Yale College, Wrexham - Current Status

Current Status

The Grove Park Campus has eight buildings, five of which are named after rivers in North Wales: Alun, Brenig, Clywedog, Dyfrdwy and Elwy. For convenience, these are always referred to as A, B, C, D and E Blocks. The shell of the Memorial Hospital now houses the Art and Multi-Media departments, as well as the College's own Gallery (which hosts visiting artists), and the Regional Print Centre. This is known as MAB (Memorial Arts Building) or more simply, M Block. The old Grove Park school is G Block. There is a two storey Foodcourt, which houses Café Iâl (the College Refectory), a "Lifestyle Bar" (Café) for staff and students, a Student Café, Common Room and the studio of Radio Yale.

Yale has a second campus at Bersham Road, Wrexham (53°02′28″N 3°00′22″W / 53.0412°N 3.0060°W / 53.0412; -3.0060 (Yale College, Wrexham, Bersham Road Campus)), which handles the vocational courses, such as engineering, plumbing and bricklaying; this recently underwent an extensive redevelopment. Up until 2006, the college also possessed additional capacity in Roxburgh House, Wrexham, however the majority of the building was handed back to the vendor due to lease expiration. Previously the building handled apprenticeships and training.

    If the current is right, one can drift to success.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    His Majesty’s Government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country.
