Headteacher Helen Vernon said: “As part of the Curriculum for Wales, outdoor learning is an essential tool for our children to have new experiences and a different way of learning."

She added: "We have invested a lot in our outdoor facilities, including forest schools, and this money has been a huge benefit to the school in providing the resources that the staff require to deliver high quality learning for all.

"We would like to thank Gwynt Y Mor for their kind, generous donation and hope to work with them again in the future.”

The Gwynt y Mor funding is a long-term investment of £19million across the windfarm’s lifetime, and helps communities of Conwy, Denbighshire and Flintshire.
