Dug Caeredin Gwobr Arian Blwyddyn 11 DofE Silver Award

A group of Year 11 pupils spent the weekend on their practice expedition for their Silver Duke of Edinburgh’s Award. The group navigated themselves around the Brecon beacons covering around 20Km across two days and climbed Cadair Fawr (485m). They faced the additional challenge of the weather with some sun, rain and hail all while hiking carrying their full kit packs. At camp pupils demonstrated their campcraft skills and cooked on Trangia’s in between rain showers. The group showed excellent skills in readiness for their qualifying expedition next weekend. Da iawn bawb!

Botanical Gardens of Wales Trip

What a way to end the final Art and Photography trip of the school year!

A brilliant day exploring the beautiful Botanic Garden of Wales and the British Bird of Prey Centre. Pupils made great use of their new sketchbooks, drawing flowers, plants, and soaking in the stunning Welsh landscape. The bird flight display brought plenty of laughs and wide-eyed amazement. A fantastic day out for all 120 pupils, celebrating creativity in the great outdoors!

Mynd nol i Ysgol Baglan/Returning to Ysgol Baglan

Dros y dyddiau diweddar mae rhai o’n disgyblion blwyddyn 7 wedi bod yn dychwelyd i’u hen ysgol gynradd er mwyn siarad yn anffurfiol gyda blwyddyn 6 cyn iddynt yn dechrau gyda ni ym mis Medi. Diolch yn fawr i Mrs Harries am yr holl waith trefnu ac i Mrs Morgan/Mrs Smart am y croeso cynnes.

Over recent days some of our year 7 pupils have really enjoyed the opportunity to return to their old primary schools to have a chat with year 6 before they start with us in September. Diolch yn fawr i Mrs Harries for all the work in co-ordinating the visits and to Mrs Morgan/Mrs Smart for the warm welcome this morning.
