We would not be able to do what we do without the help of tremendous local community appeals such as these. Thank you so much to everyone at Ysgol Aberconwy&#8221;<br><br>We have been overwhelmed and humbled by the generosity shown during this genuine community appeal by students, staff, local partners and businesses who all kindly donated various gifts and prizes.<br><br>Mr Rhydian Jones, School Charity Co-Ordinator said,&nbsp; \u201cI am extremely proud of these students\u2019 efforts who had the drive and initiative to set up personal GoFundMe pages, source raffle prizes, arrange a school fancy dress day amongst a host of other activities. Fundraising can be difficult at the best of times but our students have shown great ingenuity and resilience in how they went about this fundraising appeal. I am incredibly proud of how the whole school community came together in support of T\u0177 Gobaith\u2019s invaluable work.&nbsp;We have just launched our Children in Need 2021 appeal and we are excited to see what enterprising fundraising activities our school community have planned in the run up to November 19th!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"212\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fundraising-POSTER-border-300x212.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2511\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fundraising-POSTER-border-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fundraising-POSTER-border-1024x725.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fundraising-POSTER-border-768x544.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fundraising-POSTER-border-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Fundraising-POSTER-border.jpg 1189w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ysgol Aberconwy sixth form students chose T\u0177 Gobaith (Hope House) for our local charity appeal this year and organised a number of events which raised a fantastic \u00a31,275&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2509","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorised"],"acf":[],"featured_image_src":null,"author_info":{"display_name":"Sarah Williams","author_link":"https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/en_gb\/author\/sarahwilliams\/"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2509","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2509"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2509\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2605,"href":"https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2509\/revisions\/2605"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2509"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2509"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aberconwy.conwy.sch.uk\/en_gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2509"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
