Questions about places

[ccgh]

Hello,

Not sure id I have posted this in the right place, so apologies if not.

I have moved to Colwyn Bay less than two weeks ago and due to my husband getting a job we had to find somewhere to live without looking round. We found a house to rent and moved up here with our two children and two dogs. My husband is away during the week at the moment.

I have a few questions which I hope someone can help me with?

Firstly, I am not sure of the area we have moved to but we have a 6 month tenancy agreement so this is only a short term issue, my main issue is schools for my 6 year old I have enrolled her in the nearest school which is Glan Y Mor but I am really not sure about it, could anyone please advise me on other schools in the area and their reputations.

Please could someone let me know where the Doctors surgeries are?

When are the works to the beach due to be completed, it looks as though it will be fantastic when it's open, and are dogs allowed on the part of the beach by the new building when that stretch opens?

Lastly can anyone recommend a reliable garage nearby as my car has just broken down?

Many thanks in advance

Welcome to the Forum.  I can answer a couple of those questions.

Here's a Doctor, it's in the West End of Colwyn Bay:

Dogs are currently not allowed on that bit of beach (between Pier and new Watersports Centre) between 1st May and 30th September. You can walk your dog on the other side of the Pier anytime.

Hi ccgh.

Just a point that Dave didn't mention-- there has been alot of controversy about dogs/ where they can go/ fouling/ and where they aren't allowed recently. We seem to have some rather overactive vigilantes who issue large on the spot fines to any poor unknowing soul who dares to set foot where they shouldn't with their dogs.
Dave might be able to add a link to postings on the subject.

My OH uses a mobile mechanic and recommends him for your car.

could anyone please advise me on other schools in the area and their reputations.

Yu can go onto the Welsh Education Estyn site for a full inspection report.  Click here for the relevant page.

Do you mean Ysgol Babanod Glan y Mor Greenfield Road Colwyn Bay Conwy
LL29 8ET?  If so the inspection just completed graded the school's performance as 'adequate'.

Thank you you've all been really helpful and I am looking forward to getting to know the area better and spending many happy years here.

St davids hospice I'm sure would collect the unwanted things your friend has

Wales Air Ambulance will collect any donated furniture but as Fester said any upholstered items must have fire labels.  Also do not accept mattresses unless still in the wrapper.

Jack I haven't had an Email, could you try send another please thanks

[Jack]

Hi AJLlandudno I have sent the email again, don't want to put the persons phone number on a public forum as I don't think it's appropriate.
He has a holiday home on Llys Helig Drive and will happily put a marquee up on the lawns for weddings.  If you don't get the email not sure how I can get the number to you.

[DaveR]

Jack, email the details to me at admin @ threetownsforum.co.uk and I will pass them on.

[DaveR]

I've received the info from Jack and have emailed it to Ajllandudno.
