Ysgol Morfa Nefyn

Nursery Class

If your child is aged 3 to 4 between 1 September and 31 August during the academic year and you would like to take advantage of part-time Nursery Education, you should contact the Headteacher as soon as possible. Five afternoon sessions are held between 1:00 and 3:00. A teacher or assistant will receive the children at 1:00pm and will then escort them to the school gate at 3:00pm.

Full-time education

Children are admitted to the school full-time in September following their fourth birthday. Advertisements are usually placed in the papers. Priority is given to children who live within the catchment area of Ysgol Morfa. The local authority is responsible for considering requests from outside the catchment area.

School transfer

When the children are 8 years of age at the end of Year 3, they transfer to Year 4 at Ysgol Nefyn. You will receive an Information Handbook from Ysgol Nefyn during the Summer Term. There will be an opportunity for the children to visit the school and spend a day there.

The Nursery School ('Cylch Meithrin')

There is a close and effective contact between the Cylch Meithrin and Ysgol Morfa Nefyn. As well as creating a close community in the village, this ensures that the children transfer confidently. The Cylch’s leader and the Foundation Phase teacher in the school cooperate closely to ensure outstanding education.

Taking your child to school

You may drop off your child at the main school entrance, where a member of staff will be present to supervise the children from 8:35am. Children will be released to parents at classroom doors at 3:00pm.

You will be given an opportunity in September to submit a list of adults who will collect your child from school. Children will only be released to adults noted on the list. We ask you to provide a letter or phone the school if any transport / collection arrangements for your child differ to the usual arrangements.
