Well done to former pupil Hywel Jones. He chose not to follow the traditional degree route, instead, he secured a higher level accountancy apprenticeship. Now qualified & gained the 2nd highest marks achieved worldwide in his ACCA examinations. #careerpathwaysinaction

The Y7 hockey team maintained high spirits in pouring down rain playing against Y Pant. Although we narrowly lost, there was some great hockey on display & tactical play. P.O.T.M were Darcy, Ethan, Dom & Lily but as always, it was a great team effort!

The u16 hockey team played Bryntirion last week at home. It was a close game with one goal separating the teams, luckily for Brynteg! Well done to Lucy for showing great composure to slot the ball away and Rosie who was awarded player of the match. Great playing team!
