New Fish for the New Fish Tank
A big thank you to Lucy, Noah, Jim and his daughter for helping to choose some new fish for our fish tank. We had a budget of £40 and we spent it wisely on some great fishy deals at Waterways. Lucy and Noah are in charge of the fish tank at school and Jim cleans it and gives us lots of great advice about how to look after the fish.

Well done to our year 5 children and upper school Eco Committee who helped the Erddig Rotary Club plant over 4000 crocuses in Bellevue Park today – wow! well done for being part of a town improvement plan!
Super Ambassadors
Well done to Millie and Gabe who represented school as Head Girl and Head Boy. They meet the Education Commissioner for Wales to discuss issues such as bullying, safety, health and pupil voice. They also took part in some ‘jamming’ with drums! Gabe and Millie have already written an action plan to further improve the quality of pupil voice at Victoria CP School. Thank you Miss Edwards and Mr Potts for accompanying the children.
