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:
“When the landscape buckles and jerks around, when a dust column of debris rises from the collapse of a block of buildings on bodies that could have been your own, when the staves of history fall awry and the barrel of time bursts apart, some turn to prayer, some to poetry: words in the memory, a stained book carried close to the body, the notebook scribbled by hand—a center of gravity.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“Only the history of free peoples is worth our attention; the history of men under a despotism is merely a collection of anecdotes.”
—Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)
“What has history to do with me? Mine is the first and only world! I want to report how I find the world. What others have told me about the world is a very small and incidental part of my experience. I have to judge the world, to measure things.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)
