CODI £3,000 I LEPRA

Canmolwyd disgyblion yr ysgol yn ddiweddar wrth i’r ysgol godi £2,000 i’r elsusen
LEPRA. Rhyfeddwyd yr elusen, sydd yn codi arian i bobl yn dioddef o’r gwahanglwyf
gan ymdrechion yr ysgol i godi’r swm anhygoel. Canmolwyd yn arbennig chwech o
ddisgyblion chweched dosbarth yr ysgol a gyfrannodd at y gwaith trefnu fel rhan
o’u hastudiaethau y cwrs BTEC Gwasanethau Cyhoeddus, yn eu plith Lauren Williams,
Natasha Pritchard, Claire Sheppard, Rhys Jones, Kayleigh Challenger a Phillip
Withers. Bu’r chwech yn ddigon dewr i abseilio dros yr elusen yng Nghanolfan Awyr
Agored Ynyshywel. Dewiswyd yn anffodus diwrnod gwlyb a gwyntog, ond er yr
elfennau llwyddodd y chwech i gyflawni’r abseil. Meddai Philip o Fargoed, “Roeddwn yn
hynod nerfus y noson flaenorol ond llwyddias i fwynhau’r profiad yn fawr a roeddwn yn
falch iawn wrth imi weld faint o arian a godwyd dros LEPRA!”

CWM RHYMNI PUPILS RAISE OVER £3,000 FOR LEPRA
Pupils from Ysgol Gyfun Cwm Rhymni have been praised for their amazing efforts by
raising over £3,000 for LEPRA. The charity which raises money for people suffering
with leprosy were staggered by the hard working efforts of several sixth form
students who arranged a kick-boxing work-out for their fellow pupils at the school
during the lunch-hour. The sixth-formers, Lauren Williams, Natasha Pritchard,
Claire Sheppard, Rhys Jones, Kayleigh Challenger and Phillip Withers, students of
the BTEC Public Services course also arranged an abseil at Ynyshywel Outdoor
Pursuit Centre. Despite strong winds and the driving rain, all six students were
brave enough to undertake the abseil. Philip commented, “I was very nervous the
night before the abseil, but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and was pleased
that we raised so much money for LEPRA
