Welcome to Albany Primary School's website!


Welcome to our school website. We will continue to add new photo galleries and information to keep you up to date with what is happening at Albany.

All pupils should enjoy school life. It is our intention to create a very happy 'family school' where there is a sense of purpose and well-being, a place where children and adults are glad to be. Good behaviour is looked for, acknowledged and rewarded. Our intention is to develop a positive attitude to learning by consistently focusing on the child's strengths and achievements.

We hope that you and your children will be very happy as members of our school.

Surprise appearance on year 6 trip

Posted by: webmaster on 02/03/2010 09:26
On January 26th year 6 went on their educational visit to Cardiff Bay. We had a very enjoyable day looking at the innovative architecture on show at Cardiff Bay and some of the historic buildings of Cardiff Bay. The biggest surprise came though when class 14 spotted Ant and Dec arriving for the Britains Got Talent live auditions. Class 13 were also very lucky as they saw Simon Cowell arriving in his very expensive car. Mixing with celebrities was certainly a first for an Albany Primary School trip to the Bay. The photos of our visit will be added to the gallery section of the website soon.

Fundraising for Haiti

Posted by: webmaster on 02/03/2010 09:17
As a result of the terrible Earthquake in Haiti the children in Albany decided they would like to do some fundraising activities. In the week leading up to February Half term we had cake sales, a disco organised by the School Council and a 'Wear a hat for Haiti' day. Music club also performed songs on Albany Road and passers by were very generous with their donations. Thank you very much to all who contributed to these activites.

Exciting times in Albany

Posted by: webmaster on 09/09/2009 03:48
We are looking forward to another exciting year in Albany Primary School. Now we have the Foundation Phase successfully running and the new Pet's Corner under construction we are piloting a new skills based curriculum in Year 4 and Year 6. This involves a much more hands on approach to learning and provides the children with greater independence in their work. We are looking forward to seeing how successful the project is and hopefully implementing it in year's 3 and 5 as the year goes on.
