Following their work on maps, Dosbarth Un have created models of the significant features of New Radnor. The learners worked collaboratively, thoughtfully selecting their own resources for their models. They made excellent use of the pictures taken during our welly walk to support their work. The learners then moved onto peer assessing each other’s work and responded to the feedback they received.

Dosbarth Miss Powell spent the morning observing in Radnor Valley Little Robins Playgroup. This was so that we could collect information to inform our decisions, as part of our task to plan and deliver a Welsh themed-provision for this group! Diolch yn fawr iawn to the fabulous Hannah for supporting us with this project.
We are thrilled to share some amazing news with you all!
Today, we had some surprise visitors into school from Powys Recycling and ERP UK Ltd, who announced that we have won the Powys Recycling Battery Competition! Our school recycled an incredible 289.5 kg of batteries – that’s around 6 kilos per pupil! As a reward for this fantastic achievement, we have received some vouchers, which the Eco-Committee will use to support environmental initiatives within our school. A huge thank you to everyone for contributing to this success! Your efforts in recycling have made a big difference to the environment! We would like also to say to a big thank you to Powys Recycling and ERP UK Ltd for organising this.
Dosbarth Un have been exploring their local area. The learners went on a welly walk to identify significant features of New Radnor, discussing their importance and how they contribute to a sense of belonging within the community. Using the photographs they took during the walk, the learners created their own maps of New Radnor. Some learners drew their maps, while others worked in a group using resources of their choice to design their map collaboratively. Everyone carefully considered the appearance of the significant features, including their size, colour and position. Bendigedig Dosbarth Un!
Diwrnod cyffrous arall! Another exciting day!
Elise, Ollie and Millie received responses to their formal letters!
Learners were thrilled to read these, and shared them with the class. Da iawn pawb, we are so pleased your efforts have been recognised!
Dosbarth Un had a lovely time celebrating St Dwynwen’s Day last week. We read the story of St Dwynwen and discussed why St Dwynwen’s day is celebrated in Wales. We made delicious heart biscuits to share together and decorated some hearts to create a school display.
Everyone had great fun at the Christmas Party this morning. There were some great dance moves. Nadolig Llawen pawb!
Dosbarth Un were excited to receive letters back from Santa yesterday. He was very impressed with all of their fantastic writing! Well done Dosbarth Un!
This week, Dosbarth Un moved onto learning about muscles! Our younger learners got hands-on by using their muscles to perform different exercises. They had great fun discussing which muscles were involved in each activity and how their bodies responded. Meanwhile, others took on the challenge of researching muscle facts and created some great group posters to share.
We are so proud of our learners who all participated in our performance of our annual Christmas Production! West End Theatre… Watch this space!
