Our 3 children Neil, Victoria and Thomas attended Craig – Y –Nos School. As a family we are unanimous in our view that the education they received during their time at Craig – Y – Nos was second to none. The friendly atmosphere created by Mr & Mrs Fursland, staff and pupils, has made for very pleasant memories for our children.

I have very fond memories of attending Craig-y-Nos, the staff and the many friends which i made there. So it's pleasing to see how it's been able to develop over the years since i left, yet still keep what seems to be a close family atmosphere. It's also nice to see that Lloyds won the house trophy last year since i was once their house captain! I wish the scool continued success for the future, and hope that it continues to grow from strength to strength.
