Cynffig Christmas Carol Service

On Tuesday 19th December 2023, pupils, staff, parents and community members gathered for our annual Christmas Carol Service.  The audience was treated to performance by the school choirs, drama groups, soloists and instrumental ensembles.

It was great to be able to include our developing groups such as our String & Brass groups, alonside our more established Guitar group and choirs.  Pupils from all year groups were represented with over 30 year 7s involved.

The event is a fantastic way to get into the Christmas spirit as well as showcasing the many talent of our young people.

We extend our gratitude to St Theodore's church for allowing us to use their beautiful venue, and to all the families & community members for attending.

Criw Cymraeg ~ Anrheg Nadolig


On Tuesday 19th December 2023, four representatives from our Criw Cymraeg delivered bilingual Christmas cards they have made to the residents of Llys Gwyn Residential Home.

The pupils were a credit to the school and the residents were most grateful to them for their time and the handmade cards they delivered on behalf of all members of the Criw Cymraeg. Anne, the oldest resident at 102 years young was delighted to meet the pupils!

It was a very moving and humbling experience for them all.

Well done Criw!

Our 6th form have had some fantastic visits over the last two weeks.

Last week Seven Year 12 learners went to Jesus College in Oxford University. 

They had a tour of the city, a Q and A session about the university and the selection process.


Today our terrific 6th form students enjoyed a day at Bath Christmas Markets.

They had a terrific day shopping and ice skating.

Big thanks Mrs Padmore and staff for arranging and taking the pupils.

Well done to all students who were superb throughout.
