Janet Finch-Saunders MS has expressed her thanks to all pupils and teachers at St David’s College for their warm welcome during a visit to the school today.
From its foundation in 1965, St David’s College, for boarding and day pupils, has pioneered teaching that enables pupils to reach their full potential. Integral to this is the aim to develop every child’s character, enabling them to gain an extraordinary range of skills, to discover true self-confidence and appreciate a real sense of belonging.
Speaking after the visit, Janet said:
“It was great to spend time at St David’s College.
“They are very kind hearted as is evidenced by their donation of 155 advent calendars and around 10 other chocolate selection boxes to Hope Restored food bank in West Shore.
“The school won the Innovation Prize at the Independent School of the Year Awards, and I could see why. The facilities, education, and extra-curricular activities are incredible.”

Diolchodd Janet Finch-Saunders AS i'r holl ddisgyblion ac athrawon yng Ngholeg Dewi Sant am eu croeso cynnes yn ystod ymweliad â'r ysgol heddiw.
Ers ei sefydlu ym 1965, mae Coleg Dewi Sant, ar gyfer disgyblion preswyl a dydd, wedi arloesi ym maes addysgu gan alluogi disgyblion i gyflawni eu llawn botensial. Yn ganolog i hyn mae'r nod o ddatblygu cymeriad pob plentyn, gan eu galluogi i feithrin ystod ryfeddol o sgiliau, darganfod gwir hunanhyder a gwerthfawrogi ymdeimlad go iawn o berthyn.
Yn siarad ar ôl yr ymweliad, dywedodd Janet:
“Roedd hi’n braf iawn treulio amser yng Ngholeg Dewi Sant.
“Maen nhw'n garedig iawn fel y gwelwyd gyda’u rhodd o 155 o galendrau adfent a thua 10 bocs detholiad o siocledi i fanc bwyd Hope Restored ym Mhen Morfa.
"Enillodd yr ysgol y Wobr Arloesedd yng Ngwobrau Ysgolion Annibynnol y Flwyddyn, a gallaf weld pam. Mae'r cyfleusterau, addysg, a gweithgareddau allgyrsiol yn anhygoel."
