Prynhawn ddoe cawsom sesiwn STEM hwyliog gyda NPT Adult Learning.  Dysgodd Plant ac Oedolion pam a sut mae gan rai pethau adwaith cemegol a sut y gallwn newid yr adwaith hwnnw i greu arbrawf hwyliog.  Llawer o losgfynyddoedd byrlymus a photiau ffrwydro y tu allan. 

Yesterday afternoon we had a fun STEM session with NPT Adult Learning.  Children and Adults learned why and how some things have a chemical reaction and how we can alter that reaction to create a fun experiment.  Lots of bubbling volcanoes and exploding pots outside. 

Cynhelwyd Eisteddfod hynod o hwylus yn yr Adran Gynradd ddoe. Mwynheuodd pawb wrth ddathlu ein hiaith, diwylliant a thraddodiadau yn fawr iawn. Dyma rai o’u gwaith celf a chrefft bendigedig.

Lots of fun was had in our Primary Phase Eisteddfod yesterday. Everyone really enjoyed coming together to celebrate our language, culture and traditions. Here is some of their brilliant arts & crafts work.

Cafodd ein plant yn y cyfnod cynradd amser bendigedig wrth ddathlu Dydd Gwyl Dewi yn yr ysgol ddoe. Cawsont wasanaeth ysgol gynradd cyfan gyda llawer o ganu, dawnsio, hwyl a sbri!!

Our primary phase children had a brilliant day celebrating St David’s Day in school yesterday. They had a whole primary phase assembly and enjoyed lots of singing, dancing and fun. Da iawn bawb!

Braf iawn oedd croesawu’r Maer Castell Nedd Port Talbot, Mr Crowley, i Ysgol Baglan heddiw. Pwrpas yr ymweliad oedd dathlu llwyddiant aruthrol gan ein disgyblion wrth gystadlu yn Eisteddfod Caerdydd ar 7 Chwefror.

It was lovely to welcome the Neath Port Talbot Mayor, Mr Crowley, to Ysgol Bae Baglan today. The purpose of his visit was to celebrate the amazing success of our pupils at the recent Eisteddfod Caerdydd.

Gwers brysur arall mewn Dylunio a Thechnoleg. Disgyblion yn mesuro, llifio, nailing, drilio, sandio ac yn y pen draw datrys problemau. Fel arfer sgiliau unigol a thîm rhagorol gyda llawer iawn o frwdfrydedd a ddangosir drwyddi draw, mae dyfodol dylunio Ysgol Bae Baglan yn edrych yn wych. Da iawn chi i gyd!

Another busy lesson in Design and Technology. Pupils measuring, sawing, nailing, drilling, sanding and ultimately problem solving. As usual excellent individual and team skills with a large amount of enthusiasm shown throughout, the future of design at Ysgol Bae Baglan looks great. Well done all!

Mae dosbarth 7SLS wedi bod yn ymchwilio i “Are banana’s really that slippy”, trwy brofi faint o ffrithiant a grëwyd gan bananas, carped, y bwrdd a dŵr sebonllyd.

Class 7SLS have been investigating “Are banana’s really that slippy”, by testing how much friction created by bananas, carpet, the table and soapy water.

Cafodd ein disgyblion Ffotograffiaeth a Thecstilau Blwyddyn 10 ddiwrnod ysbrydoledig ym Mhrifysgol Cymru Y Drindod Dewi Sant! Cawsant y cyfle anhygoel i weithio mewn lleoliad proffesiynol gydag arbenigwyr yn y diwydiant, gan ennill mewnwelediadau gwerthfawr ac archwilio technegau newydd i wella eu sgiliau.

Fel rhan o’r diwrnod, bu’r disgyblion yn gweithio mewn grwpiau gyda Mr. Larkman ac yn cymryd rhan mewn sesiwn ffotograffiaeth gyffrous o amgylch dinas Abertawe. Fe wnaethant archwilio’r farchnad eiconig, gan ddal lluniau trawiadol o gynnyrch Cymreig anhygoel wrth arbrofi gyda chyfansoddiad, goleuo a phersbectif.

Our Year 10 Photography and Textiles pupils had an inspiring day at the University of Wales Trinity Saint David! They had the incredible opportunity to work in a professional setting with industry experts, gaining valuable insights and exploring new techniques to enhance their skills.

As part of the day, pupils worked in groups with Mr. Larkman and took part in an exciting photoshoot around Swansea city. They explored the iconic market, capturing stunning shots of amazing Welsh produce while experimenting with composition, lighting, and perspective.
