WHAT'S NEW AT PENYGAWSI?

• Sports Day Update

  Tue 09 Jun 2026

  Unfortunately, the weather forecast over the next 24 - 48 hours remains very unpredictable. The field is currently wet and would be unsafe for the children to run on, or even sit on between races, and rain is expected throughout the day tomorrow.

  As a result, we have made the difficult decision to cancel once again. We are very sorry, as we know this is not the news that children or parents wanted to hear, but unfortunately the weather is beyond our control.

  To try and avoid further disappointment, we have reviewed the calendar and identified one final date: Wednesday 8th July (same times). This will, of course, be weather permitting – so we will all be hoping for the right balance of sunshine (not too hot… typical British weather!).

  Please note that if we are unable to go ahead on this date, we will not be able to rearrange again. However, if the weather improves during the final week, teachers will ensure that children still have the opportunity to take part in some fun sporting activities within their classes.

  Thank you for your continued understanding and support - we truly appreciate it and will keep you updated.

• CANCELLED - Sports Day

  Tue 02 Jun 2026

  Dear Parents/Carers,

  Unfortunately, we are unable to go ahead with tomorrow’s Sports Day. The field is currently very wet, and with further rain forecast for today and early tomorrow morning, conditions are not suitable.

  This decision has been made with health and safety as our priority. The ground is too wet for safe participation, and there is nowhere suitable for the children to sit.

  We will now rearrange Sports Day for Wednesday 10th June, using the same times, weather permitting. However, if we are unable to hold it on this date, we will organise an ad hoc Sports Day for the children only (without spectators) once the field is dry and conditions allow.

  We are very sorry for any disappointment this may cause. We know that Sports Day is one of the highlights of the year for pupils, staff and parents alike. Unfortunately, the weather is beyond our control, and we must ensure the safety of all involved.

  Thank you for your understanding.

  Kind regards,

  Mrs Black
