Victoria CP School is excited to be the host venue for one of the upcoming Afro Hair Care workshops, organised by Done Together CIC and supported by Dare2Dream Hair Salon and Wrexham University. The session is completely free to attend and is aimed at everyday people — parents, foster carers, care workers, trainee and established hair dressers and anyone providing day-to-day support to someone with afro-textured hair.

Each workshop is designed to give people practical knowledge, confidence and reassurance when caring for afro-textured hair. To book a free place, please click here – https://buytickets.at/donetogethercic

Sessions will include:

• Simple explanations of hair, including porosity, moisture and texture
• A practical session where participants will make a low-cost, natural hair mask using everyday food ingredients
• Demonstrations of protective hairstyles
• A live Q&A
• A take-home guide and a personal hair care diary

The aim is simple: to close the knowledge gap for anyone who combs, styles or supports someone with textured hair across home, school, health and community settings.

Good evening,
Just a reminder that Safer Streets is still operational.
This means that no cars should be driven up Poyser Street between 8.30 – 9.15am and 2.30 – 3.30pm. The police also visited me today and asked me to remind you that no-one should park on the yellow zig-zag lines until after 4.30pm. If you are picking children up from clubs, please make sure you park responsibly and legally.

Please continue to work with us and the local community to put our children’s safety first.

Thank you.

Good morning!

For any parents/carers who are at the beginning of their Welsh language learning journey, and are interested in giving it a go, here are some simple greetings and phrases to start with.

I really hope that all parents of children from Year 1-6 have booked a parents evening slot with their child’s class teacher. Sadly, we are seeing a decline in parents attending these critical sessions. Parents attending parents’ evening is crucial, especially in the Autumn Term and attendance brings a wide range of benefits for both the child and the school community.

•Provides a dedicated time for teachers and parents to discuss the child’s progress, strengths, and areas for improvement.

•Helps build trust and mutual understanding between home and school.

•Parents gain insights into their child’s academic and social development.

•Enables parents to reinforce learning at home and address any challenges early.

•Shows children that their parents value education, which can boost motivation and self-esteem.

•Encourages parents to become more involved in school activities and decision-making.

•Teachers can share concerns about learning difficulties, behaviour, or social interactions.

•Parents and teachers can collaborate on strategies or referrals for additional support.

•A chance to acknowledge and celebrate the child’s progress and accomplishments.

•Positive reinforcement from both parents and teachers can be very encouraging for the child.

•Encourages a sense of partnership between families and the school.

•Helps create a more inclusive and supportive environment for all students.

We always encourage parents to bring their children to these sessions as children see their parents and teachers working together, reinforcing the importance of education and it always boosts their self esteem!

Look forward to seeing you.
