Whole School trip to Folly farm
Mon 20 May 2024Dear Parents,
We are looking to arrange a whole school trip to Folly Farm on Monday July 1st. Previously, a trip like this would be heavily subsidised by the school. Unfortunately, due to cuts in funding, we will not be able to do that this year.
We need to have a fairly accurate idea of numbers to be able to cost the trip. Entrance to Folly Farm is £7.50 and the cost of the bus will be a maximum of £15 but this will depend on numbers. We aren’t allowed to make a profit on school trips so any charge would be influenced by the number of pupils attending.
In order to have definite numbers, we ask for a £10 deposit per family and could we please be informed of any pupils definitely NOT attending. Deposits are non-refundable, must be paid online and will need to be paid by Friday June 7th to guarantee a place.

Home to School transport Policy Consultation
Fri 19 Jan 2024The Council agreed to carry out a consultation to review its current Home to School Transport provision for children and young people in Rhondda Cynon Taf. The proposal sets out a new Home to School Transport Policy, which maintains certain discretionary transport provision and provide mainstream English, Welsh and Faith primary school, secondary school and college transport in line with relevant statutory distance criteria. Any new policy would be implemented from the start of the 2025/2026 academic year.
The consultation originally ran from 27th November 2023 until 5pm 8th January 2024.
The Council recognises the significance of the proposal for pupils who use and will use home to school transport now or in the future, and the extended consultation provides a further opportunity for those potentially impacted to take part in the consultation. The Council has therefore taken the decision to extend the consultation for a further three week period running from Thursday 18th January 2024 until 5pm Thursday 8th February 2024.
The details of the proposal and the opportunity to respond to the consultation can be found at: Consultation on the Council's Home to School Transport Policy | Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council (rctcbc.gov.uk)
There is no need for anyone who has previously taken part in this consultation to submit a further response unless they wish to do so.
