It’s been a very busy few weeks at Ysgol Aberconwy with a host of opportunities for pupils to give something back to their communities with a range of fund-raising events that have benefitted several charities and organisations.

Aberconwy pupils have been involved in an array of activities that have included: Band Nights (featuring Aberconwy talent), non-uniform days, coffee mornings, fancy dress competitions, break time cake sales, lunchtime stalls, face painting and penalty shoot-outs to name just a few.

Sixth Form students have also been out in the local community promoting the work of the Fairtrade Foundation and at the end of last term, pupils once again donned an amazing assortment of fancy dress costumes – not all of which were particularly practical – to take part in the Sport Relief mile.

Time and time again, Aberconwy students and pupils prove how enthusiastic and imaginative they are in making a contribution to the local and wider community and always impress with their generosity.

In total, over £3300 has been raised by the school which has been donated to the following organisations:

• Meningitis Trust
• Macmillan Nurses
• Fairtrade Foundation
• Alder Hay Children’s Hospital
• Sport Relief

Many thanks and congratulations to everyone who took part in any of these events.
