@Bristol - Ddoe es i gyda Carwyn a Sinead i @Bristol, sef canolfan 'dwylo arno' gwyddoniaeth ym Mryste. Mae'n dipyn bach fel Tecnicwest ond gyda arbrofion ac offer gwahanol, hefyd mae arddangosfa Bioleg anhygoel yno. Llawer o fathau o anifeiliaid a phlanhigion byw ac hefyd fforest trofannol llawn o ainfeiliaid a phlanhigion. Mae arddangosfa am robotiaid yno a cafodd Carwyn a Sinead llawer o hwyl yn gwneud modelau. Wnaeth Carwyn 2 fodel robot gyda 'Knex'. Wnaeth Sinead rhywbeth o gyfres teledu poblogaidd. Beth yw e? Cliw - Pwy?

Yesterday I took Carwyn and Sinead to @Bristol, which is a 'Hands On' Science Centre in Bristol. It's a little but like Techniquest but with different experiments and equipment, also there's a fantastic Biology exhibition there. Many types of animals and plants and also a tropical rain forest with plants and animals. There is an exhibition of robots there and Carwyn and Sinead had lots of un making models. Carwyn made 2 models with Knex. Sinead made something from a popular TV series. What is it? Clue-Who?

Sinead a phel droed - Sinead and football - Bu Sinead yn ymarfer pel droed gyda thim lleol ers mis Medi diwethaf. Does ganddi ddim llawer o ddawn i chwarae pel droed, mae'n cael trafferth i cicio pel yn effeithiol. Efallai mae awtistiaeth yn cael rhywfaint o effaith arni hefyd does ganddi ddim syniad beth i'w wneud pan mae'r plant eraill yn pasio'r pel rhyngddynt. Hanner ffordd trwy'r tymor y llynedd buodd hi'n colli tymor gyda gweddill y merched tra'n ymarfer oherwydd fyddai neb yn pasio ati hi. Ond un peth am Sinead mae'n ferch heb ofn o gwbl a wnaeth y hyfforddwr sylweddoli bod hi'n fodlon chwarae mewn gol a thaflu ei hunan o gwmpas er mwyn arbed.

Yr wythnos diwethaf wnaeth hi ennill tlws chwaraewraig y gem (gweler llun) i gadw am wythnos ar ol gwneud arbediadau dewr. Mae'n dal yn methu cicio allan, mae'n rhaid iddi gael rhywun arall i wneud hynny ond mae'n deimlad anhygoel pan eich plentyn yn llwyddo tu hwnt i'r disgwyl. Heddiw wnaeth hi adael 4 gol i mewn ond yn erbyn tim oedd yn 2-3 blynedd hyn ac ar ol gwneud 6 arbediad da doedd hyn ddim yn ddrwg o gwbl.

Sinead has been training with a local team since last September. She doesn't have much ability in playing football, and has problems kicking a ball effectively. Maybe autism has got something to do with this also she has not much idea what to do when other children are passing the ball between themselves. Half way through the season she was losing her temper with the other girls because they wouldn't pass the ball to her. But one thing about Sinead is that she has no fear and the trainer realised that she is prepared to throw herself about in goal in order to make saves.

Last week she won the player of the game award (see pic) to keep for a week after making brave saves. She is still unable to kick out, she has to get someone else to do that. It's an incredible feeling when your child does something much better than you expect. Today she let 4 goals but against a team that were 2-3 years older and after making 6 good saves that wasn't bad at all.

Yn ol i'r ysgol - Back to school

Mae'r gwyliau'n drosodd! Mae Sinead yn hapus, pawb arall yn drist. Ers y newyddion diwethaf buon yn arddangosfa 'Dr Who' yn Brighton (gweler lluniau), yn Nyfnaint (ty mam Mary - gweler lluniau o'r traeth) ac yn gwneud llawer o ddim byn cartref. 'Naethon ni lwyddo i goginio 1 bifbyrger yn unig ar noson y barbeciw ond roedd hi'n dal llawer o hwyl, daeth fy nhad ac Esther draw am fwyd.

Mae Carwyn yn ymddangos yn setlo'n iawn yn ei ysgol uwchradd, dim llawer o 'strops', beth bynnag mae'n ddigon hapus i fynd pob diwrnod ac mae Mary yno i helpu fe pob diwrnod. Mae Sinead yn hapus iawn fel arfer i fynd yn ol i'r ysgol a chael rhywbeth i'w wneud i lenwi ei diwrnod. Does dim llawer o frwydrydedd gan Tomas i ddechrau ei waith TGAU ym mlwyddyn 10.

The holidays are over! Sinead is happy, everyone else is sad. Since the last post we have been to the Dr Who exhibition in Brighton (see pictures), to Devon (Mary's mum's house - see pics from the beach) and doing very little otherwise at home. We succeeded in cooking 1 beef burger at our barbeque but it was a lot of fun, my father and Esther came over. Carwyn appears to have settled down well in his secondary school, not too many strops and he seems happy to go every day and Mary's there to help him. Sinead is very happy to go back to school and have something to do to fill her day. Tomas has very little enthusiasm to start his GCSE work in year 10.
