Ysgol Gymraeg Bro Teyrnon

Ysgol Gymraeg Bro Teyrnon moved to the Brynglas site in September. Previously, the centre –now a satellite ofMaesEbbwSchool– was part of an English-language primary school.

Parents at the centre were consulted about the new arrangements and these discussions have been on-going.

As the children in Ysgol Gymraeg Bro Teyrnon are encouraged to speak Welsh at all times, including at break times, it was agreed the ASD pupils would eat lunch in the centre until all parents had expressed a preference.

During the autumn term it was suggested that they could use the hall for lunch after Ysgol Gymraeg Bro Teyrnon pupils but the majority of parents at that time preferred the status quo.

Parents are able to discuss any concerns with the schools and changes could be made in future if that is their wish.

Both schools enjoy an excellent relationship and share many facilities. Plans for further collaboration between the two schools are already well-advanced.

Teachers at the centre have not reported any negative impact or deterioration in behaviour since the new arrangements began.

IMPORTANT NEWS – CHANGES TO ORDERING SCHOOL DINNERS ARRANGEMENTS 

NEWYDDION PWYSIG –NEWIDIADAU I DREFNIDAU ARCHEBU CINIO YSGOL

Annwyl  Rieni /Warchodwyr, 

Rydyn ni’n mynd i symud i system o archebu cinio wythnos ‘mlaen llaw. Ar hyn o bryd mae’r gegin yn darparu dewis o ddau bryd sydd ar y fwydlen ond mae’n amhosib sicrhau bod pawb yn cael eu dewis cyntaf oherwydd  fe fydde hyn yn golygu llawer o wastraff bwyd. Trefniadau :- Ar Ddydd Llun yr 21ain o Hydref fe fydd angen i chi :-

1. ddanfon amlen cinio ar fore Ddydd Llun ar gyfer yr wythnos 21ain -25ain o Hydref;
2. ddanfon amlen arall yn cynnwys arian yr wythnos ar ôl hanner tymor 6ed -8fed o Dachwedd. Mae’n rhaid i chi ‘sgrifennu ar yr amlen beth yw dewis eich plentyn ar gyfer pob diwrnod maent am gael cinio ysgol neu fe allwch chi argraffu’r daflen sydd ar ochr arall y llythyr hwn o wefan yr ysgol;
3. o hynny ‘mlaen fe fyddwch yn danfon amlen bob bore Llun wythnos ‘mlaen llaw gan nodi dewis eich plentyn. Ni fydd modd archebu cinio yng nghanol yr wythnos – mae hyn ‘run peth a’r trefniadau presennol .

Plant cinio am Ddim :- Fe fydd angen i chi ddanfon nodyn i ddweud pa fwyd mae eich plentyn am gael wythnos ‘mlaen llaw fel uchod. Gwerthfawrogwn fod angen talu am bythefnos ar yr un pryd ond dyma pam rydyn ni wedi cychwyn y trefniadau ar ôl hanner tymor oherwydd bod yna 2 ddiwrnod hyfforddiant mewn swydd sy’n golygu wythnos fer o  3 diwrnod.

Dear Parent / Guardians,                                                                          

We are moving to a school dinners pre-ordering system. Currently the kitchen prepares the two options that are on the menu but it is impossible to ensure everyone has their first choice because this would mean a significant amount of food waste. Arrangements: – On Monday the 21^st of October you will need to :-

1. send an envelope on Monday morning for the week  21^st  -25^th  of October;
2. send another envelope containing money for the week after half term the 6^th -8^th  of November. You must write on the envelope what is your child’s choice for every day they wish to have school dinners or you can print the form that is on the reverse of this letter from the school website;
3. from then on send an envelope every Monday a week in advance and note your child’s choice. You will not be able to order meals mid-week – this is the same as the current arrangements.

Free School Dinners:- You will need to send a note to request your child’s choice of a main meal a week in advance as above. We appreciate that you need to pay for a fortnight at the same time but this is why we are implementing the changes after half term as there are two teacher training days, which means there is a short week of three days.

Cofiwch ein bod yn casglu bwyd ar gyfer Banc Bwyd Casnewydd yr wythnos hon.    

Remember we are collecting food for the Newport Food Bank this week.

Yr eiddoch yn gywir,        Yours Sincerely,

An artist will visit the school to work with the children. We would like everyone to have the opportunity to contribute their ideas and the children will then short list designs for the artist. We’ve included a template on the back of this letter for you to record your designs. Record all your ideas and we’ll look forward to go on a Christmas tree trail. If you would like to present many designs – more the merrier. Note your name on the line underneath the template.

Please return your ideas by Monday the 21st of October.
