St David's News

St David’s College would like to congratulate former pupil, Ben Hay, who has been selected to represent the UK in the WorldSkills Mechanical Engineering: CAD competition in Lyon, France.

Year 5 and 6 have been busily fundraising for a homeless charity in Llandudno called Hope Restored. Now the class is extending this fundraising challenge to the rest of the school!

Huge congratulations to Oliver Pearce (yr 8) for winning the ISA Young Musician of the Year award this afternoon. Oliver faced stiff competition from 38 pupils from across the UK. He delivered a virtuoso performance that impressed the judges and took home the top prize. Well done Oliver!

Our Sixth Form looked incredible as they all donned their finest last Friday for the annual Sixth Form Ball. The Committee, made up of the Head Boy & Head Girl along with their Prefects, worked tirelessly to plan and deliver the outstanding event held at the Imperial Hotel in Llandudno.

Rehearsals for the forthcoming school production are well underway, and Matilda’s best friend Lavender, is being played by 10-year-old Annie who is already a seasoned performer.

Last week saw the return of the House Bouldering Competition. Cader, Tryfan, and Snowdon House all sent teams to the Boathouse Climbing Centre in Llandudno to take on some fiendishly challenging climbing problems set for them by the Outdoor Education Team.

St David’s College is very proud to reveal that Oliver Pearce, in Year 8, has been shortlisted for the ISA Young Musician of the Year.

Today some of our pupils were fortunate to have spent time in the company of holocaust survivor Henry Schachter. Gathered in our Chapel, pupils listened to Henri speak about some of his own and his family's experiences before, during, and after what was one of the darkest periods of human history.
