Some of our students were scheduled to complete their expedition section of their #dukeofedinburghaward this week! Unfortunately we couldn’t go ahead with it. Volunteering is another section of the award which most students have completed, along with their skill and physical. 💪🏻

One of our favourite memories of Performing Arts at Derwen College. Being televised on #S4C performing #anfonafangel in the #inclusionproject @llangollen_eisteddfod 🤩
Here's Zoe our head of curriculum having her daily exercise walking her dog Bruce. She's been busy keeping in touch with all our students to see how they're doing at home 📧 #keepintouch #StayAtHome
