Sustrans Stroliwch a Roliwch / Big Walk and Wheel

Annwyl Rieni/Gofalwyr,

Mae gennym newyddion cyffrous i chi! Rydym yn cymryd rhan yn her Stroliwch a Roliwch Sustrans, yr her cerdded, olwyno, sgwtera a beicio fwyaf rhwng ysgolion y Deyrnas Unedig. Cynhelir yr her rhwng 24 Mawrth- 4 Ebrill. Ni chodir tâl am gymryd rhan a hoffem pe bai pawb yn cymryd rhan.

 Beth sydd angen i chi ei wneud?

 Anogwch eich plentyn/plant i gerdded, defnyddio cadair olwyn, i sgwtera neu feicio i’r ysgol ar gynifer o ddyddiau ag sy’n bosibl.

Cynnwys pawb

Hoffem sicrhau bod pawb yn gallu cymryd rhan yn ymgyrch Stroliwch a Roliwch Sustrans.

Gwyddom y gall fod yn anoddach i rai disgyblion gymryd rhan nag eraill. Os hoffech drafod anghenion penodol eich plentyn/plant ymhellach, cysylltwch â Mrs Oldfield a byddwn yn sicrhau ein bod yn edrych ar sut gall eich plentyn/plant gymryd rhan.

Pam ein bod yn cymryd rhan?

 Mae ymgyrch Stroliwch a Roliwch yn ffordd wych o ymgorffori gweithgarwch corfforol yn nhrefn ddyddiol plant, sy’n bwysig i’w hiechyd corfforol a’u lles meddyliol.

Gall siwrneiau egnïol i’r ysgol helpu i leihau tagfeydd a llygredd aer tu allan i glwydi’r ysgol. Dangosodd Astudiaeth YouGov yn 2021 bod bron i hanner plant y DU yn poeni am lygredd aer ger eu hysgol. A bod plant o’r farn mai teithio’n llesol oedd y ffordd orau i leihau’r lefelau llygredd hyn.

Hefyd, ceir gwobrau gwych i’w hennill bob dydd os byddwn yn cael digon o blant yn cymryd rhan!

 Adnoddau defnyddiol

 I’ch helpu i baratoi, mae Sustrans wedi datblygu canllaw defnyddiol i gerdded, beicio neu sgwtera i’r ysgol, ac mae ar gael am ddim. Mae’n llawn cyngor i’ch helpu i gael siwrne ddiffwdan i’r ysgol. Lawrlwytho: https://www.sustrans.org.uk/sign-up-to-receive-your-free-school-run-guide/

Dear Parents/Carers,

We have some exciting news for you! We are taking part in Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel, the UK’s largest inter-school cycling, walking, wheeling and scooting challenge. The challenge runs from 24 March- 4 April 2025. It’s free to take part and we would love everyone to be involved.

 What do you need to do?

 Encourage your child(ren) to walk, use a wheelchair, scoot or cycle to school on as many days as possible during the event.

Including everyone

We want to make sure that everyone can get involved in Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel.

We know it may be more difficult for some pupils to take part than others. If you want to discuss more about your child(ren)’s specific needs, please contact Mrs Oldfield and we will make sure to look into how your child(ren) can take part.

Why we are taking part

 Sustrans Big Walk and Wheel is a great way to build physical activity in children’s daily routine which is important for their physical health and mental wellbeing.

Active school runs also help to reduce congestion and air pollution outside the school gate. A 2021 YouGov study showed nearly half of UK children worry about air pollution near their school. And that children thought active travel was the best away to bring down these pollution levels.

Plus, there are some great prizes to be won every day if we get enough children taking part!

Useful resources

 To help you prepare, Sustrans has developed a handy free guide to walking, cycling or scooting to school. It is packed with advice to help you have hassle-free journey to school.
