We sent two teams of cricketers to the Chirk tournament today. All 16 players were excellent and one of our teams made it through to the final to be held on June 22nd – da iawn teams!

We welcomed a visit from BBC Wales and Will from Rossett Park Farming, who came to learn more about the amazing work taking place at Fferm Bach and The Living Classroom. Our shepherds and farm managers were filmed for a feature on BBC News.

As always, our pupils were true professionals. We were incredibly proud of the confidence, knowledge, and enthusiasm they showed while talking about Fferm Bach. Their high-quality dialogue and thoughtful explanations highlighted the valuable learning experiences that take place every day.

A huge congratulations to all the children involved—you were fantastic ambassadors for our school and community. 

We had our final Year 3-6 street dance after school club today and members performed the routines they’d been practising got their families – da iawn pawb!

Clwb Fferm Bach News – Dosbarth Penrhyn 

You never know what might happen at Clwb Fferm Bach, but we certainly weren’t expecting Blossom to roll in her molasses lick!

She ended up being one very sticky goat, but thankfully we had a fantastic team on hand to help. Our pupils worked together brilliantly to give Blossom a quick wash and dry, making sure she was clean, comfortable, and back to her usual self in no time.

Another memorable day at Fferm Bach, where every day brings a new adventure and plenty of opportunities to learn, care for our animals, and work as a team! 

The mayor of Wrexham- Tina Mannering- came to officially open our Fferm Bach and Living Classroom on Friday 15^th May at our community launch party. We invited the whole school – and wider village- community along to see our brand new outdoor classroom space, explore Cluckingham Palace – where our hens Maud, Doris, Gertrude, Mrs Doubtfire, Eggatha Christie and Dolly Parthen live, see our stable and paddocks where our Pygmy goats Teddy, Bear, Blossom and Bloom roam, meet the originals – Big Nacho and Dougal – our Guinea pigs and to see our new school kitchen, waterproof room and wildlife pond. It was a lovely family event with lots of fun and games. Our school farm and living classroom provision will enhance learner experiences and provide authentic experiences for our pupils to develop all of their curriculum skills and knowledge whilst supporting their health and well-being. Watch this space for more Fferm Bach updates!

Our friends from ‘Open the Book’ visited school yesterday to share some Bible stories with us – they brought the arrival of Jesus on ‘Palm Sunday’ and ‘The Last Supper’ to life for us – with the help of some of our Year 6 pupils.

Diolch!

On Friday, our whole school took part in a sponsored ‘Walk for Waterproofs’ — and what a fantastic team effort it was!

We’re delighted to share that we raised enough money to ensure our learners will be fully kitted out for their outdoor learning lessons and activities. A huge thank you to everyone in our school community who supported us, whether by sponsoring our children or walking alongside us.

A special mention to some of our older pupils who stayed after school until 4:30pm to make sure the full 30-mile distance was completed — amazing dedication!

Well done, everyone — we can’t wait to show off our new outdoor wear!

Our Early Education pupils have loved spending time with our school guinea pigs, ‘Big Nacho’ and ‘Dougal’!

We had three fantastic assembly presentations from our friends at Shropshire Falconry! The children thoroughly enjoyed the display and loved learning all about the birds
