My School and Community
My School embodies the power of the community that we share here in Llanedeyrn. It shows us how much we can achieve when we all work together for our children; for our staff and governors; and for our parents and carers. It gives us a vision of their future world through today’s efforts and enables a strong community who work together and share individual successes.
My Aim for Every Child
My aim is to help each child find their unique voice and to learn how to use it effectively to voice their opinions and thoughts; to build positive relationships; and to be heard. I am excited by the Curriculum for Wales and believe that as a school, it is as important to encourage children to learn how to express themselves through music, art and dance as it is to develop a love of reading that will stay with them throughout their lives. I believe that we need to prepare children for the world of work through developing good habits in learning and attendance; nurturing positive mental and physical health; while also learning about our own country of Wales and the wider world.
Inclusive, High-Quality Education
Here at Llanedeyrn Primary School, we believe in diversity and in the potential of every child. I expect our School to be inclusive and forward thinking so that everyone has the chance to succeed. Education offers us a gift – to inspire a love of learning; to be creative; and to make bold, courageous decisions that will shape our futures. My role is to make sure that the systems in our School and the partnerships with children and their families ensure that teaching is of the highest quality, making learning challenging, relevant and purposeful.
Working with Families
As in any school, reviewing the curriculum and changing it for the needs of our children will be a constant process and this, I believe, needs to be shared with parents and carers and our local community so that all voices can be heard within our School setting.
We call ourselves a school family. I want us to keep making time for the simple pleasures of talking together, being out in nature and making the most of our families — our Home family and our School family.
I am always happy to speak with you and listen to your concerns or to share in your ideas and celebrations.
If you would like to know more about our School then please contact the School Office and make an appointment to speak to me or any of our senior staff who will enjoy talking to you about our School.
