Ffocws ar Hawliau Plant UNICEF: Yr Hawl i Iechyd a Chymorth (Erthygl 24)

Mae gan bob plentyn yr hawl i’r safon iechyd uchaf posib a mynediad i wasanaethau iechyd. Mae Ysgol Panteg yn hybu iechyd a lles trwy addysgu am iechyd meddwl, cadw’n iach a deall emosiynau. Gwneir hyn fel rhan o’n cwricwlwm o ddydd i ddydd mewn rhyw ffordd neu’i gilydd ac fe’i gwelir yr un mor bwysig (ac mewn rhai ffyrdd hyd yn oed yn bwysicach) na phynciau traddodiadol llythrennedd a mathemateg. Rydym yn cefnogi gydag atgyfeiriadau pan fo angen cymorth ar blant a theuluoedd. Rydym yn gweithio gyda’r GIG i gynnal archwiliadau iechyd rheolaidd a rhaglenni brechu i sicrhau bod ein plant yn cadw’n iach. Mae ein cegin yn Nhorfaen yn gweini prydau cytbwys ac iach, ac rydym yn hyrwyddo gweithgaredd corfforol a lles meddyliol. Rydym hefyd yn darparu dosbarthiadau iechyd sy'n ymdrin â phynciau fel maeth, hylendid ac iechyd emosiynol. Trwy flaenoriaethu iechyd ein plant, rydym yn eu helpu i ddatblygu arferion iach a fydd o fudd iddynt gydol eu hoes.

Adroddiadau Ysgol - ATGOF OLAF

Rydym yn gwerthfawrogi rhoi'r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf i deuluoedd am gynnydd eu plant. Ddoe, anfonwyd adroddiadau ysgol i bob rhiant a gwarcheidwad.

Hyd yn hyn eleni, mae teuluoedd wedi cymryd rhan mewn dau ‘Gyfarfod Cynnydd a Lles Disgyblion’ ac wedi cael adroddiad trosolwg un dudalen. Yr adroddiad a rannwyd ddoe oedd adroddiad llawn eich plentyn. Wrth edrych ymlaen, byddwn yn anfon diweddariad un dudalen arall ar ddiwedd tymor yr Haf.

I'r rhai sydd ag unrhyw gwestiynau neu ymholiadau ar ôl adolygu'r adroddiad llawn, rydym wedi neilltuo amser ddydd Mercher yma, i'w trafod. Cysylltwch ag athro eich plentyn drwy ClassDojo i drefnu galwad ffôn gyfrinachol. Sylwch yn garedig, am resymau preifatrwydd, ni allwn gael trafodaethau wrth ddrysau’r ysgol.

Yn olaf, os yw amgylchiadau eich teulu wedi newid a’ch bod angen copïau ychwanegol o’r adroddiad, rhowch wybod i athro dosbarth eich plentyn drwy ClassDojo. Rydym yn fwy na pharod i sicrhau bod yr holl rieni yn cael eu hysbysu a’u cefnogi.

BLWYDDYN 6

Y Cwsg Mawr - ATGOF OLAF

Mae ein taith Blwyddyn 6 yn dod i fyny o ddydd Mercher, 9fed o Ebrill i ddydd Gwener, 11eg o Ebrill. Yn unol â chyfathrebiadau ClassDojo, byddwn yn cynnal sesiwn Holi ac Ateb ddydd Mercher, 2 Ebrill am 4:30pm. Bydd hyn yn cynnwys cyflwyniad ar y deithlen, rhestr pacio a chwestiynau cyffredin eraill.

Gofalwyr Ifanc

Beth yw Gofalwr Ifanc?

Mae gofalwr ifanc yn blentyn neu berson ifanc sy’n ysgwyddo cyfrifoldebau sylweddol i ofalu am rywun yn ei deulu neu yn ei gartref oherwydd salwch, anabledd, heriau iechyd meddwl, neu am lawer o resymau eraill. Gall y cyfrifoldebau hyn amrywio o helpu gyda thasgau dyddiol fel coginio a glanhau, i ddarparu cefnogaeth emosiynol a hyd yn oed rheoli gofal meddygol.

Gall bod yn ofalwr ifanc fod yn hynod werth chweil, ond mae hefyd yn dod â heriau unigryw. Weithiau gall cydbwyso dyletswyddau gofal gyda gwaith ysgol, cyfeillgarwch ac amser personol deimlo'n llethol. Efallai y bydd angen cymorth ychwanegol ar ofalwyr ifanc i sicrhau eu lles a’u llwyddiant addysgol.

Pam Mae'n Bwysig Rhoi Gwybod i Ni?

Yn Ysgol Panteg, rydym wedi ymrwymo i ddeall a chefnogi ein holl blant, gan gynnwys y rhai sy’n ofalwyr ifanc. Drwy roi gwybod i ni, gallwn weithio gyda'n gilydd i ddarparu cymorth wedi'i deilwra i'ch plentyn - boed hynny trwy gymorth academaidd, mynediad at adnoddau, neu gynnig clust i wrando yn unig.

Os ydych yn credu bod eich plentyn yn ofalwr ifanc, peidiwch ag oedi cyn rhoi gwybod i ni. Gyda'n gilydd, gallwn sicrhau bod ganddynt yr offer a'r arweiniad sydd eu hangen i ffynnu.

Gallwch gysylltu â Miss Alana Parry [alana.parry@ysgolpanteg.cymru] neu fi i rannu’r wybodaeth hon yn gyfrinachol neu i drafod unrhyw bryderon. Gadewch i ni weithio gyda'n gilydd i wneud eu taith yn llyfnach.

UNICEF Children's Rights Focus: Right to Health and Support (Article 24)

Every child has the right to the highest possible standard of health and access to health services. Ysgol Panteg promotes health and wellbeing by teaching about mental health, keeping healthy and understanding emotions. This is done as part of our curriculum on a daily basis in some form or another and is seen just as important (and in some ways even more important) than the traditional subjects of literacy and mathematics. We support with referrals when children and families need support. We work with the NHS to conduct regular health check-ups and inoculation programmes to ensure that our children stay healthy. Our Torfaen kitchen serves balanced and healthy meals, and we promote physical activity and mental wellbeing. We also provide health classes that cover topics such as nutrition, hygiene, and emotional health. By prioritising the health of our children, we help them develop healthy habits that will benefit them throughout their lives.

After School Clubs

This is the final week of after-school clubs. Therefore, there are no after school clubs next week. The family courses still continue.

New after-school clubs will be announced next week and a booking link will be sent to you. These will begin again on Tuesday, 6th of May.

School Reports - FINAL REMINDER

We value keeping families fully up-to-date on their children's progress. Yesterday, school reports were sent out to all parents and guardians.

So far this year, families have participated in two ‘Pupil Progress and Wellbeing Meetings’ and received a one-page overview report. The report shared yesterday was your child’s full report. Looking ahead, we’ll be sending out a further one-page update at the end of the Summer term.

For those who have any questions or queries after reviewing the full report, we’ve set aside time this Wednesday, to discuss them. Please contact your child’s teacher via ClassDojo to arrange a confidential phone call. Kindly note that for privacy reasons, we are unable to have discussions at the school doors.

Finally, if your family circumstances have changed and you require additional copies of the report, please let your child’s class teacher know via ClassDojo. We are more than happy to ensure all parents remain informed and supported.

YEAR 6

The Big Sleep - FINAL REMINDER

Our Year 6 trip is coming up on Wednesday, 9th of April to Friday, 11th of April. As per ClassDojo communications, we will be holding a Question and Answer session on Wednesday, 2nd of April at 4:30pm. This will include a presentation on the itinerary, packing list and other frequently asked questions.

Young Carers

What Is a Young Carer?

A young carer is a child or young person who takes on significant responsibilities to care for someone in their family or household due to illness, disability, mental health challenges, or for many other reasons. These responsibilities can range from helping with daily tasks like cooking and cleaning, to providing emotional support and even managing medical care.

Being a young carer can be incredibly rewarding, but it also comes with unique challenges. Balancing caregiving duties with schoolwork, friendships, and personal time can sometimes feel overwhelming. Young carers may need extra support to ensure their well-being and educational success.

Why Is It Important to Let Us Know?

At Ysgol Panteg, we are committed to understanding and supporting all our children, including those who are young carers. By informing us, we can work together to provide tailored support for your child—whether that's through academic assistance, access to resources, or simply offering a listening ear.

If you believe your child is a young carer, please don’t hesitate to let us know. Together, we can ensure they have the tools and guidance needed to thrive.

You can contact Miss Alana Parry [alana.parry@ysgolpanteg.cymru] or myself to confidentially share this information or discuss any concerns. Let’s work together to make their journey smoother.
