WW2 Medal / Rationing

Last week children in Mr Williams' class visited Holyhead secondary school.  The theme of this term is WW2.  Years 4 and 5 were given the opportunity to design and make a medal for an evacuee for being brave.  The children were learning how to use a CAD programme and learn how a later printer will cut out their finished product. 
Year 6 were busy cooking.  They were given the recipe to 'Rock cakes'.  The children were busy preparing these cakes only using food that was available during the second world war.  Everyone was surprised to learn you could get more than 12 rock cakes out of a little amount of flour and 1 egg. 


Yr wythnos diwethaf aeth dosbarth Mr Williams i Ysgol Uwchradd Caergybi. Fel rhan o thema'r dosbarth ar Yr Ail Ryfel Byd, cafodd  plant blwyddyn 4 a 5 gyfle i gynllunio a chreu medal i faciwi fel arwydd o ddewrder. Yn ystod y prynhawn, dysgodd y plant sut i ddefnyddio rhaglen CAD ac hefyd darganfod  sut y mae modd i brintar laser dorri allan gwaith gorffenedig.

Cafodd plant blwyddyn 6 gyfle i goginio. Cawsant riset ar sut i wneud 'Rock Cakes' drwy ddefnyddio cynhwysion a oedd ar gael yn ystod y rhyfel. Cafodd pawb syndod o weld fod modd gwneud deuddeg cacen allan o ychydig iawn o flawd ac un wy.

Padre Stu

This morning we were visited by Padre Stu. With Thanksgiving fast approaching, we were told a story that made us think about just how lucky we are when talking about food.  He made us think of all those miles a pizza has travelled when you break up all those nice toppings and which country they came from.  Thank you for your visit and we hope to see you again soon.

Bore heddiw, a ninnau ar drothwy'r Wyl Ddiolchgarwch, ymwelodd Padre Stu a'r ysgol. Adroddodd stori a wnaeth i ni sylweddoli pa mor ffodus yr ydym fod bwyd yn cyrraedd ein byrddau mor rhwydd. Diolch Padre am alw a gobeithiwn eich gweld eto yn fuan.

Beic Smwddi/ Smoothie Bike


Daeth Mr Gwyndaf Pritchard o Eden i'r ysgol ganol yr wythnos gyda'i feic smwddi. Dangosodd i ni sut i wneud smwddi bendigedig a hynny drwy defnyddio pwer y beic. Roedd y beic wedi dod yr holl ffordd o Galifornia ac roedd yn ffordd wych o gadw'n iach ac yn heini.

Mr Gwyndaf Pritchard from Eden brought his smoothie bike to school and showed us how to make man/woman powered smoothies.The bike came all the way from California and was an excellent way to keep fit and healthy. The smoothies were yummy!



Gwneud cawl/Making soup

Cafodd plant Dosbarth 2 hwyl yr wythnos diwethaf yn gwneud cawl llysiau. Cafodd y llysiau eu torri fyny yn fan ac yna eu berwi gyda dwr a stoc cyw iar. Roedd yn flasus dros ben!

We made some delicious vegetable soup in Class 2. We chopped the vegetables and boiled them up with water and chicken stock. It was delicious!

Mr Campell and Dave

Ddiwedd yr wythnos daeth Mr Campbell a Dave i'r dosbarth i egluro i ni sut i gadw'n saff ar y mynyddoedd. Roedd gan Dave dair cot, sannau tew, esgidiau cryf a het gynnes. Roedd y plant wedi gwirioni o glywed fod y ddau yn gweithio gyda'r Tywysog William!

Mr Campell and Dave came to see us to explain about how to keep safe in the mountains. Dave had three coats! He also had thick socks, boots and a warm hat. The children were very excited to learn that Mr Campell and Dave work with Prince William!

Help for Heroes


Dydd Gwener daeth ymwelydd arbennig i’r ysgol , sef Hero’r Arth. Daeth i’r ysgol i godi ymwybyddiaeth o’r gwaith da mae cymdeithas 'Help for Heroes' yn ei wneud yn helpu aelodau'r lluoedd arfog sydd wedi eu hanafu. Ymwelodd â phob dosbarth ac roedd y plant wrth eu bodd yn ysgwyd llaw âg ef!

On Friday a very special visitor came to our school - Hero the Bear, the official mascot of the ‘Help for Heroes' charity.  He came to raise awareness of the marvellous work ‘Help for Heroes’ does to help our current wounded. He visited every class and the children were delighted to meet him. 

Old Trafford


On Wednesday night, 15 children from years 3 to 6 visited Old Trafford in Manchester to watch Manchester United play Newcastle in the Capital One Cup. This was an amazing opportunity for many children to watch their first ever live football match.

The children sat high above the goal in the Stratford End, which meant they could see the whole length of the pitch. The first goal was scored just before half time with two more goals in the second half. The final score was 2-1 with a victory for the home side. Even though it was a late night, the children thoroughly enjoyed themselves. They behaved brilliantly and were a credit to Ysgol Y Tywyn.

Neithiwr cafodd 15 o ddisgyblion y cyfle i fynd i wylio gêm beldroed yn Old Trafford rhwng Manchester United a Newcastle yn y Capital One Cup. Roedd hyn yn gyfle arbennig i rai disgyblion weld gêm fyw am y tro cyntaf.
Roedd ein seddau y tu ol i'r gol. Golygai hyn ein bod yn gallu gweld y cae ar ei hyd. Sgoriwyd y gôl gyntaf i Manchester United ychydig cyn hanner amser gyda dwy gôl arall yn yr ail hanner gan wneud y sgor terfynol yn 2-1 gyda buddugoliaeth i’r tim cartref.
Er ei bod yn noson hwyr, roedd pawb wedi mwynhau yn fawr. Yn ogystal a hyn roedd y plant wedi ymddwyn yn wych, ac yn glod i'r ysgol.
