• YSGOL PENTRE CIW, Chirk
The school recently received some donations from a local business for their outdoor and garden area.
Pupils had a fabulous time building and preparing using the items from HeatSource Energy Solutions based in Wrexham.
Claire Grimley, from HeatSource Energy Solutions, who has two children at the school, said: "They were looking for donations and I thought it was a good chance to give back.
"I'm happy to help, they're only a small school. It's great for children to be outside, and learning about plants.
"I can't wait to see what they do with it."
• ARGOED HIGH SCHOOL, Mynydd Isa
This year, the Year 11 send off was a little different from the usual celebrations but pupils were still given a day to remember.
Pupils were treated to a talk from ex-pupil Adam Southwell, of Adam Southwell Media Limited, photographer and videographer to the stars.
Adam, who works with sports stars such as Anthony Joshua and John Terry, was thrilled to be back.
He said: “I am so grateful to have been a part of such a great school.
"Today has just proved how willing the staff are to go the extra mile for the students.
"I feel honoured that Mr Smith has asked me back, to talk to the pupils."
During the day, students received various awards for their efforts over the last five years, with Bartosz Drabik picking up the prestigious Headteacher Award.
Other awards included: Ross Ruddock for Highest Achiever Award (male) and Ffion Hadfield-Jones picked up the Highest Achiever Award (female), Louis Williams for Sports Personality 2021 and Laura Green for Contribution to the Arts, whilst Stephanie Cox was given the award for Most Improved Pupil.
Students also, got to see another side to assistant headteacher Mike Lofts who performed a song for them.
Headteacher Paul Smith summed up the day: “I have been overwhelmed by the positive attitude of the students, each and every one of them have made me proud.
"I wish them all the success in their next steps."
• ST ETHELWOLD'S CP SCHOOL, Deeside
The new Shoe Shop role play are proved popular with Class 1, from measuring, matching and sorting, to paying for items with money and using vocabulary.
They also continued to read their class book, The Elves and the Shoemaker, and the children participated in a sewing activity, following in the steps of Stan the Shoemaker and his wife Jan from the story.
Class 2 started looking at multiplication and counting in twos.
They used story maps of The Three Little Pigs story to retell the story in the correct order with as much detail as possible, and practised team building and problem solving skills by making houses out of straw. Then the 'Big Bad Wolf' fan tried to blow them down.
They continued to think about wolves by learning to play What's The Time Mr Wolf in Welsh, and creating pictures of the wolf howling at the moon.
This week in Class 3 demonstrated their creative skills and developed their ability to use digital technology through the presentation of the Christian Creation Story.
Following the artistic theme, the class have been naming various 2D shapes and recognising the properties. They have used mirrors to reflect shapes and have been exploring lines of symmetry.
In Religious Education and English, class 4 pupils edited and finalised their Pilgrims Postcard work.
In Maths they have been converting between decimals, fractions and percentages.
The Daily Mile became a little competitive, resulting in a crazy 152 collective miles being posted. Exactly the distance to our capital city Cardiff.
The highlight of the week was Friday's trip to Aston Bowling Club. The children were treated to a lesson courtesy of a few of the members and absolutely loved the experience.
