Ysgol Treferthyr, Cricieth. Screengrab from Gwynedd Council cabinet documents. One of the final processes in securing a new £5m primary school is set to be launched by councillors next week. Gwynedd Council’s Cabinet is expected to issue a statutory notice that, if approved and planning permission is secured, would allow work to start on a new 150 pupil school to replace Ysgol Treferthyr in Criccieth. Earmarked for a site just off the A497 on the western approach into the town, the authority hopes to open its doors in the summer of 2023, allowing the replacement of the existing “very poor” and “beyond repair” 1970s building.
A big-hearted wholesaler has been inspired by food bank football superstar Marcus Rashford to help hard-up families across North Wales and Cheshire. Harlech Foodservices, which has bases at Criccieth and Chester, loaded up its delivery vans to drop off an impressive list of over £1,000-worth of provisions at food banks at Pwllheli, Colwyn Bay and Northwich. It included 80 bumper boxes of 96 Weetabix, enough for several thousands of breakfasts, 63 packets of Chilli Con Carne sauce, over £200 worth of bread roll mix, Hot Chocolate, and a host of other items. The deliveries were co-ordinated by Ceri Brown, Harlech Foodservices Digital Project Manager, who said: “We have often donated to food banks but with the pandemic the need is so great and inspired by Marcus Rashford we wanted to do more.
