Ymddiswyddodd Mrs Helen Biggin fel aelod cyfetholedig o’r Pwyllgor Sefydlog ac o ganlyniad fel yr Is-gadeirydd yn Rhagfyr 2018. Mae’r Pwyllgor yn hynod ddiolchgar iddi am ei chyfraniad i’w waith, ac yn croesawu’r ffaith y bydd yn parhau’n aelod o’r Corff Llywodraethol ac yn gwasanaethu ar Banel Cadeiryddion y Corff Llywodraethol. 3. Yn ei gyfarfod ym mis Chwefror, penododd y Pwyllgor y Parchedig Ganon Steven Kirk (Cadeirydd yr Is-bwyllgor Drafftio) yn Is-gadeirydd y Pwyllgor Sefydlog ar gyfer gweddill y tair blynedd hyd at 31 Rhagfyr 2020. 4. Croesawodd y Pwyllgor yr Hybarch Paul Mackness, Archddiacon Tyddewi, sydd wedi cymryd lle’r Hybarch Ddr Will Strange, Archddiacon Aberteifi, fel Archddiacon enwebedig Tyddewi, a hefyd fel cynrychiolydd clerigol Tyddewi ar y Pwyllgor Sefydlog. 5. Yn dilyn cyfarfodydd y Pwyllgor, penododd Corff y Cynrychiolwyr Syr Paul Silk yn Is- gadeirydd, a oedd felly’n golygu y deuai’n aelod awtomatig yn rhinwedd ei swydd o’r Corff Llywodraethol a’r Pwyllgor Sefydlog. Bydd y Pwyllgor yn ei groesawu i’w cyfarfod nesaf. AELODAETH YR IS-BWYLLGORAU 6. Gan fod aelodaeth yr Hybarch Will Strange o’r Corff Llywodraethol wedi dod i ben ar 31 Rhagfyr 2018, nid oedd bellach yn aelod o’r Pwyllgor Sefydlog na’r is-bwyllgorau Penodiadau a Busnes. 7.

The Standing Committee met on 29 November 2018 and 14 February 2019. The Committee’s recommendations for decision are set out at the end of the Report. MEMBERSHIP OF THE STANDING COMMITTEE 2. Mrs Helen Biggin resigned as a co-opted member of the Standing Committee and consequently as its Deputy Chair in December 2018. The Committee is very grateful to her for her contribution to its work, and welcomes that she will remain a Governing Body member and serve on the Panel of Governing Body Chairs. 3. At its February meeting, the Committee appointed the Reverend Canon Steven Kirk (Chair of the Drafting Sub-committee) as Deputy Chair of the Standing Committee for the remainder of the triennium to 31 December 2020. 4. The Committee welcomed the Venerable Paul Mackness, Archdeacon of St Davids, who replaced the Venerable Dr Will Strange, Archdeacon of Cardigan, as the nominated Archdeacon for St Davids on the Governing Body, and also as the St Davids clerical representative on the Standing Committee. 5. Subsequent to the meetings of the Committee, the Representative Body appointed Sir Paul Silk as its Deputy Chair, which consequently meant that he automatically became an ex-officio member of the Governing Body and of the Standing Committee. The Committee will welcome him to its next meeting. MEMBERSHIP OF SUB-COMMITTEES 6. Due to the Venerable Will Strange’s membership of the Governing Body ending on 31 December 2018, he consequently ceased to be a member of the Standing Committee and its Appointments and Business Sub-committees. 7. The Committee appointed the Reverend Richard Wood to the Appointments and Business Sub-committees for the remainder of the triennium to 31 December 2020. 8. The full membership of the Standing Committee and its sub-committees is set out in Appendix I to this report. REPORT OF THE APPOINTMENTS SUB-COMMITTEE 9. The Standing Committee received a Report on matters discussed by the Appointments Sub-committee at its meeting held on 24 January 2019. 1 Aelodaeth y Corff Llywodraethol 10. Cymeradwyodd y Pwyllgor o dan y pŵer a ddirprwywyd iddo gan y Corff Llywodraethol, y cyfetholedigion canlynol i’r Corff Llywodraethol, fel yr argymhellwyd gan yr Is-bwyllgor hyd at 31 Rhagfyr 2021, oni nodir fel arall: Clerigion Y Parchedig Andrea (Andy) Jones Clerig Heb Fywoliaeth Yr Hybarch Mones Farah (Archddiacon ar gyfer Cymunedau’r Eglwys Newydd) Lleygion Ei Anrhydedd y Barnwr Andrew Keyser QC Mr Matthew Corbett Jones Mrs Lorna Mills (hyd at 31 Rhagfyr 2020) Lleygion (Dan 30 oed) Mr Jacob Martin Mrs Laura Hughes Miss Amy Lewis (hyd at 31 Rhagfyr 2019) Penodiadau i Baneli Cadeiryddion ac Aseswyr y Corff Llywodraethol 11. Yn ôl y weithdrefn ar gyfer penodi i Baneli Cadeiryddion ac Aseswyr, adolygir aelodau ar ôl chwe blynedd. Eleni, roedd dau aelod yn gymwys i’w hadolygu sef Mrs Helen Biggin a’r Gwir Barchedig Richard Pain. Mae’r Pwyllgor yn argymell eu hailbenodi am gyfnod pellach o chwe blynedd. Hefyd mae’r pwyllgor yn argymell penodi Ei Anrhydedd y Barnwr Andrew Keyser QC i’r Panel Cadeiryddion am gyfnod o chwe blynedd. Argymhelliad 1 12. Eleni, nid oedd unrhyw aelod o’r Panel Aseswyr yn gymwys i’w adolygu yn ôl y rheol chwe blynedd. Polisi’r Pwyllgor yw gadael penodiadau pellach i’r Panel Aseswyr yn wag am y tro, gan ddefnyddio Pennaeth y Gwasanaethau Cyfreithiol ar gyfer dyletswyddau’r Aseswyr yng nghyfarfodydd y Corff Llywodraethol yn ôl yr angen. PENODI CYNRYCHIOLYDD YCHWANEGOL I’R CYNGOR YMGYNGHOROL ANGLICANAIDD (ACC) 13. Yn ei gyfarfod diwethaf penododd y Corff Llywodraethol Dr Heather Payne yn Gynrychiolydd unigol (lleyg) yr Eglwys yng Nghymru ar y Cyngor Ymgynghorol Anglicanaidd. Bellach, hysbyswyd y Dalaith fod Pwyllgor Sefydlog yr ACC wedi penderfynu newid trefn aelodaeth yr ACC ar gyfer aelod-Eglwysi sydd â hawl i gael un cynrychiolydd ar hyn o bryd a chynyddu’r hawl i ddau gynrychiolydd.

The Committee recommends that they are re-appointed for a period of a further six years. The Committee also recommends the appointment of His Honour Judge Andrew Keyser QC to the Panel of Chairs for a period of six years. Recommendation 1 12. This year no members of the Panel of Assessors came up for review under the six year rule.

The Governing Body, at its last meeting, appointed Dr Heather Payne as the one (lay) Representative of the Church in Wales to the Anglican Consultative Council.

  • Chapter V Educational Provision in Wales Part
    CHAPTER V EDUCATIONAL PROVISION IN WALES PART (i) : SCHOOLS In medieval Wales it was the Church which assumed the greatest responsibility for schooling, bardic schools and possibly the households of the Welsh lords being also centres of learning. The English universities, and to a lesser extent, the continental universities and the inns of court, provided further or higher 1 education for the ablest talents of Wales. In England, by the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries, lay involvement in educati4n increased, as the needs of the Crown, the aristocracy and the towns expanded, and this was also faintly apparent in as scattered and 2 rural a society as Wales. The revival of classical learning emphasised anew the educational qualities required of administrators and all useful members of the state and which were also to be expected of gentlemen. At a time of social change, in Wales as in England, education became a 3 means of asserting and of reinforcing social distinctions. Neither the schools nor the universities were particularly suited 4 to the task of preparing young gentlemen. The newer grammar schools tried tEadapt, and there were a few signs that the universities and the inns of court, though still largely institutions of professional instruction, made some concessions towards providing a more general and 5 popular education. The essential conservatism of these places meant 6 that they were not in the van of intellectual progress. Rather, they were places for disseminating received and accepted truths intermixed with north European humanism and religious ideology, giving force to 333. 7 the ideal of wise and moral service and leadership.

  • Churches and Chapels of Tonyrefail
    WREFW 4 dfftv 191 iri tin xflnr ?to inn •m 11 fter the founding of the Tonyrefail and District U3A in 2006, it was decided to form a local history group. The group's first project was to research and compile a Abooklet recording the history of the various places of worship in Tonyrefail, one of which was wantonly destroyed by vandals in October 2007: a sad reflection on the state of today's society. Over a period of about eighteen months the group collected photographs and found out the facts relating to the history of the buildings pictured. Tonyrefail has a rich heritage of religious architecture and the group has tried in words and pictures to do justice to this heritage. Every member of the group has enjoyed this excursion into a very fascinating aspect of Tonyrefail past. Sincere thanks are due to: Beryl Davies Marilyn Brookes Pat Jones Vernon Harding Graham Owen Brian Bevington Hywel Gillard and members of the U3A who helped in providing photographs. We are also grateful to Lynne, our local librarian, for providing a meeting place for our monthly roam into Tonyrefail past. Hywel Gillard, Chair, Tonyrefail and District U3A.
