- Brief description:
- Gwregys achub oddi-ar Long Hyfforddi y Clio oedd wedi ei angori ar y Fenai o 1877-1920. Llong hyfforddi oedd y Clio wedi ei anelu i ddarparu bechgyn o gefndiroedd difreintiedig gyda'r sgiliau angenrheidiol i wynebu bywyd ar y môr. Roedd hefyd yn ysgol ddiwygiadol ar gyfer bechgyn helbulus rhwng yr oedrannau o 12 i 16. Roedd y Clio, ac ysgolion eraill tebyg, yn cael eu gweld fel dull o gartrefu ac addysgu bechgyn oedd angen lloches neu oedd yn ymddangos yn debygol o droi tuag at fywyd o ddrwg weithrediad a thor-cyfraith. Canran isel oedd y bechgyn lleol ar y Clio. Lifebelt from the Clio Training Ship moored in the Menai Strait from 1877-1920. The Clio was a training ship aimed to provide boys of a poorer background with the skills necessary for life at sea. It was also a reformatory school for delinquent boys between the ages of 12 to 16. The Clio, and other industrial training ships, were viewed as a being a means by which to house and educate boys who needed both shelter and guidance if they appeared to be approaching a life of ill-discipline and anti-social behaviour. Only a small proportion of the Clio's residents were local boys.
