Last week Hazel, Rowan and Beech classes performed a song they had written for a story about the three rivers and the green man, with @sinfoniacymru in Theatr Brycheiniog. Hawthorn and Birch classes had made some of the set, and we all went along to watch. We had a great time!

This week pupils in Willow class went to the Foundry in town. We had drinks, cakes and comics, then Dean showed us around the music venue and recording studio. We loved it and can't wait to go back!
It was lovely to have Kath Davies @readysteadymus1 back at Penmaes to take a staff drumming workshop yesterday馃檪. Kath left us with lots of enthusiasm and resources, which we've already started to use in class.
Hawthorn and Beech classes have been getting into the Halloween spirit making witch faces and Halloween biscuits. They look amazing 馃檪
We were very lucky to have a visit from the lovely @CC_Brampton who came to share his love of stories with the pupils and read from his book Charlie Robonik. The children were hooked! There's a competition on his website too: ccbrampton.co.uk/

We are so excited to begin the new school year today! It's lovely to see everyone again, and an extra special welcome to our new learners and their families 馃檪
... and that's us finished for the year! Thank you to everyone involved with Ysgol Penmaes. Enjoy the summer and we'll see you in September!
As well as Karen retiring, Dawn, Emma H, Luci, Linda and Chrissie are also moving on to new adventures. Thank you all for being brilliant and lovely.
And if you ever need a map of Brecon, pop in and see Emma in @VisitBrecon 馃槈.
Our Executive Head, Karen Gittins is retiring at the end of this term to enjoy as well-earned rest (we can't see that happening!). Angharad Bryn-Jones will be our new Headteacher from September. As you can see, we shared the news in our local Papur Bro.
Ash and Sycamore classes have created a wheelbarrow display for the Royal Welsh Show competition, on the theme of Toy Story. If you're going to the show next week, you can find it in the horticultual tent. Da iawn Ash & Sycamore!
Thanks are in the next tweet!
Our first satellite class officially opened this week. Maple class is based at Crossgates Primary School near Llandrindod, and means that pupils with ALN can go to school closer to home, instead of having to travel all the way to Brecon each day.
