About Our Class
Welcome to Dosbarth Pobbles! This year promises to be an exciting journey filled with opportunities for growth and discovery.
We are committed to fostering an ambitious mindset, encouraging each pupil to set high goals and strive towards them with dedication and hard work. Building confidence is at the heart of our approach, ensuring that every child feels capable and supported in their endeavours.
