Croeso i Dosbarth Eira!
Welcome to our class page. You will find useful information about our class here:
We are taught by Mrs Dowd.
We have P.E/CoJo every Wednesday so please wear kit on this day and have appropriate footwear. Alternatively, you can bring kit into school on a Monday and leave it hanging on your peg until Friday.
We encourage you to bring water to school in an appropriate bottle. Water fountains are available for children to refill their bottles. Please wear appropriate clothing for the weather (e.g. wet and/or cold = coat, feet covered. Hot = sun hat, sun cream etc).
Please ensure you connect to our class SeeSaw as we will be posting pictures of the children and their work, as well as updating you with important information!
