Dear Parents and Carers,

I am writing to remind everyone that Llangan Primary School is a nut-free school.

We have a number of pupils and members of staff who have severe nut allergies, and exposure to nuts can cause extremely serious reactions. For some members of our school community, this could quite literally be a matter of life or death.

We kindly ask that no food containing nuts is brought into school, including in lunch boxes. This includes peanuts, tree nuts, and products made with or containing nuts (such as chocolate spreads containing hazelnuts).

As a reminder, our existing policy states that children may bring only fruit or vegetables for morning snack. We would also ask that you are particularly mindful when preparing packed lunches, ensuring they are completely nut-free.

We know this requires extra care when shopping and preparing food, and we really appreciate your cooperation. By working together, we can help ensure that our school remains a safe, inclusive, and caring environment for everyone.

Thank you for your continued support in helping to keep Llangan the wonderful community that it is.

Kind regards,

Mr Griffiths

We are pleased to be working in partnership with Cardiff and Vale College to offer a Families Learning Together course at Llangan Primary School, focused on Understanding Our Emotions.

This free, interactive course is designed to support children and their families in exploring emotions in a positive, practical and engaging way. Through games, creative activities and storytelling, families will learn about different feelings and develop healthy strategies to understand and manage them together.

The course is open to children in Years 3, 4, 5 and 6, alongside their parents, carers or grandparents, and provides a valuable opportunity for families to learn side by side in a relaxed and welcoming environment. Sessions will focus on building confidence, improving communication and developing important social and emotional skills that can be used in everyday life.

By the end of the course, families will have created their own practical tools and strategies to help manage emotions at home and beyond. The sessions are designed to be inclusive, supportive and enjoyable for everyone involved.

The course will take place at Llangan Primary School on Wednesday 14th January at 9.00am. Families who wish to attend are asked to sign and return the slip to school.

If you would like more information, please contact families@cavc.ac.uk.

We look forward to welcoming families to this exciting opportunity to learn, reflect and grow together.

We’ve now added Party Day on the last day of term! Children are welcome to wear party clothes or their own clothes, as we’ll be enjoying a whole-school buffet lunch in the hall, kindly provided by our school kitchen team. 🥪🍎✨

We’ve also indicated the days when children may wear Christmas jumpers — on all other days, please continue with normal school uniform.

Thank you so much for your support during this very busy (and festive!) time of year. 🎅🌟

We are excited to invite all parents and families to our Jump Out Day Event, held in the lunchroom at 2:10pm.

This special celebration is a chance for pupils to share the incredible work they have completed throughout their termly enquiry. Children will present the outcomes of their learning, showing how their ideas have developed and the creative ways in which they have explored their enquiry.

Jump Out Day gives real purpose to the children’s learning and offers families the opportunity to see their progress, creativity, and effort come together in one meaningful final piece.

We look forward to welcoming you.
