School Council
The Voice of the Children
There are pupil representatives on the Student Council from the Senior and Junior department of the school. The council meets bi-weekly and discuss issues raised by the pupils throughout the school. The pupils are encouraged to speak to the student council representatives before the meeting about matters they want discussed or to write down as a class any concerns they want raised.
Our school expectation logo was thoughtfully designed by our school council. It symbolises how all flowers flourish with water and sunshine, every learner thrives when nurtured with input, encouragement, and support. The vital connection between nature and the growth of our learners. By embodying this philosophy in our logo, we aim to inspire a sense of community and collaboration, emphasising that together we can create an environment where every student can blossom and succeed.

Food Bank
The school council would like to say a huge thank you to all our wonderful families for their generosity with the food bank collection. We were overwhelmed with the amount of items that have been donated. The donations have been collected by Abergele district foodbank and the local community and will go towards supporting our local communities.
Welcome Back
The council are focused on capturing student feedback and proposed various fundraising ideas and school improvements.
Members also discussed promoting the Welsh language through themed days and activities. They brainstormed an action plan that includes fundraising events and a community choir.

Ty Morgan Opening
The student council attended the grand opening of the new community hub, Ty Morgan. Their presence symbolised the student body's commitment to embracing opportunities for growth and collaboration within the community. As ambassadors of their peers, they expressed enthusiasm for the potential benefits this new facility will bring to our school.

School Expectations
We have also come up with a new logo for our 3 school expectations and have had several design sessions and in depth discussions on what would work well for Ysgol Y Gogarth.
Mr Morgan's Champions
We had an amazing time celebrating and remembering our late headmaster, Mr. Morgan. The classes came dressed up in bright colours and enthusiastically participated in our fun race. The spirit and energy were truly infectious!
"We just wanted to say a huge thank you to you all, for a brilliant day.
This event wouldn't have been possible without the true Gogarth Team spirit. A big thank you to everyone who helped make today so special. We had so many of you give up your time, and your efforts are deeply appreciated. On behalf of myself and the school council – Diolch yn fawr to everyone, and congratulations to all who took part!"

Christmas Tree
Today some of the school council were invited to decorate a Christmas Tree for St Davids Hospice Christmas Tree Festival in St John's Church, Llandudno. We decided on an 'Alice in Wonderland' theme. A big thank you to Excell supply for donating the Christmas tree.
Children in Need
The school council would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone, parents, staff and students for helping to raise funds for a fantastic cause. It was wonderful to see everyone take part in the Danceathon and so many dressed up on the day. The final amount raised was £200.

Red Nose Day
The school Council organised a fun-filled, fundraising event with students in colourful outfits and wild hairstyles.
The student council-run café, offering teas, coffees, and homemade cakes donated by staff and parents, was a hit. Highlights included Kerrie Hopwood's award-winning cake and a staff/student quiz won by Dosbarth Tal-Y-Fan and Dosbarth Peris. The event ended with a sense of pride and accomplishment for the student council's hard work and dedication to a worthy cause.

Ty Morgan
We have been working on changing the CDC Centre into a community based Centre and are looking forward to sharing the details with you in the new year. We visited Tape to get some ideas of what a community base Centre looks and feels like.
