Eisteddfod Ysgol 2010
Eisteddfod Ysgol 2010.
On Tuesday 13th July 2010, Year 7, 8 and 9 took part in the School Eisteddfod. It was a very enjoyable day and everyone was very well behaved. Pupils took part in a number of competitions for example; Welsh, Music, English, French and German. Over the past few weeks, pupils have also been working very hard on their offstage competitions. A wonderful display was created of these works.
Year seven competitions were held first followed by year eight and nine. It culminated in the Chairing of the Bard. This year Harriet Thompson won this competition with her poem entitled “Beauty” where she considered different types of beauty, coming to the conclusion that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Read it HERE.
School this year was fortunate to have Mr Fidler who volunteered to compare the event and be a judge. Mrs Deborah Jones, Miss Hannah Wright and Miss Amy Davies also came to judge the competitions. They were impressed by the talents and good behaviour shown by St Joseph’s pupils. A very big thank you to a number of staff who helped with the preparation of the eisteddfod and all who came to the event.
The day was a day to remember by all. In fact, together with visits and special occasions, such days are the ones that pupils remember with affection long after they have left school.

World Cup Fantasy League
World Cup Fantasy League
Final Update (9.20am 14th July 2010)
Congratulations to Mrs Griffiths, who won the St Joseph’s fantasy league by a handsome nine points. She led pretty much from the start, and other teachers followed her example. For the first time, staff dominated our fantasy league, with the highest pupil coming fifth. Ben Griffiths-Trevor was top of the Year Seven table, Liam Skelly was manager of the day to claim the Year Eight crown, Dara Fitzgerald won the Year Nine competition by a whopping twenty points and Luke Haponow took the Year Ten prize by the four points won for him by the World Cup winning goal from Andres Iniesta. Thanks to everyone for taking part; we raised over £80 for the Year Seven charity, HCPT.
