Gwybodaeth / Information
'My School App'
Ein bwriad yw sicrhau sianeli cyfathrebu cadarn er mwyn bod rhieni yn derbyn gwybodaeth yn amserol am ddigwyddiadau a materion addysgol Ysgol Beca. Rydym wedi buddsoddi yn yr ap 'MySchoolApp' a gwelwyd bron pob rhiant yn ymrwymo i'r cyfrwng cyfathrebu. Dyma yw ein sianel cyfathrebu gyda rhieni sy'n caniatau i'r staff rhannu dyddiadau allweddol, newyddion a negeseuon allweddol gyda chymuned yr ysgol. Gwerthfawrogwn pe bai pob rhiant yn ymrwymo i'r dull yma o gyfathrebu. Pe bai argyfwng ysgol, dyma'r cyfrwng byddwn yn ei ddefnyddio i gyfathrebu gyda rhieni a staff. Ein bwriad yw gwneud defnydd llawn o'r ap felly anogaf i bob rhiant ddefnyddio'r ap. Bydd rhaid gwneud cais drwy ebost am fynediad i'r ap ac mae cymorth ar gael o'r swyddfa ar ddefnydd yr ap pe bai angen.
Our intention at ysgol Beca has been to ensure robust communication channels to ensure that parents receive timely information about events and educational matters. We have invested in the 'MySchoolApp' app and have seen the majority of parents commit to this medium of communication. This is our communication channel with parents which allows the staff to share key dates, news and key messages with the school community. We would appreciate it if all parents would commit to this method of communication. If there is a school emergency, this is the medium we would use to communicate with parents and staff. Our intention is to make full use of the app so I encourage all parents to use the app if you are not currently doing so. An application must be made by email for access to the app and help is available from the office on the download and use of the app if needed.

Gweithgareddau Gwyliau'r Haf / Summer Holidays Activities
Gatiau Newydd / New Gates
Yn ystod wythnosau gwyliau, fe fydd gatiau newydd yn cael eu gosod gan y Cyngor Sir. Efallai bydd hyn yn rhwystro mynediad i'r safle yn ystod y gwyliau.
During the holiday weeks, new gates will be installed by County Council. This may prevent access to the site during the holidays.
Ymweliad Athletwr / Athlete Visit
Mabolgampau / Sportsday
Bu mabolgampau Ysgol Beca yn llwyddiant ysgubol, gyda chyfranogiad brwdfrydig gan yr holl blant. Mwynhaodd y plant y gweithgareddau amrywiol a'r cystadlu cyfeillgar. Hoffem ddiolch i’r rhieni a’r gymuned ehangach am eu cefnogaeth yn ystod y bore. Diolch am gymorth y Gymdeithas Rhieni ac Athrawon (CRhA). Buont yn darparu te a choffi i rieni a lolis iâ ar gyfer yr holl ddisgyblion, a gwerthfawrogwyd y rhain yn fawr ar ôl y digwyddiad. Trefnodd y Gymdeithas Rhieni ac Athrawon hefyd y te prynhawn ar gyfer y diwrnod mabolgampau cyntaf yr oedd yn rhaid ei ganslo. Rwy’n siŵr y byddech yn cytuno eu bod wedi’u cyflwyno’n dda ac yn flasus iawn. Mae cymuned yr ysgol yn gwerthfawrogi cefnogaeth a chyfraniadau’r Gymdeithas Rhieni ac Athrawon, ynghyd â chymorth cyllid grant cymunedol, a helpodd i sicrhau llwyddiant y digwyddiad.
Roedd pob cyfranogwr ar y diwrnod yn enillydd. Fodd bynnag, yr unigolion a dderbyniodd wobrau oedd: Mason, Letti, Gwen, Carys ac Osian. Y tŷ buddugol (tîm) oedd Tudur.
Ysgol Beca's sports day was a great success, with enthusiastic participation from all the children. They enjoyed the various events and the spirit of friendly competition. We would like to thank the parents and wider community for their support during the morning. We would like to thank the Parent Teacher Association (PTA). They provided teas and coffees to parents, and ice lollies for all the pupils, which were much appreciated after the event. The PTA also organised the afternoon teas for the first scheduled sports day that had to be canceled. I'm sure that you would agree that they were well presented and very tasty. The school community appreciates the PTA's support and contributions, along with the community grant funding support, which helped ensure the success of the event.
Every participant on the day was a winner. However, the individuals who received awards were: Mason, Letti, Gwen, Carys and Osian. The winning house (team) was Tudur.
Diwrnod Iechyd a Lles y Ffederasiwn / Federation Health and Wellbeing Day
Roedd ein Diwrnod Ffederasiwn Iechyd a Lles yn ddigwyddiad gwych lle'r oedd plant yn cymryd rhan mewn gweithgareddau chwaraeon amrywiol ac yn mwynhau cymryd ciciau cosb wedi'u mesur am gyflymder. Rydym yn ddiolchgar am yr arian a godwyd o’r gweithgaredd cic gosb, a fydd yn cefnogi’r ysgol i brynu offer ac adnoddau. Diolch i bawb a gymerodd ran ac a gyfrannodd at lwyddiant y diwrnod.
Our Health and Wellbeing Federation Day was a fantastic event where children engaged in various sports activities and enjoyed taking speed-measured penalty shots. We are grateful for the money raised from the penalty shot activity, which will support the school in purchasing equipment and resources. Thank you to everyone who participated and contributed to the success of the day.
Y Gic Gosb Gyflymaf / The Fastest Penalty Shot
Daeth cwmni 'Football First' i gynnal gweithgaredd cic gosb gyda'r disgyblion, a chafodd pob un ohonynt hwyl yn cicio'r bêl mor gyflym â phosib i mewn i'r gôl. Yn ogystal, codwyd £275 ar gyfer prynu adnoddau i'r ysgol, ac rydym yn ddiolchgar am ymdrech y disgyblion a'r rhieni i wneud hyn yn bosibl.
The 'Football First' company came to hold a penalty kick activity with the pupils, and all of them had fun kicking the ball as fast as possible into the goal. In addition, £275 was raised to buy resources for the school, and we are grateful for the effort of the pupils and parents to make this possible.
Ymweliad Parc Bywyd Gwyllt Manor / Manor Wildlife Park Visit
Roedd ymweliad yr ysgol â Pharc Bywyd Gwyllt Manor yn Ninbych-y-pysgod yn brofiad cofiadwy i'r holl blant. Cawsant gyfle i weld amrywiaeth o anifeiliaid yn agos, gan wella eu dealltwriaeth o fywyd gwyllt a chadwraeth. Mwynhaodd y disgyblion yr arddangosion rhyngweithiol a'r teithiau o amgylch y parc, gan wneud y diwrnod yn hwyl ac yn addysgiadol. Mwynhawyd y daith yn fawr gan y disgyblion, ac mae’r ysgol yn estyn ei diolch i’r staff am gynnal profiad gwerthfawr a'r CRhA am gefnoi'n ariannol gan dalu am y bws.
The school's visit to Manor Wildlife Park in Tenby was a memorable experience for all the children. They had the opportunity to see a variety of animals up close, improving their understanding of wildlife and conservation. The pupils enjoyed the interactive exhibits and the tours around the park, making the day fun and educational. The trip was greatly enjoyed by the pupils, and the school extends its thanks to the staff for maintaining a valuable experience and the PTA for supporting financially by paying for the bus.
Cyflwyniad i'r Delyn / An Introduction to the Harp
Cafodd ddisgyblion yr ysgol gyfle cyffrous i gymryd rhan mewn gweithdy telyn, wnaeth cyflwyno'r offeryn hudolus hwn iddynt mewn modd hyfryd a difyr. Arweiniwyd y gweithdy gan delynor oedd nid yn unig yn arddangos seiniau amrywiol y delyn ond hefyd yn arwain y disgyblion trwy weithgareddau ymarferol, gan ganiatáu iddynt dynnu'r llinynnau a chreu eu halawon eu hunain. Roedd y sesiwn rhyngweithiol yn cynnwys gemau cerddorol hwyliog, perfformiad, a hyd yn oed hanes byr y delyn, gan ei wneud yn brofiad cynhwysfawr a phleserus. Erbyn diwedd y gweithdy, roedd ein disgyblion nid yn unig wedi’u swyno gan sain unigryw’r delyn ond hefyd wedi’u hysbrydoli, gobeithio, i archwilio eu doniau cerddorol eu hunain ymhellach.
The school's pupils had the exciting opportunity to participate in a harp workshop, which introduced them to this enchanting instrument in a delightfully engaging manner. The workshop was led by a harpist who not only demonstrated the various sounds of the harp but also guided the pupils through hands-on activities, allowing them to pluck the strings and create their own melodies. The interactive session included fun musical games, a performance, and even a brief history of the harp, making it a comprehensive and enjoyable experience. By the end of the workshop, our pupils were not only fascinated by the harp's unique sound but also inspired, hopefully, to explore their own musical talents further.
Ffair Haf Ysgol Beca a'r Gymuned / Ysgol Beca and Community Summer Fayre
Bu ffair haf ein hysgol yn llwyddiant, gan ddod â’r gymuned gyfan ynghyd am ddiwrnod llawn llawenydd ac ysbryd cymunedol. Rydym yn ddiolchgar i’r Gymdeithas Rhieni ac Athrawon am eu cefnogaeth, y Cyngor Cymuned, a’r grant cymunedol hael a wnaeth y digwyddiad gwych hwn yn bosibl a’r llu o bobl a helpodd ar y diwrnod. Roedd y diwrnod yn frith o weithgareddau cyffrous, gan gynnwys gweithdai syrcas, gweithgareddau ysgol goedwig, ac amrywiaeth o stondinau. Dwi’n siwr fod pawb wedi mwynhau perfformiadau gan Corlan, oedd yn canu gyda’r plant, a Bois y Frenni, oedd yn swyno pawb gyda’u cerddoriaeth. Mwynhaodd deuluoedd amrywiaeth o stondinau, castell neidio bywiog, a llwybr bwgan brain deniadol ychwanegodd elfen o hwyl i bob oed. Roedd y digwyddiad hwn nid yn unig yn darparu diwrnod cofiadwy i'r holl fynychwyr ond hefyd yn cryfhau'r cysylltiadau rhwng yr ysgol a'r gymuned.
Our school's summer fayre was a success, bringing together the entire community for a day filled with joy and community spirit. We are grateful to the PTA for their support, the community council, and the generous community grant that made this wonderful event possible and the many people that helped on the day. The day was brimming with exciting activities, including circus workshops, forest school adventures, and an array of stalls. I'm sure all enjoyed performances by Corlan, who sang with the children, and Bois y Frenni, who captivated everyone with their music. Families enjoyed a variety of stalls, a lively bouncy castle, and an engaging scarecrow trail that added an element of fun for all ages. This event not only provided a memorable day for all attendees but also strengthened the bonds between the school and the community.
DOSBARTHIADAU / CLASSES
Dosbarth Carn Gyfrwy
A dyna ni, rydym wedi cyrraedd diwedd y flwyddyn! Mae wedi bod yn flwyddyn prysur iawn a chredaf fod pawb yn edrych ymlaen at wyliau haf haeddiannol.
Rydym wedi datblygu ein sgiliau Mathemateg a Rhifedd tymor yma trwy ffocysu ar ymarfer ein sgiliau adio a thynnu. Mae pawb wedi treial eu gorau glas wrth ymarfer bondiau rhif, adio a thynnu rhif dau-ddigid, tri- ddigid a hyd yn oed ambell un yn ymgeisio i rifau pedwar-ddigid. Da iawn chi!
Hanner tymor yma, rydym wedi denu ein ffocws tuag at greu poster ar gyfer ein ffair haf. Cafodd y disgyblion disgrifiad o beth oedd angen cynnwys ac erbyn y diwedd mi oedd sawl poster anhygoel a chreadigol gyda ni yn y dosbarth. Roedd yn bleser gweld yr elfen o annibyniaeth yn disgleirio trwy a phawb yn rhoi 100%.
Ein thema tymor yma yw ‘Weithiau rwy’n teimlo…’. Ar draws yr ysgol rydym wedi ymgymryd â’r cyfleoedd dysgu i’r eithaf. Yn nosbarth Carn Gyfrwy rydym wedi bod yn ffocysu ar ein corff a beth sy’n cadw ni yn iach. Penderfynom edrych tu hwnt i ddeiet cytbwys a bwyta’n iach, ac edrych ar sut mae elfennau eraill yn chwarae rôl megis ein teuluoedd a ffrindiau, hobïau ac ymarfer corff. Roedd yn bleser casglu amryw o syniadau a safbwyntiau pawb.
Rydym wedi bod yn datblygu ein sgiliau creadigol yn ystod ein sesiynau Llun Llanast trwy greu coron naturiol i ddangos ein personoliaeth a chreu Elfed yr eliffant gan ddefnyddio sialc.
Am ein trip diwedd blwyddyn ymwelon ni â Manor Park. Cawsom ddiwrnod prysur iawn ac mi oedd llawer ohonom yn cysgu ar y bws ar y ffordd gartref. Gwelsom lawer o anifeiliaid gan gynnwys teigr, cwningod mawr, lemur a chawsom gyfle i fwydo’r wallabies!
Hoffwn gymryd yr amser i ddiolch i’r disgyblion, staff a rhieni am fy nghroesawu i Ysgol Beca tros y flwyddyn ddiwethaf. Mae wir wedi bod yn bleser i weithio gyda chi gyd. Byddaf yn gweld eisiau’r ysgol pob dydd a dymunaf bob lwc i bawb. Mwynhewch bob eiliad o wyliau’r haf!
There we have it; we have reached the end of the year! It has been a very busy year and I believe that everyone is looking forward to a well-deserved summer holiday!
We have been developing our mathematics and numeracy skills this term by focusing on developing our addition and subtraction skills. Everyone has tried their best when practicing our number bonds, adding and subtracting two-digit numbers, three-digit numbers and some have even attempted four-digit numbers. Well done!
This half term, we have focused on creating a poster for our summer fair. The children were given a brief description of what to include and the result included many fantastic and creative posters. It was a pleasure to see elements of independence shining through and everyone giving 100%.
Our theme this term is ‘Weithiau rwy’n teimlo…’ Across the school we have been undertaking learning opportunities to the maximum. In Carn Gyfrwy, we have been focusing on our bodies and what keeps them healthy. We decided to look further than a balanced diet and eating healthy and look at how other elements play a crucial role e.g. our families and friends, hobbies and exercise. It was a pleasure to collect various ideas and opinions from everyone.
We have been developing our creative skills within our Llun Llanast sessions by creating nature crowns to show our personalities and using chalk to create Elfed the elephant.
For our end of year trip we visited Manor Park. We had a very busy day and many of us were sleeping on the bus on the way home! We saw many animals including tigers, giant rabbits, lemurs and we also had the opportunity to feel the wallabies!
I would like to take the opportunity to thank the pupils, staff and parents for welcoming me to Ysgol Beca over this past tear. It has truly been a pleasure to work with everyone. I will miss the school every day and I wish the best of luck to everyone. Enjoy every second of the summer holidays!
Dosbarth Cwm Cerwyn
Mae’r tymor yma wedi bod yn un hynod o brysur yn Nosbarth Cwm Cerwyn! Mae Blynyddoedd 5 a 6 wedi mynychu diwrnodau pontio yn ei hysgolion cyfun ac wedi mwynhau’r profiadau sydd ar gael ynddynt! Fe wnaeth Claire Jones, chwaraewr telyn Frenhinol, ymweld ag Ysgol Beca a rhoi blas o'r delyn a phiano i blant yr ysgol. Hefyd, fe ymwelodd y taflwr ddisgen ryngwladol, James Tomlinson, ac roedd yn fraint cael clywed am hanes ei fywyd ym myd chwaraeon a chael sesiwn ymarfer corff gyda’r athletwr. Fe wnaeth yr ysgol codi dros £800 ar gyfer Sport for Champions, diolch o galon am eich cefnogaeth!
Y tymor yma fe wnaethom ymgymryd â phrosiect podlediad, roedd angen ystyried pwnc oedd yn agos at ein calonnau, cynllunio beth oedd yn cael ei drafod ar y podlediad ac yna defnyddio meddalwedd Adobe i greu logo a recordio podlediad. Roedd y dosbarth yn hynod o lwcus i gael actor Cymreig a seren podlediadau, Mike Bubbins, i wneud cyfarfod ar-lein Zoom lle wnaeth ateb cwestiynau’r dysgwyr am greu podlediad. Roedd y dosbarth wedi cymryd rhan mewn gwers fyw Llaeth Preseli lle wnaethom ddysgu am daith cynnyrch lleol er mwyn creu hufen iâ blasus.
Roedd y tymor yma hefyd yn llawn gweithgareddau chwaraeon! Cymerodd Ysgol Beca rhan mewn diwrnod ffederasiwn gydag Ysgol Bro Brynach, wedi selio ar ddatblygu sgiliau pêl-droed a mesur cyflymder ein ciciau gyda Football First. Roedd Dosbarth Cwm Cerwyn hefyd wedi cystadlu yng nghystadleuaeth criced Hendy-Gwyn, ac roedd yn gyfle arbennig i ddatblygu sgiliau newydd a datblygu’n criced. Roedd ein mabolgampau hefyd wedi cymryd rhan ym mis Mehefin ac roedd yn ddiwrnod ffantastig, gyda Tudur yn fuddugol mewn cystadleuaeth agos tu hwnt.
This term has been a very busy one for us here in Dosbarth Cwm Cerwyn! Years 5 and 6 have had several transition days and they have really enjoyed experiencing what their prospective comprehensive schools will have to offer them. We were visited by Claire Jones, the Royal Harpist, who gave the children a taster of the Welsh harp and the keyboard. We also had the honour of Welsh discus thrower James Tomlinson coming into school to tell us all about his life in the world of sport, and to put the children through their paces in a circuit workout. The school raised over £800 for Sport for Champions, thank you so much for your support!
This term we took on a podcasting project, where we had to think of a topic that we were passionate about, plan what would be discussed on the podcast and use Adobe software to design a logo and record the podcast. We were also incredibly pleased when famous Welsh actor and podcaster, Mike Bubbins, agreed to speak to us via Zoom and answer our questions about podcasting. The class took part in a live lesson hosted by Llaeth Preseli, teaching us about the journey to producing tasty ice cream using very local ingredients.
This term we also had a variety of sporting activities! We took part in a football skills-based Federation Day with Ysgol Bro Brynach where we were able to develop our skills and test the speed of our fastest kick with Football First. Dosbarth Cwm Cerwyn also competed in the Whitland cricket tournament, and it was a great opportunity to develop new skills and improve our cricket. Our Sports Day took place during June, and it was a fantastic day, with Tudur finally coming out on top in a close fought contest.
Hwyl Fawr Ffrindiau Ysgol Beca / Goodbye Friends of Ysgol Beca
Ar ddiwedd blwyddyn academaidd mae wastad angen dweud hwyl fawr i aelodau teulu Ysgol Beca.
At the end of an academic year it is always necessary to say goodbye to members of the Ysgol Beca family.
Rydym yn dymuno pob hwyl a dymuniadau gorau i ddisgyblion Blwyddyn 6 sydd yn symud ymlaen i anturiaethau newydd yn eu hysgolion uwchradd. Pob hwyl i Carys, Gwen, Reilly, Tomos, Osian, Ethan a Charlie. Cofiwch am eich amser yn Ysgol Beca, y profiadau rydych wedi'u derbyn, y cyfeillgarwch rydych wedi adeiladu a'r hwyl a sbri gawsoch. Fe welwn ni chi cyn hir!
We wish Year 6 pupils all the very best as they move on to new adventures in their secondary schools. Good luck to Carys, Gwen, Reilly, Tomos, Osian, Ethan a Charlie. Remember your time at Ysgol Beca, the experiences you have received, the friendships you have built and the fun times you have had. We'll see you soon!
Rydym yn ffarwelio â Miss Phillips, a fydd yn gadael Ysgol Beca ar ddiwedd y flwyddyn academaidd hon. Mae Miss Phillips wedi bod gyda ni am y flwyddyn ddiwethaf, ac yn ystod y cyfnod hwn mae hi wedi gwneud cyfraniadau sylweddol i gymuned ein hysgol. Mae ei brwdfrydedd a’i hymroddiad wedi’u gwerthfawrogi’n fawr, ac rydym yn ddiolchgar am yr effaith gadarnhaol a gafodd ar ein disgyblion. Bydd Miss Phillips yn dechrau swydd ddysgu newydd yn Sir Benfro ym mis Medi. Dymunwn bob llwyddiant iddi yn ei rôl newydd.
Hefyd, bydd Mrs. Twose yn ymddeol ar ddiwedd tymor yr haf hwn. Mae Mrs. Twose wedi bod yn rhan annatod o'n hysgol am yr 16 mlynedd diwethaf, ac mae ei hymroddiad i addysg a lles ein disgyblion wedi bod yn wirioneddol ryfeddol. Mae hi wedi cyffwrdd â bywydau llawer o ddisgyblion a theuluoedd gyda'i hymrwymiad a'i charedigrwydd. Rydym yn hynod ddiolchgar am ei gwasanaeth a dymunwn y gorau iddi yn ei hymddeoliad.
Bydd croeso cynnes bob amser i Mrs. Twose a Miss Phillips petaent yn ymweld â ni yn y dyfodol.
We say goodbye to familiar faces that have been part of Ysgol Beca's family. Miss Phillips, our Foundation Phase teacher, will be leaving Ysgol Beca at the end of this academic year. Miss Phillips has been with us for the past year, and during this time she has made significant contributions to our school community. Her enthusiasm and dedication have been greatly appreciated, and we are grateful for the positive impact she has had on our pupils. Miss Phillips will start a new teaching post in Pembrokeshire in September. We wish her every success in her new role.
Also, Mrs. Twose retires at the end of this summer's term. Mrs. Twose has been an integral part of our school for the past 16 years, and her dedication to the education and welfare of our pupils has been truly remarkable. She has touched the lives of many pupils and families with her commitment and kindness. We are extremely grateful for her service and wish her the best in her retirement.
There will always be a warm welcome to Mrs. Twose and Miss Phillips should they visit us in the future.
