BLWYDDYN 2

Ymweliad Dosbarth Capel Llwyd â Chartref Nyrsio Tŷ Panteg

Ddoe, ymwelodd rhai o'n disgyblion Blwyddyn 2 â Chartref Nyrsio Panteg i ganu i'r preswylwyr. Perfformiodd y plant ychydig o ganeuon cyfarwydd, ac roedd yn hyfryd gweld y preswylwyr yn ymuno, yn gwenu, ac yn mwynhau'r gerddoriaeth.

Ar ôl y canu, cafodd y plant gyfle i sgwrsio â rhai o'r preswylwyr. Roedd yn ymweliad syml ond ystyrlon, ac yn gyfle gwych i'r disgyblion gysylltu ag aelodau'r gymuned leol.

Diolch i staff Cartref Nyrsio Panteg am wneud i ni deimlo mor groesawgar, a da iawn i Flwyddyn 2 am gynrychioli'r ysgol mor feddylgar.

Diwrnod Symud i Fyny Olaf

Heddiw oedd ein Diwrnod Symud i Fyny olaf y flwyddyn, gyda disgyblion yn treulio amser yn eu dosbarthiadau newydd, yn dod i adnabod eu hathrawon a'u harferion yn barod ar gyfer mis Medi. Roedd hwyl hyfryd o amgylch yr ysgol wrth i blant ymgartrefu yn eu mannau newydd gyda hyder cynyddol.

Roeddem hefyd yn falch iawn o groesawu llawer o'n plant Derbyn newydd a'u teuluoedd, a ymunodd â ni am ginio yn neuadd yr ysgol. Roedd yn gyfle gwych i deuluoedd gael teimlad o'r diwrnod ysgol ac i gwrdd â staff mewn lleoliad hamddenol. Gwnaeth y plant yn wych - llawer o blatiau glân a wynebau hapus!

Isla ac Ymddiriedolaeth y Dywysoges Fach

Yr wythnos diwethaf, gwnaeth Isla benderfyniad hardd ac anhunanol pan gafodd ei gwallt yn fyr i'w roi i Ymddiriedolaeth y Dywysoges Fach. Mae'r elusen hon yn darparu wigiau gwallt go iawn i blant a phobl ifanc sydd wedi colli eu gwallt eu hunain oherwydd triniaeth canser neu gyflyrau eraill.

Mae ystum meddylgar Isla yn dangos pa mor bwerus y gall caredigrwydd a thrugaredd fod, ac ni allem fod yn fwy balch ohoni am wneud gwahaniaeth mor ystyrlon. Nid yn unig y mae hi wedi rhoi rhywbeth anhygoel o bersonol, ond mae hi hefyd wedi gosod esiampl ddisglair o empathi a dewrder i bawb yn ein cymuned ysgol. Da iawn, Isla!

BLWYDDYN 6

Hyfedredd Beicio

Dros y pythefnos diwethaf, mae ein disgyblion Blwyddyn 6 wedi bod yn cymryd rhan mewn hyfforddiant hyfedredd beicio - dysgu sut i aros yn ddiogel ac yn hyderus ar y ffyrdd. O wirio eu beiciau a'u helmedau i ymarfer signalau ac ymwybyddiaeth o'r ffyrdd, mae'r plant wedi dangos ffocws a phenderfyniad gwych.

Mae'r sesiynau wedi bod yn rhan werthfawr o baratoi ar gyfer mwy o annibyniaeth wrth iddynt symud ymlaen i'r ysgol uwchradd. Rydym wedi ein plesio'n fawr gan eu hagwedd gadarnhaol a'u hyder cynyddol.

Diolch yn fawr i'r staff am eu harweiniad, a da iawn i Flwyddyn 6 am gymryd yr hyfforddiant mor ddifrifol a rhoi eu gorau glas iddo.

YEAR 2

Capel Llwyd Class’ Visit Panteg House Nursing Home

Yesterday, some of our Year 2 pupils visited Panteg Nursing Home to sing for the residents. The children performed a few familiar songs, and it was lovely to see the residents joining in, smiling, and enjoying the music.

After the singing, the children had a chance to chat with some of the residents. It was a simple but meaningful visit, and a great opportunity for the pupils to connect with members of the local community.

Thank you to the staff at Panteg Nursing Home for making us feel so welcome, and well done to Year 2 for representing the school so thoughtfully.

Final Moving Up Day

Today marked our final Moving Up Day of the year, with pupils spending time in their new classes, getting to know their teachers and routines ready for September. There was a lovely buzz around the school as children settled into their new spaces with growing confidence.

We were also delighted to welcome many of our new Reception children and their families, who joined us for dinner in the school hall. It was a great opportunity for families to get a feel for the school day and to meet staff in a relaxed setting. Lots of clean plates and happy faces!

Isla and the Little Princess Trust

Last week, Isla made a beautiful and selfless decision when she had her hair short to donate it to the Little Princess Trust. This charity provides real hair wigs to children and young people who’ve lost their own hair due to cancer treatment or other conditions.

Isla’s thoughtful gesture shows just how powerful kindness and compassion can be, and we couldn’t be prouder of her for making such a meaningful difference. Not only has she donated something incredibly personal, but she’s also set a shining example of empathy and courage for everyone in our school community. Well done, Isla!

YEAR 6

Cycling Proficiency 

Over the past fortnight, our Year 6 pupils have been taking part in cycling proficiency training — learning how to stay safe and confident on the roads. From checking their bikes and helmets to practising signalling and road awareness, the children have shown great focus and determination.

The sessions have been a valuable part of preparing for greater independence as they move on to secondary school. We’ve been really impressed with their positive attitude and growing confidence.

A big thank you to the staff for their guidance, and well done to Year 6 for taking the training so seriously and giving it their best effort.
