We are proud to announce that we have managed to maintain our ‘5’ score, the top rating you can achieve! Our report states that our food hygiene and safety procedures are very good, as is our structural compliance (kitchen cleanliness, layout, condition, etc.). The inspector was 'highly confident' in our management and control procedures. We received no recommendations for improvement.
This now means we can reapply for our ‘Elite’ rating as we have scored ‘5’ on successive inspections over many years.
Well done to our cook, Alix, for maintaining such good standards and to everyone else involved in supporting her role in the kitchen.

Both Preschool and Toddlers have been making paper aeroplanes and after FINALLY there being a break in the rain, Preschool managed to get outside to try their paper planes out!
Of course, while outside they couldn't resist a quick runaround and play with the 'loose parts'.
To see photos of the planes in flight, visit the photo album here...
Children in Preschool celebrated this event by making some lovely cards, which you should have received by now!

From 1st March 2021, it became illegal to smoke/vape on hospital grounds, play areas and school grounds, including day nurseries such as Little Chums.
Just recently we have seen some parents vaping in our car park and on at least one occasion at our entrance doorway.
For the health interests of all, please refrain from smoking/vaping on our premises. We do not want to embarrass either you or ourselves by having to ask in person.
Please pass on this message to all that drop-off or collect your child(ren), including Grandparents or other family members or friends.
Thank you for your cooperation.
This achievement highlights our commitment to promoting the Welsh language and creating a welcoming, bilingual environment for children.
Our Development Officer at Clybiau Plant said...
"I would also like to say how impressed I am by your dedication and the consistently high-quality evidence, planning, and commitment you have shown towards the Welsh Promise. It has been genuinely refreshing to see, and I am delighted to have you throughout this process."
We are now moving forward in March and intend to work towards the silver award.

For your safety, the steps up to the Tots room door and the path around to Baby room door will remain closed for the rest of the week. Please drop-off and/or collect from the main door and please be patient while we bring your child to you.
For the next few days, please drive *very slowly* on the driveway and take care walking in the car park. DO NOT walk on the cobbles, these are not treated as the salt has no effect because it falls in the gaps!
The forecast for the next few days seems to be more of the same cold weather, including a warning about snow overnight Thursday into Friday. We will keep you updated using our website and social media pages about how we are affected if any snow arrives. If snow does arrive, we will review early on Friday whether we can safely use the cars to transport children to and from New Inn School.
If at all possible for the rest of the week, please collect your child(ren) a little earlier, particularly on Thursday if it begins to snow, so that staff and children can travel home safely.
