I would like to be a member of the Welsh Youth Parliament because I am very interested in politics and strongly feel that it’s important for young people to be a part of discussions that are going to affect them in the future. The youth are the future after all! I always give one hundred per cent in everything.
I represented the primary school on the school committee discussing issues, e.g. improving child welfare and health by improving the playground provision on the school yard.
I would like the opportunity to begin discussions and share information with other children in the secondary school to try and encourage them to also become interested in politics and to share their opinions and ideas. I am willing to work very hard to make sure the young people around me are heard.
Hoffwn fod yn aelod o Senedd Ieuenctid Cymru oherwydd fod gennyf ddiddordeb mawr mewn gwleidyddiaeth ac yn teimlo'n gryf ei fod yn bwysig i bobol ifanc fod yn rhan o drafodaethau sy'n mynd i'w heffeithio yn y dyfodol. Yr ieuenctid yw'r dyfodol wedi'r cyfan! Rwyf yn rhoi cant y cant i mewn i bob dim bob tro.
Roeddwn yn cynrychioli'r ysgol gynradd ar bwyllgor yr ysgol yn trafod materion, e.e gwella lles ac iechyd y plant drwy wella darpariaeth y llefydd chwarae ar fuarth yr ysgol.
Hoffwn gael y cyfle i ddechrau trafodaethau a rhannu gwybodaeth yn yr ysgol uwchradd gyda plant eraill i drio eu hannog hwythau i gael diddordeb mewn gwleidyddiaeth ac i rannu barn a syniadau. Rwy'n barod i weithio'n galed iawn i wneud yn siwr bod y pobol ifanc o'm cwmpas yn cael llais.
