Ysgol Gymraeg Nursery, St Dials, Cwmbran
The nursery building on the right is in the Ysgol Gymraeg site on the north side of Henllys Way. The school's website states that Ysgol Gymraeg Cwmbrân is a Welsh Primary School which was opened as an Infant and Junior School in September 1991 serving the catchment area of Cwmbran town and environs. In September 1997 a Nursery class was opened as part of the school. The school accepts pupils in accordance with the County Policy from the beginning of September following their fourth birthday or from the beginning of September following their third birthday to the nursery class.
I wondered why the English language part of the notice on the lamppost
is in UPPER CASE whereas the Welsh language text is in normal case.

Ysgol Gymraeg Cwmbr?n (Primary School)
The bear sculptures were created by former Head of Fine Art at Newport College of Art, Tony Stevens, having entered a Welsh Arts Council Competition in about 1970. It was based on his daughter's (Kate, a pupil at the school) favourite story at the time: Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Modelled in clay and cast in fibreglass, Daddy Bear is 6 foot tall, Mummy Bear 5 and Baby Bear 4.

The Three Bears, Ysgol Gymraeg, Cwmbran
When a local mentioned The Three Bears, I thought it was a pub. But no, it is an unofficial alternative name for Ysgol Gymraeg Cwmbrân. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1794581 This view shows the reason for the name.
