Croeso

Presenoldeb a Phrydlondeb Attendance & Punctuality Mae’n bwysig bod eich plentyn yn cyrraedd yr ysgol yn brydlon erbyn 9. 00 y. b. Os yn hwyr, mae’n bwysig eich bod yn mynd at y swyddfa i lofnodi os gwelwch yn dda (system IPad newydd) Os yw eich plentyn yn dost, ffoniwch yr ysgol yn y bore i esbonio neu ysgrifennwch lythyr er mwyn iddynt dderbyn y côd ‘absennol gyda chaniatad’. It is important that pupils arrive promptly by 9. 00 a. m. (reading session) If late, please sign in on the IPad at the main entrance. If your child is ill, please phone the school in the morning or write a letter on their return in order for them to receive the code ‘excused with permission’. LG
