Newsletter 28th November 2008
Last night we had our Autumn Fair and the turn out was fantastic. There were several very inventive and creative stalls, the chocolate marshmallow fondue was one I particularly enjoyed. The atmosphere was extremely positive and it was so good to see so many pupils involved with their own tutor group stalls. Thank you to all those parents, pupils and staff who helped to make it such a successful event. A fine example of parent, pupils, staff and friends of Argoed High School succeeding together for excellence.
Welcome back all our Year 11 pupils from their trial exam weeks on Monday 1st December.
