Croeso i Ysgol Hendre!
Welcome to our School
A warm and heartfelt welcome to our Hendre Family - Hendre Infants and Junior Schools. We are a welcoming, creative, innovative collaborating pair of schools, offering a range of exciting learning opportunities for you and your family.
Our schools are situated on the western outskirts of the town of Caerphilly. They stand on the main road that links the A470 to the Rhymney Valley, making them easily accessible from all surrounding areas. Our schools are predominantly English medium and they cover Progression Step 1, 2 and 3 of the new Curriculum for Wales. Hendre is in the very advantageous position of being in close proximity to St Cenydd Comprehensive School. This, along with the very close working links between all three schools, provides our children with a continuum of learning from 3 to 18.
Hendre is ‘our’ school and with this great sense of ownership and belonging comes a great sense of pride. We aim to create a happy and caring school where our children feel a sense of belonging, feel valued as both individuals and members of a community and learn to co-operate and collaborate with each other. We seek to foster in our children a sense of respect and pride for who they are, the world in which they live and all that they do, with the ultimate aim of producing well-rounded, emotionally secure, happy children who are confident and empowered to face the challenges that lie ahead in an ever-changing world.
We are excited to share our school with you and hope that you love it as much as we do.
