Nodyn Atgoffa am Wyliau Hanner Tymor
Wrth i ni gyrraedd diwedd yr hanner tymor hwn, hoffem atgoffa teuluoedd bod yr ysgol yn cau ar gyfer gwyliau hanner tymor ar ddiwedd yr wythnos hon.
Bydd y plant yn dychwelyd i'r ysgol ddydd Mawrth, 3 Tachwedd, gan fod dydd Llun, 2 Tachwedd, yn ddiwrnod hyfforddi i staff – felly bydd yr ysgol ar gau i ddisgyblion.
Gobeithiwn y bydd ein holl deuluoedd yn mwynhau egwyl dawel a phleserus, ac edrychwn ymlaen at groesawu pawb yn ôl, wedi adfywio ac yn barod ar gyfer yr hanner tymor newydd.

Her Domino Blychau Grawnfwyd – Apêl y Cynhaeaf
Roedd cyffro mawr yn yr ysgol heddiw wrth i ddisgyblion ddod at ei gilydd ar gyfer her domino blychau grawnfwyd, fel rhan o’n Apêl y Cynhaeaf! Diolch i haelioni teuluoedd, casglwyd cannoedd o flychau grawnfwyd i gefnogi banciau bwyd lleol. Cafodd y blychau eu trefnu’n ofalus ledled yr ysgol, cyn cael eu gwthio drosodd mewn un rhes enfawr o ddominos!
Er bod yr her yn llawer o hwyl, roedd hefyd yn helpu’r plant i ddeall pwysigrwydd cefnogi eraill yn ein cymuned. Hoffem ddiolch i’r holl deuluoedd am eu rhoddion hael; byddant yn gwneud gwahaniaeth gwirioneddol i bobl a theuluoedd lleol sydd mewn angen.

Ymweliad â'r Senedd
Ddoe, cafodd aelodau o'n Cynghorau Ysgol gyfle i gwrdd â chynrychiolwyr o'r Senedd fel rhan o sesiwn yn archwilio democratiaeth yng Nghymru. Dysgodd y disgyblion fwy am sut y gwneir penderfyniadau, rôl cynrychiolwyr etholedig, a phwysigrwydd cael llais yn eu cymunedau. Roedd yr ymweliad yn gyfle gwych i'r disgyblion fyfyrio ar eu rolau eu hunain o fewn ein Cynghorau Ysgol, ac i ystyried sut y gallant gynrychioli barn eu cyd-ddisgyblion yn effeithiol.

Tickled Pink
Diolch enfawr i'n tîm arlwyo gwych, a bobodd ddetholiad o fisgedi a chacennau bach pinc blasus heddiw, er mwyn codi ymwybyddiaeth a chefnogi ymgyrch 'Tickled Pink' Torfaen. Roedd y danteithion yn boblogaidd iawn ymhlith disgyblion a staff fel ei gilydd, gan helpu i dynnu sylw at achos pwysig! Cododd y gegin £199.40!

Potes Hudol
Mwynhaodd ein plant yn y dosbarthiadau Meithrin a Derbyn 'Ddiwrnod Potes' arbennig iawn, wedi’i ysbrydoli gan stori eu dosbarth, Wwsh ar y Brws. Trwy gydol y dydd, trodd y plant yn creuwyr potes; roeddent yn cymysgu, yn troi ac yn creu eu cymysgeddau hudol eu hunain, yn union fel y cymeriadau yn y stori. Daeth y gweithgareddau cyffrous â’r llyfr yn fyw, gan roi cyfleoedd i’r disgyblion ddatblygu eu hiaith, eu creadigrwydd a’u dychymyg trwy chwarae. Roedd yn hyfryd gweld y plant mor frwdfrydig wrth iddynt archwilio cynhwysion gwahanol, rhannu syniadau a chreu eu swynion hudol eu hunain. Diwrnod gwych o adrodd straeon, dysgu a llawer o hwyl!

Harvest Appeal Domino Challenge
There was great excitement in school today as pupils came together for our Harvest Appeal cereal box domino challenge! Thanks to the generosity of families, we collected hundreds of cereal boxes to support local food banks. The boxes were carefully lined up throughout the school before being toppled in one giant domino run!
While the challenge was great fun, it also helped children understand the importance of supporting others within our community. We would like to thank all families for their kind donations, which will make a real difference to local people and families in need.

Senedd Visit
Yesterday, members of our School Councils had the opportunity to meet with representatives from the Senedd as part of a session exploring democracy in Wales. Pupils learned more about how decisions are made, the role of elected representatives, and the importance of having a voice in their communities. The visit provided an excellent opportunity for pupils to reflect on their own roles within our School Councils and to consider how they can represent the views of their classmates effectively.

Tickled Pink
A huge thank you to our wonderful catering team, who baked a selection of delicious pink biscuits and cupcakes today to raise awareness and support for the Torfaen's Tickled Pink campaign.

Magical Potions in Progress Step 1
Our Nursery and Reception children enjoyed an extra special Potions Day inspired by their class story, Wwsh ar y Brws. Throughout the day, the children became potion-makers, mixing, stirring and creating their own magical concoctions just like the characters in the story. The exciting activities brought the book to life and gave pupils opportunities to develop their language, creativity and imagination through play. It was wonderful to see the children so engaged as they explored different ingredients, shared ideas and created their very own magical spells. A fantastic day of storytelling, learning and lots of fun!
