St John’s is situated on Conway Road in Colwyn Bay, and the service is expected to finish at 12pm.

Headmaster Simon Smith, said: “It was with great sadness that we learned of Chloe’s tragic death in an apparent work-related accident at a resort in Abersoch.

“Chloe joined the school in Year 9, in Payne House, and was in the words of one member of staff ‘a delightful young woman; sensitive and kind’.

“She thoroughly enjoyed her time in school and was very popular with both her peers and staff.

“Our thoughts must go to her brother Brad too who left in 2014.

“Chloe, particularly, enjoyed her sport: hockey, netball etc. and left in to continue her studies in this field.

“Chloe’s friends, family and all who knew her both in and out of the Rydal Penrhos community are in our thoughts and prayers at this time.”
