Croeso cynnes nôl i wefan Dosbarth Ceiriog!
I’m Mr. Wyeth, the Year 2 and 3 class teacher, and I’m looking forward to an exciting year of learning ahead.

Our class ethos is built on the Sant Dunawd Learning Super Powers – helping our learners to collaborate, reflect, persevere, stay curious and show resilience.

The children’s learning and wellbeing are supported brilliantly by Miss Parr. Every Tuesday, the class takes part in Forest School, led by Mrs. Johnson, where they explore and build their connection with the natural world.

Our INSPIRE Inquiries

This term, we’re starting an exciting historical journey to explore The Romans and Celts and uncover how their presence shaped local areas like Bangor-on-Dee. By investigating what life was like before and during the Roman era, we will deepen our connection to our locality and develop a sense of belonging to the rich heritage of our community.

Our lessons reflect Ysgol Sant Dunawd’s vision of Belong, Believe, Become. Through teamwork and shared exploration, children will feel a sense of belonging as they work together to uncover fascinating historical connections. By encouraging curiosity and confidence, they will believe in their ability to ask meaningful questions and solve problems. This will help them become the best version of themselves—engaged, informed, and proud learners who connect the past to their present and future.

Homework

At Ysgol Sant Dunawd, we believe in a little and often and that practice makes progress! The children have weekly spellings to practise on Spelling Shed (to complete at least 5 games) and weekly times tables practice on Times Tables Rock Stars (at least 10 minutes). We also encourage the children to read a few pages of their reading book each night, aloud to an adult (they can also read on Oxford Owl).
