Welcome from the Headteacher

Dear Parents and Carers,

Croeso y Ysgol Trefaldwyn. We would like to give you a warm welcome and thank you for taking the time to visit our school website! We hope that you find the information both interesting and informative, however if you have any queries or would like to request additional information or arrange a visit, please do not hesitate to contact us!

At Montgomery Church in Wales school, we pride ourselves on our sense of family and community. Every child is welcomed into our school where we enable them the skills and resilience to flourish. Children here thrive on a rich and balanced new curriculum that embraces the links we have with our local and wider communities. We are proud of our Welsh roots and provide a wealth of opportunities for children to learn about their Welsh heritage, along with learning the Welsh language too.

Nestled in the centre of the historic market town of Montgomery, we make the most of our surroundings. With views from the school across to Corndon Hill from the back, and views of Montgomery Castle to the front, we really are in an idyllic location. Our school grounds offer a wealth of learning opportunities too, with a forest school area, a polytunnel for growing vegetables and our very own apple trees to enable us to pick our own fruit.

Here at Montgomery CiW school, we nurture the talents of all of our children, enabling success in all areas of the curriculum and beyond. We know each child individually and place great importance on the value of building positive relationships. By knowing our children well, we are able to support them in developing lifelong skills and qualities such as confidence, resilience, patience and tolerance as our children become successful citizens of the future.

Our pupil voice is something that we value highly, with all children in the school from years two to six being a member of one of our pupil voice groups. This ensures that our children's voices can be heard as they shape a school that they want to belong to and learning about matters that are important to them. By placing the children at the heart of all we do allows us to provide a school rich in enthusiasm, fun and high engagement whilst ensuring challenge to enable all pupils to be the very best that they can be.

As a Church in Wales school our links to St Nicholas Church and the Diocese of St Asaph are important to us. Our children learn important values such as generosity, friendship, courage and perseverance through our 'Roots and Fruits' collective worship. Children in our Worship committee meet regularly to ensure that we are upholding our Christian values and ethos.

Finally, we believe that when we work together with our parents and carers, we can truly provide the very best for the children. Communication really is key, so if at any point you wish to discuss something, please do get in touch, as we will be more than happy to help!

When your child joins us at Montgomery CiW school, they are embarking on a learning journey of creativity, positivity and happiness as they develop into confident, ambitious, ethical, creative contributors of the 21st century.

We look forward to welcoming you to our school family.

With very best wishes

Miss S. Brian
