COLLECTIVE WORSHIP Collective worship within St. Brigid's is valued by all pupils and members of staff. Talking the time to reflect and celebrate helps children build social skills and strategies needed in future life. These services occur daily for all pupils in a variety of settings. Pupils have whole school, departmental and class assemblies. This time is used to reflect on the moral teachings of The Bible, reflect on current events of significance to the pupils and support leaners with personal, social and emotional situations. Learners also take part in group singing, celebration and awards assemblies. All pupils also attend our school chapel weekly, for prayer and reflection with our chaplaincy team. They have the opportunity to take part in rosary each day. Pupils are expected to reflect and pray each morning, lunch and end of the school day within their lessons. The Memorare Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my mother; to thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen. Hail, Holy Queen Hail, holy Queen, mother of Mercy. Hail, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve; to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping, in this vale of tears. Turn then, most gracious advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us; and after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet virgin Mary. Pray for us O Holy Mother of God, That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ. OUR PRAYERS Our Father Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen Hail Mary Hail Mary, Full of Grace, The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of our death. Amen Glory Be Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen Morning Prayer Father in Heaven, you love me, You’re with me night and day. I want to love you always In all I do and say. I’ll try to please you, Father. Bless me through the day. Amen. Evening Prayer God our Father, I come to say Thank you for your love today. Thank you for my family, And all the friends you give to me. Guard me in the dark of night, And in the morning send your light. Amen. Fatima Prayer O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, And save us from the fires of hell. Lead all souls to heaven, especially those in most need of thy mercy. Amen Guardian Angel Angel of God, my guardian dear, To whom God's love commits me here, Ever this day, be at my side, To light and guard, Rule and guide. Amen Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in this day of battle. Be our defence against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits, who wander through the world for the ruin of souls. Amen Sister Elizabeth Kelly Roedd y Chwaer Elizabeth Kelly, CSB a adwaenir yn fwy hoffus fel "Sister Liz" yn gyn-ddisgybl, athrawes a Phennaeth Santes Ffraid.

Llywodraethwyr Mae'r corff llywodraethu yn chwarae rhan hanfodol yn llwyddiant unrhyw ysgol, gan ddarparu arweiniad strategol, monitro perfformiad a gweithredu fel 'ffrind beirniadol' i'r pennaeth a'r staff.

Mae hynny'n golygu bod yn rhaid i'r corff llywodraethu drafod a chymeradwyo unrhyw newidiadau mawr mewn ymarfer a chyfeiriad. Os ydych chi eisiau gwybod beth a drafodwyd yn ddiweddar, edrychwch ar y cofnodion diweddar trwy glicio ar gofnodion Cyfarfod y Llywodraethwyr isod.

I ffwrdd o'r ystafell ddosbarth ein nod yw cynnig llawer o gyfleoedd gyda chwaraeon allgyrsiol, gyda chlybiau amser cinio a'r cyfle i gynrychioli'r ysgol yn erbyn eraill mewn cystadleuaeth.

Located at the foot of the beautiful Clwydian Range, a natural wonder of North Wales. Our school has a captivating history that spans several decades, and we couldn't be prouder to be a part of this incredible community. Join us on an fascinating journey through the rich history of our school and it's Catholic foundations. 1939 1939 1939 1939 The School was established in 1939 by the Congregation of St. Brigid, a convent in Ireland, at the invitation of the Bishop of Menevia, and set up in premises on Park Street in Denbigh. In 1943, the Nuns moved the school to the present premises, an early-Victorian house, and the school became St. Brigid’s Convent School, catering for children from age 4 to 18, from all over Britain and Ireland. 1943 1943 1943 1943 1946 1946 1946 1946 In 1946, the Sisters were asked to provide a Catholic education with high academic and disciplinary standards for the daughters of Polish Officers, thus forming the basis of an international dimension of the school. Over the years, it became a very successful boarding school, and became known as the Brigidine Convent During 1990, when due to the lack of vocations, the Congregation were concerned about the future of the school. A former parent, Mr. William Spencer, purchased the property and leased it to a newly-formed Trust, under the patronage of the Bishop of Wrexham, which ran and developed the school, and it grew as a successful Independent Boarding School. In 1999, the school became Voluntary-Aided, supported by Denbighshire local authority, which it remains to this day. 1999 1999 1999 1999 2024 2024 2024 2024 1996 1996 1996 1996 In 1996 the school became Grant Maintained; the first maintained boarding school in Wales.

However there may be occasions when we have reason to be concerned that a child may be subject to ill-treatment, neglect or other forms of abuse. We will ensure that our concerns about a child are discussed with his/her parents/carers first, unless we have reason to believe that such a move would be contrary to the child’s welfare. In this case school is obliged to follow the Child Protection procedures established by Denbighshire County Council Safeguarding Committee and inform the Social Services of the concern. If you are worried about a child's safety please do not hesitate to contact Mrs Crimes or one of our Safeguarding Team.
