Our King Penguin's Wild Escape! Created by Cyfarthfa Park Primary School
As part of a project with the Wild Escape, we have worked with Cyfarthfa Park Primary School and Light on the Water Video Productions to create a stop motion film of our King Penguin and his Wild Escape back to his home habitat.
The Wild Escape is the largest ever collaboration between the UK’s museums. Supported by Arts Council England, the project aims to inspire hundreds of thousands of children to visit museums and respond creatively to the threat to the UK’s natural environment by looking for animals featured in museum collections and creating their own wildlife artworks. 
The second film in collaboration with Merthyr Cub Scouts will be released in May.
The Wild Escape is made possible by lead support from Arts Council England’s National Lottery Project Grants, with additional support from The Federation of Museums and Galleries in Wales, Art Fund and a group of generous individuals and trusts.
Fel rhan o brosiect gyda’r Wild Escape, rydym wedi gweithio gydag Ysgol Gynradd Parc Cyfarthfa i greu ffilm stop-motion o’n Brenin Pengwin a’i ddihangfa wyllt yn ôl i’w gynefin cartref.
Y Ddihangfa Wyllt yw’r cydweithrediad mwyaf erioed rhwng amgueddfeydd y DU. Nod y prosiect, a gefnogir gan Gyngor Celfyddydau Lloegr, yw ysbrydoli cannoedd o filoedd o blant i ymweld ag amgueddfeydd ac ymateb yn greadigol i'r bygythiad i amgylchedd naturiol y DU drwy chwilio am anifeiliaid sy'n ymddangos yng nghasgliadau'r amgueddfeydd a chreu eu gweithiau celf bywyd gwyllt eu hunain.
Bydd yr ail ffilm mewn cydweithrediad â Sgowtiaid Merthyr yn cael ei rhyddhau ym mis Mai.
Mae Wild Escape yn bosibl oherwydd cymorth arweiniol gan Grantiau Prosiect y Loteri Genedlaethol Cyngor Celfyddydau Lloegr, gyda chymorth ychwanegol gan Ffederasiwn Amgueddfeydd ac Orielau Cymru, y Gronfa Gelf a grŵp o unigolion ac Ymddiriedolaethau hael.
