Cwmbran Community Council holds around 7 Summer Playschemes each year and caters for over 1000 children of primary school age. Last year children enjoyed a wide range of activities including trips to Techniquest, Bristol Zoo & Greenmeadow Community Farm. The playschemes are financed entirely by Cwmbran Community Council.

This year Cwmbran Community Council is in the process of organising seven Summer Playschemes being held at Coed Eva Infants School, Fairwater Junior School, Greenmeadow Primary School, Henllys Church in Wales School, Hollybush Primary School, Maendy Primary School and Oakfield Primary School. Playschemes start on Monday 28th July and finish Friday 22nd August 2003. Registration Forms will be available from Monday 2nd June from participating schools and Cwmbran Community Council, The Council House, Ventnor Road, Old Cwmbran (tel 01633 838456).

Cwmbran Community Council's Summer Playschemes caters for children aged 5 to 11. (Primary School Age) Cwmbran Community Council is operating a two-tier prioritisation scheme whereby children who attend any of the schools which have allowed Cwmbran Community Council to use their site and facilities have first priority to register for the schemes. Each participating school will let every child have a Parents Information Booklet and a Child Registration Form which should be completed and returned to Cwmbran Community Council. All other children who attend other schools within the Cwmbran Community Council area or live in the Cwmbran Community Council area but attend other schools are allowed to apply for registration at any time (parents are asked to contact us on 01633 838456 or to call in to our offices to collect a registration form). However, these applications will not be considered, until after 20th June 2003. All forms will, however, be time and date stamped, again, to allow registration to occur on a "first come, first served" basis.
