Welcome to Penybont Primary School

Croeso,

Penybont Primary School is a community primary school set in the town of Bridgend. We have over 340 pupils on roll, and we cater for children from the ages of 3 to 11 in our non-selective, co-educational, day school.

We pride ourselves on being a lively and exciting school for pupils and their families. We believe in involving parents in the education of their children and always seek to develop strong, positive relationships with you. We need your support, interest and co-operation to make sure that your child’s years with us are happy and fulfilling.

We are an extremely busy school and seek to provide many opportunities for educational visits and experiences that enrich the curriculum. In addition, there are many extracurricular clubs for the children to join as they progress through the school.

The positive ethos, excellent behaviour and committed staff culminate in excellent results throughout the school.

If you need it, there is also after school childcare provision (subject to available places) on site at very competitive rates. Children can be left with us for breakfast from 8.15am (free) and can be collected as late as 5.05pm.

Should you need to discuss any aspect of your child’s education please contact the school office to arrange an appointment with your child’s teacher or the Headteacher.

We will do all we can to ensure a successful education in the most important years of your child’s life.

Kind regards

Mr. P. Eyre (Chair of Governors) and Mr. R. Owen (Headteacher)

Request of Interest from the Mayor of Bridgend

The Mayor of Bridgend Town Council, Councillor Ian Williams, is hoping to plan a “Colour Run“ on Monday 5th May (May Day Bank Holiday) to raise much needed funds for his chosen charity Y-Bont. 

The event will take place within the grounds of Heronsbridge School and will cost £4 per person for entry with all proceeds going to the charity. In order to assess if this is viable, the Mayor is trying to establish how many people are likely to attend to enable him to order the necessary items.

We will not be holding a colour run ourselves this year, so if you would like to take part in this fun event, this is your opportunity!

If you think you would like to take part, please can you complete the 2 question form via the link, indicating your interest, and the number of people likely to participate. https://form.jotform.com/250922807664058 

Please note, this does not commit you to participating, but will provide an overview for planning.  T

his is not a Penybont School event, but we will help the Mayor as much as possible and pass on our knowledge of hosting such events. 

Many thanks,

Mr Owen
