I had a lovely visit to Newtown Primary School last Thursday, where I spoke with Year 1 pupils about my role. It’s important that even the youngest children know there are people who will listen to them and stand up for their rights.

Cefais ymweliad hyfryd ag Ysgol Gynradd Newtown ddydd Iau diwethaf, lle siaradais â disgyblion Blwyddyn 1 am fy rôl. Mae’n bwysig bod hyd yn oed y plant ieuengaf yn gwybod bod ‘na bobl yno i wrando arnynt ag i eirioli eu hawliau.

Wonderful to join the Church in Wales Schools Conference as a keynote speaker. The theme of equity and excellence reflected many of the issues we hear about through our office, including racism, bullying, mental health and safeguarding. The day ended on a high note with a fantastic musical performance from pupils at All Saints Church in Wales School.

Roedd hi’n hyfryd ymuno â Chynhadledd Ysgolion yr Eglwys yng Nghymru fel siaradwr gwadd. Roedd thema cydraddoldeb a rhagoriaeth yn adlewyrchu llawer o’r materion rydyn ni’n clywed amdanyn nhw drwy ein swyddfa, gan gynnwys hiliaeth, bwlio, iechyd meddwl a diogelu. Daeth y diwrnod i ben gyda pherfformiad cerddorol gwych gan ddisgyblion Ysgol yr Eglwys yng Nghymru, yr Holl Saint.

Rydym yn recriwtio Pennaeth Allgymorth ac Ymgysylltu!

Rydym yn chwilio am uwch arweinydd i helpu i gyflawni uchelgeisiau Strategaeth Tair-blynedd newydd Comisiynydd Plant Cymru: Gwireddu Hawliau Plant.

Bydd y rôl hon yn chwarae rhan allweddol yn:

- Cynyddu ein cyrhaeddiad i blant ledled Cymru
- Cryfhau ymgysylltiad â grwpiau heb gynrychiolaeth ddigonol
- Sicrhau bod lleisiau plant yn arwain at newid ystyrlon mewn polisi ac ymarfer

Byddwch yn gweithio fel rhan o’n Tîm Rheoli Uwch, gan arwain ein swyddogaeth Cyfranogiad a llunio sut rydym yn cysylltu â phlant, pobl ifanc a rhanddeiliaid ledled Cymru.

Os ydych chi’n angerddol am hawliau plant ac mae gennych chi brofiad mewn allgymorth, ymgysylltu ac arweinyddiaeth, byddem wrth ein bodd yn clywed gennych chi.

“𝙒𝙚 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙪𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚 - 𝙥𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙚 𝙢𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙜𝙤𝙤𝙙 𝙘𝙝𝙤𝙞𝙘𝙚𝙨.”

Neges bwerus gan blant a phobl ifanc, a rannwyd gydag Aelodau’r Senedd ddoe. Roedd y digwyddiad yn gyfle da i drafod sut y gallwn gydweithio i sicrhau bod lleisiau plant yn llywio penderfyniadau yng Nghymru.

Diolch yn fawr i’r plant a phobl ifanc am greu’r breichledau a gwaith celf arbennig.

🗣️ English:
A powerful message from children and young people, which was shared with Members of the Senedd yesterday. The event was a good opportunity to share how we can work together to ensure that children’s voices guide decisions in Wales.

Many thanks to the children and young people for creating the wonderful bracelets and artwork.
