My name is Oliver West and I'm the inclusion officer at Scarlets Rugby. We currently have three ICC's up and running two within Carmarthenshire and a newly established one in Pembrokeshire that is starting up next Tuesday (21st Jan 2025) in Pembrokeshire College 4-4.50pm. This club will run every Tuesday (term-time only)

ICC stands for inclusive community club - giving anyone aged 6-16 (children with ALN/disabilities and their friends/siblings) the opportunity to engage in extra-curricular clubs.

Co-op Local Community Fund

Please Support The Friends of Ysgol Harri Tudur/Henry Tudor School

The Friends of Ysgol Harri Tudur/Henry Tudor School have been selected by Co-op as a recipient of their charitable Local Community Fund initiative. This is similar to that run by Tesco with their community fund, where we received £1500 to assist with the breakfast club. The Co-op fund works slightly differently; you need to be a Co-op member (£1) and download their app; if you then select the Community tab you can see the causes - select The Friends of the School.
Monies raised will help continue the breakfast club into 2025. The notification message from Co-op is repeated below.

Congratulations! The Friends of Ysgol Harri Tudur/Henry Tudor School has been chosen to be part of the next round of the Co-op Local Community Fund (Cause ID: 87323)

The funding round will start on Sunday 20 October 2024 and will run for 12 months until 19 October 2025. During this time, Co-op Members will be able to choose you as their cause, the more members who choose you, the more money you’ll receive.

The Co-op invests profits back into communities. By becoming a member you can choose a cause; the total amount each cause receives depends upon how many members have chosen them. As such, please sign up and select The Friends of Ysgol Harri Tudur/Henry Tudor School as your cause!

Understanding the Symptoms of iGAS and Scarlet Fever

9th December 2022 16:09

Information for Parents/Carers

Awareness of Scarlet Fever and Streptococcal Disease

Whilst there is currently a heightened awareness and an increase in cases of Scarlet Fever and Streptococcal disease, we are asking parents to be vigilant for the signs and symptoms. Parents/carers of unwell children should seek medical advice for diagnosis and treatment.

Good hand hygiene and avoidance of spread of respiratory secretions (as per influenza- “catch it, bin it, kill it”) can help to prevent the spread of infection.

Exclusion Period

A Learner with scarlet fever must not attend school for 24 hours after the commencement of appropriate antibiotic treatment.

Signs and symptoms of scarlet fever - this infection mostly affects children aged under 10 years, older children are also susceptible to streptococcal sore throats but may not have the rash of scarlet fever.

Scarlet fever is an infectious disease caused by group A streptococcus (GAS) bacteria. It is highly infectious and can be caught through direct contact with an infected person or through the air via droplets from coughs or sneezes.

The characteristic symptom of scarlet fever is a widespread, fine pink-red rash that feels like sandpaper to touch. Other symptoms include a high temperature, a flushed face and a red, swollen tongue. Treatment is straightforward and usually involves a course of penicillin antibiotics.

Complications of scarlet fever and streptococcal infection

Most cases of scarlet fever cause no complications, especially if the condition is properly treated. However, complications in the early stages of the disease can include ear infection, throat abscess, sinusitis, pneumonia and meningitis.

Very rare complications include rheumatic fever, kidney damage, liver damage, bone infection, blood poisoning and toxic shock syndrome which can be life-threatening.

Invasive disease may occur without a person having had scarlet fever or sore throat first. Early signs of invasive disease include: high fever, severe muscle aches, local muscle tenderness, or redness at the site of a wound. If there are any concerns about invasive disease, then urgent medical advice must be sought.

Estyn Report of Visit

Ysgol Harri Tudur/Henry Tudor School January 2022

The Governing Body and Headteacher of Ysgol Harri Tudur/ Henry Tudor School are delighted to share the outcome of the school's recent monitoring Estyn visit in January. Ysgol Harri Tudur/ Henry Tudor School is very proud of both our staff and our pupils and the achievements that we have made together since the 2018 core inspection. We would also like to thank many of our parents and carers and the wider community for their ongoing support.

Ysgol Harri Tudur is judged to have made sufficient progress in relation to the recommendations following the most recent core inspection. As a result, Her Majesty’s Chief Inspector of Education and Training in Wales is removing the school from the list of schools requiring significant improvement.'' ( Estyn 28th Feb 2022)

School Site

Parking and Dropping Off/Picking Up

All drivers are requested to use the designated Drop Off/Pick Up and parking sites whilst on the school site.

Please do not use the One Way road outside school for dropping off or picking up. This road is for designated vehicles only including our school buses. Please follow the instructions on the No Entry signs and use the correct spaces.

Please do not park in the Bus Lanes; these are for buses only. Parking in them is causing traffic disruption and is a potential risk to pupils and staff alike.

And please do not park on the pavements; this creates risk to all, but in particular makes access very difficult for our pupils who need to use mobility assistance and those pupils who have visibility impairment.

Drivers are requested to respect local housing estates and avoid temporarily parking in residential areas.
