Eisteddfod Success - On Thursday two of our Year 6 pupils competed in the inaugural Maelor Cluster Welsh recitation competition at the Maelor High School, Penley. Scarlette and Rosie both competed in the individual recitation competition alongside sixteen other pupils with Scarlette finishing second. Da iawn pawb!
Easter Celebration - The school enjoyed its annual Easter celebration in church on Monday. Thank you to Rupert and Max for leading our celebrations alongside the Rev'd Sue Huyton.

To the members of the community: 2024 marks the 150 year anniversary of education in the village of Marchwiel and nearly 200 years of a school site being situated in the area. Friends of Deiniol PTA are working with Ysgol Deiniol to hold a celebration open afternoon on Wednesday 15th May 2024 3:15pm-6:00pm. We are hoping to put together a display of photographs or memorabilia of the school through the ages from pupils, teachers or associates who have been part of the school either when the school was situated at the Jo Scott’s Furniture venue or when the school was situated at the current site on the Ridgeway. If you have any items that we could lend for the display, please put them in a named sealed envelope and drop them off at the school reception anytime between now and the event. We would really appreciate your support and hope to see you there. Please join us for refreshments and time to celebrate education in our village.

Easyfundraising - When making purchases online please can you go through the 'easyfundraising' app as a small percentage of the transaction will be sent to the Friends of Deiniol. It doesn't cost you anything at all and most online retailers take part: Amazon, John Lewis, M&S, Tui etc. Just download the app, choose Friends of Deiniol School Yard and then use the app to choose an online store to buy from. It's really simple to use and easy money for the school!
Recycled Clothes - Please keep bagging up and sending in any unwanted clothes to the school. It's really easy money for the Friends of Deiniol which is then sent back into school to help our children.
