Universal Primary Free School Meals Announcement
Tue 21 Jun 2022Dear Parent/Guardian,
Phased rollout of Primary Free School Meals for the youngest children from September 2022 onwards
From the new autumn term (Monday 5th September 2022) onwards all Reception children will be offered Free School Meals. From 1st January 2023 all Year 1 children will receive this offer and Year 2 children will receive the offer from 1st April 2023. We will be in further communication as the offer is rolled out. This is an important step in reaching the shared ambition of ensuring no child goes hungry while in school.
In response to the current rising cost-of-living, Welsh Government and Rhondda Cynon Taf CBC are committed to implementing this scheme quickly and would ask for your patience as we build catering capacity to ensure a successful phased implementation and work towards a whole school roll-out over the next three years.
In order for the council to prepare and cater for numbers, we would be very grateful if you would kindly complete the following and return by Monday 11th July 2022 - https://customerportal.rctcbc.gov.uk/freeschoolmealssurvey
Please be rest assured that if your child is currently in receipt of free school meals and/or any other associated benefits, these will not be affected.
Kind regardsAndrea Richards
Service Director, 21st Century Schools and Transformation

Eggstra Special Easter Egg Recycling Challenge
Thu 07 Apr 2022Can your school go the Eggstra mile this Easter and win the Easter Egg Waste Recycling Challenge?
It’s that time of year again, where we all receive lots of shiny chocolate eggs in lots of plastic and cardboard packaging - but how do you dispose of yours?
Lots of the foil, plastic and cardboard boxes will often end up in our landfill sites – this year Rhondda Cynon Taf Council is calling on all our schools to take up the Easter Egg Waste Challenge and have a greener Easter by recycling all their unwanted packaging (No chocolate though please).
The Council is encouraging all schools to get involved - the challenge is easy, simply collect as much of the foil, plastic or cardboard packaging as possible and the school with the highest recycling to pupil ratio wins the competition.
Prizes on offer -
First Prize £300
Second Prize £100
Third Prize £50
Please collect all items in normal clear recycling bags; closing date for the competition is Friday 6th May 2022.
