Dear Parents and Carers, Following the letter which was sent on Thursday 26th January, I am writing to confirm further details regarding the industrial action which has resulted in a school closure at Ysgol Bryn Castell on Wednesday 1st February 2023.

Packed lunches have been sent home with transport providers for those pupils who were in school today (31/01/2023) and who are in receipt of Free School Meals. If you have not received a packed lunch or have any queries then please do not hesitate to make contact directly with the school tomorrow.

Each pupil has also been offered an activity sheet which provides some tasks which they can complete during the school closure day if they wish. These activities are not compulsory and are not designed to replace teaching and learning activities, but may help support your child/ren during the day tomorrow. Our website also includes lots of hyperlinks to activities which can be accessed at: https://www.ysgolbryncastell.co.uk/general-links-1/

Ysgol Bryn Castell’s priority continues to be the health and wellbeing of our pupils and staff and we will continue to act in the best interests of your children as we move forward, together. Thank you for your support, encouragement and feedback.

Helen Ridout (Headteacher
