There were several musical performances by students, the highlight being the school singing a ‘Song for Wrexham’.

The school choir had won the ‘Song for Wrexham’ competition organised by Wrexham Music Co-operative in late 2024, with the song now featuring in many promotion films about Wrexham.

Students were told about the history of the mayors and the consorts’ chains of office.
