Moylegrove Primary School near Cardigan is where my daughter used to go to school, please take look at their bilingual web site to get a idea of what a brilliant school it was. Pembrokeshire County Council have now closed this excellent village school and would now like to close several more like it - they think it will save money. But do they know the true value of such a resource to the villagers and local community? If you would like to support our campaign to keep small rural schools in Wales open please contact me.
