorely missed.
Penalty shoot out
We had a fun morning with the CCFC Penalty shoot out. All the children from year 3 up who wanted to try their luck had a go, amongst much cheering. Please could you return any donations or sponsor money by the end of the week.
Thanks for your support
Mr Phillips.
