It’s with deep sadness that we have to announce that we have lost our Chair of Governors today. Cllr. Des Davies was a member of our governing body for over 20 years. He always had great pride in the school, pupils and staff and he will be greatly missed by all.
Diolch to all staff, pupils,parents and special visitors who attended our Macmillan coffee morning. Our marvellous efforts helped us raise over £250
