Dear Parent/Carer,
RE: Schools re-opening
Since the Welsh Government announced that schools will be re-opening, we have been planning for what this will look like. The “Check in; Catch up; Prepare for summer and September” programme is designed to give all pupils an opportunity to ‘check in’ with their teachers regarding their home learning and ‘catch up’ with their friends. This will prepare all pupils mentally, emotionally and practically for the ‘new normal’ in September.
Our decision to invite pupils into school will be based on what is safe, practical and directly linked to the existing scientific and medical information available. We are currently installing new signage and controlled measures in school to adhere to the Welsh Government Operational and Learning guidance. Following an analysis of the school site and classroom space and considering the impact of social distancing, we have concluded that the class size capacity for this summer term, will be capped at a maximum of 8 pupils per class.
To reduce social mixing, our small classes will be kept within a ‘bubble’ meaning these pupils will stay together during the school day. In order to limit contact with other pupils we will also be having staggered arrival and departure times. To reduce contact between pupils, we will not be providing food. The school day will run between 9am to 12:30pm. I can confirm that we will not be expecting students to wear full uniform, pupils do not have to wear blazers or ties. If pupils have outgrown their white shirt, trousers or skirts, pupils can either wear their PE kit to school or a white top, black jumper and black bottoms (although no jeans will be allowed). For this period we are also relaxing our rule on footwear.
As no more than a third of pupils will be in school at any one time, we have allocated specific days for your child to come to school with only one year group in school each day. We are planning to welcome pupils into school as follows:
• Yr 10 (Monday and Thursday) • Yr 9 (Tuesday) • Yr 8 (Wednesday) • Yr 7 (Friday) • Yr 11 will be invited to individual transition meetings
Currently the Local Authority are providing a limited provision for transport to school. A number of pupils who live under two miles from school and who use school funded transport will not have this provision available to them at this time.
With a reduced number of pupils in school, this does mean that home learning will continue and pupils will be expected to work at home when they are not in school. The time they are in school will provide your child with support for the work they are completing at home.
We will be distributing a further survey to help us plan effectively and efficiently for your child’s return towards the end of this week. If we can encourage you to complete it, it will help us with our preparation. I will contact you again next week to provide your child with specific instructions regarding their return to school.
Please stay safe and thank you for your continued support.
Yours faithfully,
Gerard McNamara

Just a few of the very kind messages from parents/carers to our hardworking staff. Thank you, they are very
much appreciated: [Grab your your [Grab

Home Learning
Please see the school website for Home Learning work
Submission of Home Learning
We appreciate that some of our pupils are completing their work on paper rather than electronically and this is completely fine. Can we ask when the work is returned to school and given into the member of staff in reception that the name of the pupil and the teachers/subject the work is for is written on the work. This is just to ensure that the work is able to get to the appropriate staff member as quickly as possible.
Home Learning Award
As you may be aware, the first three weeks since launching these home learning awards has passed and therefore, we are currently in the process of identifying those pupils who will be receiving their certificates as part of our Home Learning Award
This first award is the Novice award - Certificates will be awarded to those pupils achieving within the top 20% of points awarded on Classcharts for the last three weeks of home learning (Together with the successful completion of their projects)
These certificates will be sent out towards the end of this week!
Remember you and your child are able to access Classcharts regularly to see the achievement points on your child’s account. Please continue to praise them on their efforts and engagement. If you do not have access to your account, please don’t hesitate to contact the school at [email protected].
Please encourage your child to try their best!

@Drama_PA_BFS
As a Drama Department we encourage pupils to view as much Live Theatre as possible during this time. This is where pupils will enhance their knowledge and understanding of performance & technical aspects of a production. Here are a few you can stream to your Home!
Barber Shop Chronicles – 14th May
A Streetcar Named Desire – 21st May
Practical Activities/Competitions for Key Stage 3 & 4
Monologue – Drama – Covid-19 feelings; Do you know what it feel is like to have a family member on the front line? Do you know what it feels like waking up everyday worried about your mother being at risk? I have to deal with it; my mum does a full day’s work as a key worker helping out with covid-19 patients. Some days, I’m stressing about how my mum is doing at work, and other days I’m so proud of her for being there for others at risk. Days in lockdown have been very boring to say the least; hearing the news and doing the same thing over and over again isn’t fun. I’ve seen a different side of me that I’ve never knew before... It’s a very unsettling time for all, but we have just got to push through it and make a difference. We can fight the virus and make the world happy again! We can see our family and friends again!
The Drama Department continues to receive excellent work. Pupils wrote Monologues about their time in Lockdown & we have seen some brilliant performances this week in costume, with some incorporating lighting & sound.

Music
Example of an excellent evaluation and comparison this week from Cerys Warren: I have found two examples of rap pieces of music. These pieces are “deathbed (coffee for your head)” by Powfu and “A place for my head” by Linkin Park. I would say that the rap in Deathbed without a shadow of a doubt, is slower than the rap in a place for my head. Similarly, my rap was the same tempo as deathbed, and I have learnt that this tempo works most successfully, and I am most confident when using this tempo as I don’t have much experience in rapping unlike Mike Shinoda from Linkin Park....
… I believe rhyme is an important part of rap or any pieces of music within that genre. In comparison, I think that these two artists and their pieces of music were more fluent than mine because they practised hundreds of times before their compositions. They also have more knowledge of words than me, such as Eminem. Eminem read the dictionary every day to learn new words to use in his performances. This is truly incredible, and I believe he is such an inspiration!
The Brynmawr Feel-good Playlist
Here’s some more examples of great songs to get you motivated:
Miss Harris- Mine would have to be anything from a musical, my faves are Phantom of the Opera, Les Mis, Book of Mormon, Hairspray and Grease Obvs! Why? Because I act them out as I’m singing them and get completely lost in the moment!!
Mr A Williams- ‘Somebody to love’ by Queen.
Mrs Lake- So many for different reasons! I can’t pick one as my brain is singing several! The three songs in my head at the moment are Belinda Carlisle ‘Runaway Horses’, Nenah Cherry ‘Manchild’ and Dolly Parton ‘9-5’.
Mrs Thomas- ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ by Queen. Every time I hear it, I just have to sing along, and it always makes me feel better, good about myself and the world. How can you not feel good when you are belting out all the different vocal lines, head banging to the sudden change to rock and the awesome guitar solo, as well as imitating all the different vocal styles?! I love how visionary it was for the time and how it has lasted the test of time – the mix of styles, the fusion of operatic and rock, the changes of pace, the vocals, the guitar solo and I love the gong at the end, which is just left to resonate and fade away. Whenever it is played, I just have to sing along no matter where I am (making sure to do all the different voices and styles). Mr W Williams- ‘Together in Electric Dreams’, by Phil Oakley Bit of a singalong.
Miss Korpacka- When I am not feeling well, I like to listen to R.E.M- ‘Shiny, Happy People’. It makes me happy.

PE Parent/Pupil Newsletter This week our KS3 pupils have been busy researching a balanced diet and creating (and cooking) wonderful menus for athletes as part of their Olympic Games project – lots of great work received and delicious looking meals sent in over the past week. Examples of this work can be found on our social media accounts. Year 9 GCSE PE pupils have finished their work researching and identifying barriers to participation for minority groups within and society and looking at initiatives and policies aimed at reducing these barriers. Year 10 students have reached the finishing line of their PFP planning, a huge well done to for all their hard work! Dylan Rowson of Year 9 was the GCSE Prize Question winner this week to further extend the lead BUT with six weeks left of the Summer Term, there are still plenty of points to be won by both year groups so it is all to play for! Home learning can and does present many different challenges for each of our pupils and we are especially proud of all their hard work, independence and resilience in overcoming many of these new challenges – a huge well done to all and keep it up! *If any pupil is having difficulty accessing or submitting the work please do not hesitate to get in touch by contacting the school or email to: [email protected]
Youth Sports Trust – National School Sport Week (20th - 26th June)
Each day next week we will be posting challenges and activities for pupils to try at home or in their local area as part of the National School Sports Week 2020 – we will be posting these on our social media accounts at 10am every day and they will replace our usual fitness and fundamental sessions that week. We hope that lots of our pupils will get involved and share their efforts!
As mentioned in last week’s newsletter, we are going to attempt a ‘Virtual Sportsday’.
There are four events that pupils will be able to enter – two ‘track’ events (sprint & endurance type events) and two ‘field’ events (throw & jump).
Pupils can choose how many events they would like to enter. This week we have included instructions of how to complete and enter our two track events: The Goal-2-Goal Sprint and the 100-Stair Climb. In next week’s newsletter we will feature the field events. ALL ENTRIES MUST BE RECEIVED BY FRIDAY JULY 10TH This will enable us to then go through the entries and put together the finals which will be shown via the social media pages on Friday 17th July. A virtual sportsday is a first for the department but we feel it is definitely worth attempting! We hope all pupils will enter at least one of the events in order to make it a success and ensure we have a winning house for Sportsday 2020. - All entries will receive 3 Classchart points. - All entries will receive 2 house points. - Finalists will receive an extra 3-8 house points depending on their final positions Videos can be sent by:
