We had a dozen pumpkins donated by Tesco, carved by School Council and used to decorate the hall. Thank you to Mrs Prile for doing a great job as DJ. We raised £290 which has helped to fund the Wrexham Music Service Orchestra concert and Christmas activities. We would like to thank our parents for your support for this event. Our Year 6 pupils visited Techniquest Glyndwr Science Discovery Centre recently. Techniquest supports science, technology, engineering and maths and the pupils had a great time exploring some of the zones. They enjoyed a show and experiments involving measuring and test tubes. The pupils had time to spend in more of the zones ending the day with a talk in personal protective equipment, wearing lab coats and completing experiments using fire. This autumn the Reception class have been busy making nests and pictures with natural materials, made fantastic scarecrows for homework and made loaves as gifts to the other classes in the school. They used harvest fruits to make healthy fruit kebabs and also made pumpkin soup with pumpkins kindly donated by Tesco. The School Council organised a Children in Need fundraising event with children and staff paying £1.00 to attend school in their pyjamas, and our school cook, Mrs Sue Price, kindly made 200 Pudsey Bear biscuits which we sold on the day raising £328.50 for Children in Need.

We were extremely grateful for all the donations of food which we received and were able to give to the Wrexham Food Bank. We were also very proud and pleased to be invited to Cefn Cenotaph where we joined our local community to remember those who lost their lives in wars since the First World War. Our Year 6 pupils, joined by pupils from the other local schools, read out the names of the people who are named upon the Cenotaph. Our younger pupils painted poppies and learned about the importance of remembrance. More recently Year 6 pupils visited the Imperial War Museum in Manchester to learn more about the wars and the ways in which the affected people's lives. All the children are now very keen to embark on the community centenary project.
