Denbigh High School, Denbigh

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Denbigh High School is situated on Ruthin Road, Denbigh in North Wales and caters for approximately 1,000 pupils from the ages of 11 to 18.

Most of the school children come from Denbigh, St Asaph and the surrounding villages. The school has an annual sponsored walk, held in early September. For the past two years, it has been a 13.5 kilometre walk around the Clwydian Range.

The school was originally situated on two separate sites with the first 3 years on the existing site and the older years at an older building on Middle Lane, which is situated half a mile away. This Middle Lane site was built in 1903 as The County School and Denbigh High ceased using it in 1983. The site then became a Youth Club and is used for Teacher Training and Education Administration.

Current Head Mistress is Alison Duncan. Previous Head Masters include, Bill Bailey, Gwyn Dodd and Maurice Bitcon.
