Prosiect Pontio

This has been a three years project which concentrated on the Cymraeg and our local area.

224 pupils has taken part in this project  from four local Welsh Medium streams within 4 local Primary school and Key Stage 3 Ffrwd Cymraeg Ysgol Calon Cymru.

In the summer of 2023, we concentrated on creative writing with the poet Tudur Dylan Jones and the author Bethan Gwanas.

In 2024, creative arts was the main theme with the textile designer Anna Pritchard. All the pupils designed a textile which was based on our local history. All the textiles were turned into lampshades with the help of Mrs Becca Price. 

This year the composer Sioned Eleri Roberts worked with 170 pupils over the length of 6 days to compose, perform and record an original piece of music, keeping in mind that we remember 85 years this year since we lost a community on the Epynt. There’s 6 individual pieces (one from each school) and one piece named Adleisiau ein Cynefin (Echos of our habitat) which is a amalgamation of all the pieces.

Prosiect tair blynedd oedd hwn gan ganolbwyntio ar y Gymraeg a’n hardal lleol.

Erbyn hyn mae 224 o ddisyblion o bedair ysgol cynradd a chyfnod allweddol 3 yr ysgol hon wedi bod yn ran o’r prosiect.

Yn haf 2023, buom yn canolbwyntio ar ysgrifennu’n greadigol gyda’r Prifardd Tudur Dylan Jones a’r awdures Bethan Gwanas.

Yn haf 2024, creadigrwydd celfyddydol oedd y canolbwynt gyda’r dylunydd tecstiliau Anna Pritchard  ble aeth y disgyblion ati i ddylunio ar ddefnydd gan gadw mewn cof, hanes a diwylliant yr ardal hon.  Gwahoddwyd cyn ddisgybl yr ysgol hon, Mrs Becca Price, i ddod atom a throi y defnydd yn lamplenni

Eleni, haf 2025, gwahoddwyd Sioned Eleri Roberts atom dros gyfnod o 6 diwrnod i’n harwain i gyfansoddi, perfformio a recordio gwaith gwreiddiol gan gofio eu bod yn 85 mlynedd ers iddym golli cymdeithas Yr Epynt.   Mae 6 darn unigol (un o bob ysgol) ac yna un perfformiad sef Adleisiau ein Cynefin sy’n gyfanwaith o’r holl weithiau unigol.
