Welcome to Porthcawl Primary School   

           
Croeso i Ysgol Gynradd Porthcawl.

Welcome to the Porthcawl Primary School website!  In our site you will

find details of our school, children and staff, information about the work

we have done and the visits made, school newsletters and diary dates

along with plenty of interesting photographs taken in and around our school.

We hope that you enjoy looking at the website and remember to come back

as it will be regularly updated. 

 

             

 

 

We are a mixed school for boys and girls between the ages of 3 to 11 years

which includes a Foundation Phase Area admitting pupils of nursery age.

 

We are situated just outside of the popular victorian seaside town of Porthcawl

which has a variety of beaches, a good range of shops, restaurants and

amenities, a nearby nature reserve and a fun fair!

 

We are a small and friendly primary school set in extensive grounds. We

have fantastic facilities for sport, an outdoor classroom, a conservation

area and we are in the process of building an allotment. In addition, we

have three large separate play areas.

 

               

 

We want everyone in our school community to feel cared for and supported

whilst achieving their full potential. We believe strongly in developing the

whole child and therefore focus on relationships and wellbeing whilst

continuing to achieve excellent standards. We were pleased that our

recent Inspection highlighted the school's success in these areas.

We feel that close and friendly links between teachers and parents are an

essential part of your child's development.  Our aim is for the community to

become involved in the life of the school whenever they are able and we

look forward to everyone working happily together during your children's

time at Porthcawl Primary School.

 

                    

 

 

If you would like to find out more about us please feel free to make an

appointment to visit.  We are extremely proud of our school and love to

show people around.

 

We look forward to seeing you soon.

 

Many Thanks
