Advice to pupils from the Warden in his final assembly of the term: "Don't spend too much money on Christmas but do spend proper time with family & friends. Rest well - we all deserve a break and rest is really important- and if you can, stay in your pyjamas on Christmas Day".
Three huge games for our students today - watch all three live streamed on YouTube WRU TV & S4C Clic. Dewar Shield Final KO 3pm, U18s WSC Girls Final KO 5.15pm, U18s WSC Boys Final KO 7.30pm. Support our students online or in person - GOOD LUCK teams!!
