A BIG well done to the children in Class 7 who took part in the Remembrance Service on Friday evening. You read the poem so clearly and with emotion. The room fell silent to listen!

Da iawn! We are very proud of you!

For the Fallen



Robert Laurence Binyon, by artist William Strang.
Laurence Binyon

Poem by Robert Laurence Binyon (1869-1943), published in The Times newspaper on 21st September 1914.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.


















Remembrance Service

Well done to all the children who took part in the Remembrance Service on Friday at St Illtyd's Church Hall memorial. Despite the dreadful weather, the children stood quietly and remembered those who have died or been injured in wars. 

'We will remember them.'

On Friday, class 7 did their assembly on World War 1. 
The children have been studying The Great War to mark the centenary.
They have read stories, written letters and created poems. 

They recited the book Where the Poppies Now Grow and then finished the assembly with a rendition of Pack Up Your Troubles and It's a Long Way to Tipperary.

Da iawn, dosbarth 7! Gwaith ardderchog!

WW2 Trip to Cardiff Castle

We had a great trip to Cardiff Castle to take part in some World War 2 activities.

First we learnt the songs We'll Meet Again and Hey, Little Hen, which we later performed with Class 6. Then we were met by an ARP warden, who told us about his role. We then went into the Air Raid shelters of the Castle. Finally, we had an interesting talk about many aspects of the war, such as gas masks, incendiary devices, the bombing of Cardiff etc. We even had the opportunity to use a stirrup pump to put out a 'fire'!
