Rwy'n poeni am anfon fy mhlentyn i'r ysgol. A oes cyngor penodol mewn perthynas ag ysgolion?

I am concerned about sending my child to school. Is there specific advice in relation to schools?

Rydym yn sylweddoli bod pryder ynghylch y Coronafeirws Newydd (COVID-19).

Gallwn sicrhau rhieni a disgyblion ein bod yn parhau i dderbyn cyngor gan Iechyd Cyhoeddus Cymru a'n bod yn cymryd pob cam priodol i atal y feirws rhag lledaenu. Yr hyn sy'n cael ei ddweud wrthym ar hyn o bryd yw bod y risg i'r cyhoedd yn dal yn isel.

Cyngor gan Iechyd Cyhoeddus Cymru am Coronafeirws (COVID-19) 

Rydym yn gwerthfawrogi cydweithrediad disgyblion a rhieni i helpu i atal heintiau rhag lledaenu.

Hylendid da yw'r ffordd orau o'u hatal ac mae rhai camau syml y gallwch eu cymryd i'ch diogelu chi a'ch teulu. Mae’r rhain yn cynnwys:

• Golchi dwylo'n aml gyda sebon a dŵr am o leiaf 20 eiliad, neu ddefnyddio diheintydd dwylo sy'n cynnwys o leiaf 60% alcohol os nad oes sebon a dŵr ar gael.
• Ceisio osgoi cyffwrdd â'r llygaid, y trwyn a'r geg os nad ydych wedi golchi eich dwylo.
• Defnyddio hances bapur i orchuddio eich ceg a'ch trwyn wrth beswch neu disian, ac yna ei thaflu i'r bin cyn golchi eich dwylo'n syth.
