TWO schools in Caernarfon have closed today (December 12), citing concerns regarding the icy conditions in the area.
Ysgol Pendalar and Ysgol Maesincla have closed for the day as freezing conditions are deemed a threat to the health and safety of students and staff members.
In a social media post, primary school Ysgol Maesincla said: "Due to the ice in and around the school yard, the school will be closed today due to health and safety. Please take care."
