Our Facebook Page is not the same thing as a group.
The Facebook page is a "Fan Page" - I post stuff, you "follow it" (If you want to) - We don't chat, it's not fun, it's not private - it's intended as an advertisement. Anyone who sees it, sees everything on it. That's why it contains a warning in the description for people - Don't post personal information on it - it's a "billboard" for all to see. If you do this and an admin spots it, we'll take it down - for safety's sake. The group, however, is a different beast. Join, chat, post, all private/secret. Just for Gwynllyw parents/guardians. Anything you post there can only be seen by the members in the group. Until you join, you can't see what's going on in the group. Request to join here.... https://www.facebook.com/groups/1665265180412483/ We're looking for a translator - to keep an eye out for mistakes like the one about. Or are there more? If you have 5 minutes to spare......
It is with great sadness that we have had to cancel our plans for the Summer "It's a knockout" event.
Some concerns were raised by the education department and in light of the recent tragic event at Drayton Manor theme park, the school was unable to fully support to the event at this time. The only viable option was to cancel and Cyfeillion Gwynllyw may have to forfeit the deposit paid if the company cannot re-sell the event at such short notice. We can assure you this has been discussed at length and every effort has been made to resolve this matter. Hopefully, with more time to prepare, we will be able to schedule something for next summer, as long as all health and safety concerns can be addressed and we are fully supported, both by the school and the parents - we can't arrange events on this scale without your support. We realise this will be disappointing news for some and can only apologise but in the circumstances it is beyond our control. Thank you for your continued support.
