Our sincere thanks go to local law firms Carter Vincent, Davies & Co and Humphreys Dawson who have generously sponsored this year’s team and facilitated our entry in the competition. Thanks also to Amy Edwards, Barrister from Linenhall Chambers, Chester, who helped coach this year’s team.
This Wednesday a group of Year 9 and 10 students presented at YouthCOP Cymru at Bangor University about their Deforestation Free Schools Journey. It was amazing to go from conference attendees in 2024 to having a "seat at the table" in this year's event. They even wrote and performed a short play about their vision for a future where the rights of the forest are enshrined in international law. The event highlighted how soy grown in Brazil's rainforests enters the Welsh food supply chain and contributes to devastating impacts for climate, biodiversity and indigenous communities. Our students are not just the leaders of tomorrow - they are leading today! Given the right platform, they can use their voices to drive changes for a more sustainable future. #youthcopcymru #deforestationfree #aplacetofindyourfuture #acommunitytobeproudof

The programme is designed to inspire and support state-school students throughout Year 11, 12 and 13. It attempts to ensure that students recognise Oxford as a realistic and achievable option for them in the future. Students have regular, consistent contact with the College's Outreach team over three years.
Year 11 'Step-Up' students will enjoy a residential visit to Oxford University in February whilst Year 12 and 13 students will be supported in making applications to the UK's most competitive universities including help with UCAS and interview preparation.

Today, the Year 7 Hospitality and Catering group embarked on a culinary adventure by making chicken fajitas. The students prepared fresh ingredients, chopped vegetables like bell peppers and onions, and marinated chicken with spices.
This hands-on experience taught important cooking skills while encouraging teamwork and creativity. The group enjoyed tasting their creations, sharing feedback, and celebrating their successful meal together.
