Pontygwaith Primary clings to the side of the mountainside, high above the Rhondda Valley at the very top of the very top street. I had a great day, yesterday, telling stories, drawing and plotting new stories for my characters for the children to write after I’ve gone.

Year five had a hamster, which they said was a bit boring because it sleeps all day long, but year six had week old chicks! Very cute but apt to pooh all over your hands if you pick them up!
