School Eisteddfod

To celebrate St David’s Day this year Ysgol Sant Elfod would like all pupils to create an Art or Craft piece specif-ic to their year group’s theme;

Blwyddyn 3- Symbols of Wales Blwyddyn 4 – Castles and Dragons Blwyddyn 5 –Welsh Music and Musicians Blwyddyn 6 – Sport in Wales

The participation from all pupils last year was fantastic and we are aiming to be even better this year! Any and all ideas are welcome including poetry, 3D, 2D, photography, collage, stories, songs, paintings, mosaic, ICT.

Please ensure your child’s name, class and house is written on the back of their creation and that all entries are in school by Monday 2nd March. Diolch yn fawr iawn a phob lwc! On March 5th the pupils are to wear red or traditional

Welsh costume.

Year 6 pupils have a great time at Glan Llyn. We look forward to hearing all about their adventures when they return to school later today.

Friday March 6th / Dydd Gwener Mawrth 6ed We invite all the pupils to celebrate in our World Book Day by coming to school dressed as a character from a book. Dressing up is optional and if your child prefers, they can come to school in non-uniform. We will be holding a ‘book swap shop’ – pupils may bring in a book (in good condition and suitable for juniors) to swap. During the day we’ll be celebrating our love for reading and books! On World Book Day your child will receive a £1 Book Token. It can be used in participating bookshops/supermarkets to redeem against any book worth £2.99 or alternatively can be exchanged for one of six specially published £1 books. Further information about World Book Day can be found on www.worldbookday.com
