Headteacher’s
Welcome
The London Welsh School is a small
and friendly school based in Hanwell,
in the borough of Ealing, West London.
We teach through the medium of
Welsh and English with our pupils
becoming fully bilingual by year 6.
Being bilingual makes it easier to
acquire a 3rd or 4th language.
We are an independent school, proud of our unique history;
we are also a reflective school, evolving to meet the needs
of the future. Through self-evaluation - the staff, Board of
Directors, parents and supporters of the school all share
the goal of maintaining high educational standards.
We are proud of the achievements of our pupils, whether
academic, cultural or personal. By participating in
community events in Hanwell and beyond, there is a sense
of belonging to a Welsh speaking and wider Welsh
community, whether in London or Wales.
Working together with a range of partners, we deliver the
new Curriculum for Wales in a nurturing, encouraging, safe
environment.
We hope you enjoy your journey through our website.
Welcome from the
Board,
The London Welsh School offers so many opportunities for
children. I know this as a parent and
now as a governor. It is a wonderfully happy school where
children thrive in whichever area they
excel or are interested in. This is an excellent beginning for
your child’s education - they receive
much individual attention with teaching tailored to their
needs.
The children are happy and safe with our experienced and
caring staff. We see the children growing in confidence by
taking part in concerts and the Urdd Eisteddfod and, of
course, they have the best of both worlds, - a homely Welsh
school within bustling London and all that the city has to
offer.
A top hat to it all is the visit to the
Urdd Centre in Llangrannog at the
end of the summer term.
This is a visit for the whole family
and so much fun for all.
Come and visit to see for yourself.
With best wishes
Glenys Roberts
Chair of Governors
Welcome from the
Parents, Teachers and
Friends Association
(PTFA)
The PTFA offers everyone the opportunity to come together
socially and to create a supportive community. We also
organise fundraising activities to help with the running
costs of the school. These events can be a lot of fun and a
way for parents to be part of the school community. A very
warm welcome is extended to new parents.
Examples of our events are: Hanwell Carnival, Light up the
Lane, Open Days, annual BBQ and much more. Ask the
school for details.
A very warm welcome is extended to new parents.
New parents - don't be shy - join in the fun in this friendly
and social group, the PFTA! And, if you have ideas for
events or have talents you'd like to share, get in touch
straight away!
