Popeth yn Dda yn Ysgol Bro Pedr! / All Good at Ysgol Bro Pedr!

Mae Ysgol Bro Pedr wedi derbyn yr adroddiad ESTYN gorau o ran yr ysgolion 3-19 sydd wedi eu harolygu yng Nghymru hyd

yma. Yn dilyn yr arolwg diweddar gan ESTYN, y corff arolygu ysgolion a cholegau yng Nghymru, derbyniodd yr Ysgol 3-19 yn

Llanbed arfarniad ‘Da / Da’ am berfformiad cyfredol a rhagolygon yr Ysgol ar gyfer y dyfodol. Ers sefydlu’r Ysgol Gydol Oes, sy’n

darparu ar gyfer disgyblion o oed meithrin/derbyn i’r chweched dosbarth ym Medi 2012, mae ESTYN wedi adrodd ar

‘berfformiad cryf’ a ‘lefelau disgwyliadau uchel’ yr Ysgol. Dywed y Pennaeth Jane Wyn: “Mae’r adroddiad ESTYN llwyddiannus

yma yn adlewyrchu gwaith caled y disgyblion, y staff a chefnogaeth y rhieni, y llywodraethwyr a’r gymuned leol. “Rydym yn

hapus iawn ein bod wedi derbyn arfarniad ‘Da’ ar draws y meysydd allweddol y mae ESTYN yn eu mesur, gan gynnwys safonau,

lles, addysgu ac arweinyddiaeth yr Ysgol. “Mae gweithio fel Ysgol Gydol Oes wedi ein galluogi ni i sicrhau bod pob disgybl yn

cael trosglwyddiad esmwyth o’r cynradd i’r uwchradd, ac rydym wedi gweld cynnydd cyson yn y canlyniadau. “Pan unwyd Ysgol

Gynradd Ffynnonbedr and Ysgol Gyfun Llanbedr Pont Steffan ym Medi 2012, ni oedd yr ysgol 3-19 gyntaf yn y sir ac, yn wir,

gyda’r cyntaf yng

Nghymru.

“Pedair blynedd

yn ddiweddarach

mae’n grêt ein

bod wedi derbyn

adroddiad mor

bositif wrth

ESTYN, ac rydym

yn ffocysu yn

nawr ar adeiladu

ar y seiliau

cadarn yma er

mwyn sicrhau

bod yr Ysgol yn

mynd o nerth i

nerth.”

YSGOL Bro Pedr has received the best ESTYN report for a 3 to 19 school in Wales to date. Following its recent inspection by

ESTYN, the inspectorate body for schools and colleges in Wales, the Lampeter school was awarded a ‘Good-Good’ rating for

current performance and future prospects. Since it became an ‘all through’ school, catering for pupils from nursery/reception

age to sixth-form in September 2012, ESTYN has reported ‘strong performance’ and ‘high expectation levels.’ Headteacher

Jane Wyn said: “The successful ESTYN report is testimony to the hard work of the pupils, staff and the support of the parents,

governors and the local community. “We are really pleased that we have been rated ‘Good’ across all the key areas measured

by ESTYN, including standards, well-being, teaching and leadership at the school. “Working as an all through school has

enabled us to ensure that every pupil has a smoother transition from primary to secondary, and we have seen constant

improvements in the results. “When Ysgol Gynradd Ffynnonbedr and Ysgol Gyfun Llanbedr Pont Steffan merged in September

2012, we were the first 3 to 19 school in the county, and amongst the first all-through schools in Wales. “Four years on, it is

great to receive such a positive report from ESTYN, and we are focused now on building on these strong foundations, to ensure

that the school goes from strength to strength.”

Gweithdy Barddoni / Poetry Workshop

Daeth Tudur Phillips i’r ysgol yn ystod Tymor y Gaeaf er mwyn gwneud

gweithdau clocsfit gyda’r disgyblion. Gweithdy

llawn hwyl lle bu’r disgyblion yn dysgu sut i

glocsio a cadw’n heini wrth wneud hynny.

Tudur Phillips came to the school during the

winter term to deliver a clocsfit workshop. A fun-

filled workshop where pupils learnt how to

dance with traditional clogs and keep fit at the

same time.

Anni Llyn also came to the school to hold a poetry workshop with some of the pupils. They had a lot of fun

creating poems and playing with words as they thought up some ideas for their poetry.

Diolch yn fawr i Fudiad yr Urdd am eu cymorth wrth i ni drefnu gweithdau mor diddorol.

We wish to thank the Urdd for helping us organize such interesting workshops.

Daeth Anni Llyn i’r ysgol hefyd i gynnal gweithdu barddoni gan rhai ddisgyblion. Cafodd y disgyblion dipyn o hwyl yn llunio cerddi a chwarae gyda geiriau wrth feddwl am syniadau ar gyfer barddoni.

Ym Mis Tachwedd, bu criw o ddisgyblion blwyddyn 8 a llond llaw o ‘swogs’ blwyddyn 12 ar daith i wersyll yr Urdd, Glan-llyn, ac yn cadw cwmni iddynt oedd Mrs Delor James a Miss

Hedydd Jones. Cafwyd amser anhygoel lle manteisiwyd ar bob cyfle

i ymwneud â phob gweithgaredd gydag egni, brwdfrydedd, hwyl a

pharch at eraill. Cafodd pawb llawer o hwyl a gwlychfa allan ar y llyn. Lwcus

bod pawb wedi dod â thywel. Yn ogystal, cafwyd mwynhad wrth gymryd rhan mewn gweithdy

gramadeg, sesiwn creu rhaglen radio, adeiladu raft, y cwrs rhaffau, heb anghofio am y disgo gwisg ffansi. Roedd y ‘swogs’ hefyd yn gwneud cwrs OCN mewn Arweinyddiaeth

Grwpiau Iau a hynny’n llwyddiannus dros ben. Bu’n daith ragorol lle

gwelwyd pob un ar ei orau a bydd atgofion am daith lwyddiannus arall

yn fythgofiadwy. Diolch i’r Urdd.

Glan Llyn

In November, pupils from year 8 and a handful of ‘swogs’ from year 12 went on a trip to the Glan-llyn Urdd Camp, accompanied by Mrs Delor James and Miss Hedydd Jones. They had a fantastic time, making the most of every activity, even as some ended up falling into the lake. It was very lucky that they all had

towels. They were lucky to attend a very useful grammar course, a session on radio presenting, raft building, the high ropes course, without forgetting the fancy dress disco. The ‘swogs’ were also busy completing their OCN course in Group Leading for Junior Pupils, they all passed with flying colours. A

fantastic trip overall, with everyone on their best behaviour. They will have fond memories for years to come. Thank you Yr Urdd.

Ar y 10fed o Dachwedd dechreuodd bws cyfan o ddisgyblion cynhyrfus ac egnïol eu taith o Ysgol Bro Pedr i weld ddeuntythion Llundain.

Cafodd disgyblion gyfle i ymweld ag arddangosfeydd rhyngweithiol yr Amgueddfa Wyddoniaeth cyn cael swper blasus yn Pizza Express. I orffen y noson cafwyd cyfle i weld y sioe gerdd anhygoel ’Matilda’ sydd wedi ennill sawl gwobr. Rwyf erioed wedi gweld cymaint o bizza’s, losin a diodydd swigod yn cael eu bwyta mewn diwrnod!

Roedd pawb wedi mwynhau’r sioe gerdd yn fawr iawn, er iddo annog plant yn agored i fod yn ddrwg neu ‘be a little bit naughty’; er nad oes angen annog blwyddyn 8 o gwbl! Serch hynny, roedd pob disgybl wedi ymddwyn yn arbennig o dda yn ystod y daith, a gyda lwc rhoddodd neb madfall yn niod y naill un o’r athrawon (ac yn yr un modd, nid oedd yr un athro neu athrawes wedi eu temtio i daflu plentyn wrth eu gwallt drwy’r ffenestr agosaf).

Bore cynnar oedd yn ein disgwyl ar ddydd Gwener wrth i ni dechrau am Stiwdio Warner Brothers i weld set ffilmio Harry Potter. Cyn gynted ag agorodd drysau’r Neuadd Fawr gwasgarodd disgyblion blwyddyn 8 i ganol y miloedd o ymwelwyr eraill, y props a’r setiau amrywiol, rhai hyd yn oed yn mwynhau’r cyfle i hedfan ar gefn ysgubell tra bod eraill yn cael gwersi ar Defence against the Dark Arts...felly byddwch yn ofalus athrawon, mae nifer o wrachod a dewiniaid medrus iawn yn ein plith.

Roedd y daith yn llwyddiant anhygoel ac rydym yn browd iawn o ddisgyblion blwyddyn 8.

On the 10th November a coach full of excited and energetic students set off from Ysgol Bro Pedr to the bright lights of

London.

Pupils were treated to a visit to the new interactive exhibits at the Science Museum, followed by an evening meal at Pizza

Express before heading off to see the award winning musical ‘Matilda’. I have never seen so many pizzas, sweets and fizzy

drinks consumed in one day!

We all thoroughly enjoyed the musical, despite the fact that it openly encouraged children to ‘be a little bit naughty’; year 8

need little encouragement in that department! No, it has to be said that the group behaved impeccably and thankfully no one

put a newt into the teacher’s drink (and

likewise, not one teacher was tempted

to swing a child by their hair through

the nearest window).

Friday morning saw an early start as we

all set off for the Warner Brothers

Studios to visit the set of Harry Potter.

As soon as the doors to the Great Hall

opened year 8 scattered amongst the

many thousands of props and sets,

some even enjoying broomstick flying

and lessons in how to fight against the

Dark Arts...so teachers beware, we

have some highly skilled witches and

wizards in our midst..

Hallgrimskirkja. Roedd yn adeilad prydferth a thal a cawsom y cyfle i grwydro tu fewn yn ogystal.

Y diwrnod canlynol, fe aethom i Barc Cenedlaethol Thingvellir lle gwelsom y ffin adeiladol rhwng plât

Ewrasia a Gogledd America. Roedd hi’n ddiddorol gweld hyn ar ôl i ni ei astudio yn yr ysgol. Cyfle wedyn i

gael hoe a chael hufen iâ wedi ei wneud ar fferm Efsti-Dalur. Wedyn, fe wnaethom ymweld â’r Geysir lle

roedd hi’n gyfle gwych i gael llun gyda un o ryfeddodau natur. Fe wnaethom hefyd ymweld â rhaeadr

Gullfoss â oedd yn agoriad llygad i bawb gan ei fod mor fawr. Rhaeadr arall gwnaethom ymweld â oedd

Skogafoss ond roedd hwn ychydig yn llai.

Y diwrnod canlynol, gwnaet..hom ymweld â Reynishverfi, sef traeth oedd wedi ffurfio o ganlyniad i erydi-

ad basalt. Caiff hefyd ei adnabod fel y ‘Black Sand Beach’. Nesaf, gwnaethom ymweld â rhewlif Sol-

heimajokull. Roedd hwn yn agoriad llygad i ni wrth i ni weld newid hinsawdd ar waith. Roedd y rhewlif

hwn wedi encilio 30 metr mewn 3 mlynedd. Nesaf, fe cawsom y cyfle i gerdded tu ôl rhaeadr. Yn wir

roedd hyn yn brofiad gwych! Fe wnaethom ymweld â Gorsaf Bŵer Hellisheioi, sef gorsaf bŵer geothermol

- 6ed mwyaf y byd. Roedd yn ddiddorol dysgu sut roedd dŵr yn cael ei newid i drydan.

Y diwrnod canlynol oedd ein diwrnod diwethaf yng Ngwlad yr Iâ. Yn y bore, gwnaethom ymweld â go-

leudy hynaf Gwlad yr Iâ, a adeiladwyd yn 1878. Yng nghanol y gwynt a’r glaw, ymwelon ni â’r “Bridge Be-

tween Two Continets” sef y ffin go iawn rhwng plât Ewrasia a Gogledd America. Amser nawr i fynd tuag

adref ac roedd y blinder wedi bwrw pawb. Roedd pawb yn falch i gyrraedd yn ôl yn Llambed wedi pum

diwrnod prysur a diddorol ar yr ynys tân a Iâ.

Taith Gwlad yr Ia / Iceland Trip

From October 21st to the 25th (2016), 41 students from Ysgol Bro

Pedr embarked on a journey to Iceland, Scandinavia. We left on

Friday, the anticipation from months of waiting finally ending as

we began our exciting journey.

We flew from Gatwick Airport in the evening, arriving late at night

in Keflavik, with a wet and windy weather front to greet us. Later, we reached our first hotel to get a

good night’s rest before exploring Iceland!

On the First day of our visit, we firstly travelled out to the famous ‘Blue Lagoon’. The lagoon is located

further south, and the source of its warm water comes from geothermal energy. I and my fellow students

thoroughly enjoyed the warm Silica and Sulphur rich waters, which are said to be good to the skin too!

Iceland has a volcanic nature due to its location upon a tectonic boundary (the mid-Atlantic Ridge), hence

it’s the most tectonically active country in the world.

Our holiday also included visiting many physical

attractions, such as waterfalls and a volcanic

creator. My personal favourite was the

Solheimajokull glacier, and we all experienced

first-hand the beauty of this frozen wonder! (It’s

safe to say the Geographers were extremely

happy!!). The Glacier is said to have retreated

significantly in the last 30 years, leaving behind a

gauge and creating a huge valley.

We also visited numerous waterfalls on our trip around rural Iceland, leaving behind the humble city

lights of Reykjavik. Here, we visited a waterfall of the name ‘Salajafoss’, a twin tiered drop with gushing

falls and strong currents. It was something to be seen!

There was also much Nordic history on our trip, with our tour guide, named ‘Siggy’ and brilliant bus driver,

giving us regular insights to the Icelandic legends. A significant number of the population believe in Elves,

Fairies and Trolls. It’s even said that such beings are consulted when building new infrastructures, such as

roads and bridges! We also learnt of the ‘Viking Runes’, typical of Nordic history.

Finally, I would like to say a huge thank you on behalf of all students to those who organised the trip, and

to those who accompanied us. It was a wonderful experience!
