Pontybrenin Primary School

“To happily learn together in a fair and caring school

community, achieving our best at all times”.

Year Book 2011 - 2012

This book has been designed with the intention that

all your lovely memories of your primary school days

will be recorded for you to treasure in the future.

You won’t realise it now but when you grow up into

adults these photos will be very handy to embarrass

your friends on their wedding days!!

Many special moments have been captured throughout

the years you have been learning in Pontybrenin

Primary School and I have been proud to know you for

the last three years and to see you grow up as happy,

confident learners who have shown a genuine interest

in caring for all your friends and working hard. I have

had many funny and memorable times with you all

during the last three years – and you have been a credit to

your teachers as a year 6 cohort. I am expecting to hear

great things in the future!

I wish you all the very best when you move on to comprehensive school and

remember that every single one of you have a talent to show off to the world.

Believe in yourself, work hard and always look on the bright side of life because

you all have much to offer.

We have one last experience left for you – The end of year 6 Summer show!!! I

know Miss Jones, Mrs Rowe, Mr Bannister have a “Beetles” theme and script

that will have you mums and dads dancing in the isles of Penyrheol Theatre!!

Always remember if any of you get famous – it all started at Pontybrenin

Primary School!! It has been a pleasure being the headteacher of such energetic

and lovely children.

A word from your Head Teacher

“Good Luck!!”

Well Year 6, it’s that time of year again! Time

for you to leave us here at Pontybrenin and

spread your wings. I have many special and

funny memories of you all! Having had the

pleasure of teaching many of you twice, I feel

that as you leave Pontybrenin, I have been able

to see you grow and mature into responsible

children. It has been fantastic to be part of

your learning journey! I really feel that some of

you have learnt a lot about your own

personalities and how to respect others around

you. You are a great class of children and I will

miss you very much. Remember that life is what

you make it and nothing is ever out of reach if

you work hard enough! Reach for the stars and

always rise to a challenge! You have made me

laugh and smile so many times!! We wish you all

the best for your future! Don’t forget to come

back and visit us!!

Love Miss Jones & Miss Dolecki

Year 6 as it is time for you to leave us here at Pontybrenin my one wish

is that as you begin this new venture in your school career you treasure

and enjoy every moment of it, remembering always to give your best to be

your best. I have had the pleasure of teaching you all in year three and

now again in year 6 and I will always treasure the memories that I have

of you all. As the years have passed I have watched you grow into

mature, capable and trustworthy individuals whom I am incredibly proud

of. Always remember your ambition can take you places believe in yourself

because I always have and always will believe in you. I’ll miss you all

dearly and the laughter we have shared. I wish you every success in

comprehensive, come back and visit us!
