Ffurflenni Ysgol / School Forms - Schoop
Byddwn yn danfon allan ffurflenni caniatâd digidol trwy ap yr ysgol – ‘Schoop’ erbyn diwedd yr wythnos. Byddwch yn derbyn neges ym mis Medi ar gyfer 2 ffurflen ganiatâd. Ffurflen gyffredinol bydd y gyntaf, yr ail bydd ar gyfer trsoglwyddo diwedd dydd. Ni fydd unrhyw ffurflenni casglu data yn cael eu hanfon allan eleni. Eich dyletswydd gofal chi yw rhoi gwybod i’r ysgol am unrhyw newidiadau e.e. ffôn symudol a chyfeiriadau cartref. Anfonwch y cyfan i gyfeiriad e-bost generig yr ysgol ar swyddfa@yggpontardawe.npt.school os oes unrhyw newidiadau.
We will be send out the digital consent forms via the school app – ‘Schoop’ by the end of the week. You will receive messages in the new term for 2 consent forms. The first will be a general consent form, second for handover arrangements. There will be no data collection forms sent out this year. It is your duty of care to inform the school of any changes e.g mobile telephone numbers and home addresses. Please send all to the school generic email address at swyddfa@yggpontardawe.npt.school if any changes.
Gwersi Offerynnol / Instrumental Lessons
Os hoffech i’ch plentyn gychwyn gwersi offerynnol eleni, gadewch i ni wybod. Cofiwch, fel rhan o’r ddarpariaeth, gellir benthyg offerynnau am ddim.
If you would like your child to take up instrumental lessons, please let us know. Remember, these lessons can also include a free loan of an instrument.

Presenoldeb / Attendance
Mae presenoldeb yn rhan bwysig iawn o fywyd yr ysgol. Ein targed eleni yw 95%.
Attendance is a very important part of school life. Our school target is 95%.
Ymweliadau Addysgol / Educational Visits
Fel y gwyddoch, mae ymweliadau addysgol a phrofiadau uniongyrchol yn rhan ganolog i’n darpariaeth gwricwlaidd fel ysgol. Rydym wedi trefnu holl gyrsiau preswyl am eleni ar gyfer Bl 3-6. Byddwn yn cysylltu gyda rhieni’r adran Iau gyda gwybodaeth bellach yn fuan. Eleni bydd angen talu blaendaliadau mwy cyn cadarnhau ffigurau presenoldeb terfynol ar gyfer pob ymweliad preswyl. Mae hyn oherwydd nad yw disgyblion yn mynychu sydd wedi arwain at yr ysgol yn talu'r swm llawn ar golled ariannol.
As you know, educational visits and first-hand experiences are central to our curricular provision as a school. We’ve already organised all residential visits this year for yrs 3-6. We will contact junior parents with further information very soon. This year we will require larger deposits to be paid before confirming final attendance figures for all residential visits. This is due to pupils not attending which has resulted in the school paying the full amount at a financial loss.
