  Llongyfarchiadau mawr i Dîm Cwis Llyfrau Bl 3&4 am gynrychioli'r ysgol gyda chymaint o falchder yn rownd derfynol Cwis Llyfrau Cymru yn Aberystwyth heddiw.

  Hyfryd oedd cael chwarae rygbi yn erbyn hen ffrindiau heddiw wrth i nifer o ysgolion lleol ddod ynghyd i ddangos pa mor dalentog mae ein disgyblion.
