• Operation Christmas Child shoebox collection

  Tue 11 Nov 2025

  Ty Gwyn staff and pupils have collected small toys, notebooks, pens, socks and gloves for the Operation Christmas Child appeal. We have boxes for all ages, boy and girl, children who live in circumstances where they would have nothing, will now have a gift from our part of Wales at Christmas.

  Thank you to the staff and governors that contributed.

  We will be going to the donation point at the Oasis Church Aberdare on Friday morning with some of our children and young people as part of our Rights Respecting Schools work. Please see our pictures, we filled 41 shoe boxes! 
  Pupils E and D accompanied by Lisa and Vicky filled the car in the awful weather and made our donation! 
   

  

• RCT have launched their Active Travel Toolkit for children and young people!

  Thu 06 Nov 2025

  Many children and young people who attend Ty Gwyn Education Centre attend via school transport, we do have a number who come to school on foot or in parent/carer vehicles. A lot of young people are also out and about in the community after school and on weekends and holidays, please follow the link and share the information, especially about safety, with your child or young person, especially as the dark nights are here.
