Rhosnesni High School - History

History

Three secondary schools were merged into two schools: Rhosnesni (formerly known as St. James Gardners's), and Ysgol James Gardner (formerly known as James Gardner). The third school, Groves, was used as a temporary site for Rhosnesni, Ysgol Clywedog and another local school, St James Gardner's Catholic High School, while improvements were made to their permanent sites. The Groves was then shut down entirely in 2006 and is now empty, but is rumoured to become part of Yale College's campus.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “There is nothing truer than myth: history, in its attempt to “realize” myth, distorts it, stops halfway; when history claims to have “succeeded” this is nothing but humbug and mystification. Everything we dream is “realizable.” Reality does not have to be: it is simply what it is.”
    —Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)

    “History is the present. That’s why every generation writes it anew. But what most people think of as history is its end product, myth.”
    —E.L. (Edgar Lawrence)

    “The principle office of history I take to be this: to prevent virtuous actions from being forgotten, and that evil words and deeds should fear an infamous reputation with posterity.”
    —Tacitus (c. 55–117)
