A COMPANY in Chirk has provided a local school classroom with the very latest computer screens.

Wood panel manufacturer Kronospan has sponsored Ysgol Y Waun Chapel Lane site with new 65 inch high definition screens in every classroom.

Head teacher John Roberts contacted Kronospan asking for help in purchasing the new screens as the old classroom projectors had come to the end of their life and were getting increasingly expensive to maintain.

Mr Roberts said: “We are really excited to have the latest technology here in Chirk and want to thank Kronospan for their financial support which has made the project possible.

“The children will benefit hugely from the new screens as the picture quality is really good because they are High Definition. They will play a vital part in the teaching curriculum and although they have only just been installed the children already love them.”

The new screens deliver a very sharp picture and since they can be linked to all computers laptops and touchpads, they are also an essential part of the children’s learning experience.

Mike McKenna, Kronospan chairman said: “Kronospan is delighted to be able to help Ysgol Y Waun once more with new IT.

“Last year we gave the older children 30 new Chromebook laptops so it was time to help the younger children with these large screens.

“They look really good and will make the learning process exciting and accessible to all the children.”
