Thank You/Diolch yn Fawr

Thank you for your generous harvest donations of food for the Wrexham Foodbank. This week, Mr Williams took all the donations to the Wrexham Foodbank in Rhosddu. They were very grateful for your donations. All the food donations weighed 86kg!!! 

That is the same weight as......

• A large adult lion

• An average baby elephant calf

• The combined weight of around 86 one litre bottles of water 

Thank you for your support.

Governor News

Our first governing body meeting of the academic year was held last week. Sue Banner has been elected as Chair of Governors and Will Ollerhead has been elected as Vice Chair.

We welcomed two new governors, Dr Emily Clarke Jones as our new Local Authority Governor and Rev Emma Dale as our new Ex- Officio Foundation Governor.  Sadly, Miss Marie Owen has stepped down as Foundation Governor. I would like to than Marie for her hard work and dedication as a Governor of Minera School.  For further information on our Governing Body, please visit Our Governors | Minera Aided Primary School .
