Assembly

It has to be said, Olwen house were BRILLIANT yesterday in assembly. When the Head teacher comments upon the maturity of the house moving from one place to another in difficult circumstances in a positive way, it makes me extremely happy.

Well done people - we are still the best house!!

Pathways evening

Pathways evening for year 11 into year 12 will take place at the Christchirch Centre on the 16th March. If you are in year 11 you really should be there to see what is on offer to you!

unform and piercings.

Olwen have always been good regarding uniform standards, however these have been dropping recently. If you are wearing the wrong kind of cardigan, trainers, or you have innapropriate piercings, you will be warned about it, but very soon there will be a crackdown by the school in general. I would prefer it if no Olwen people were involved in this.

You have been warned...

Revision Conference
