The genitive - Y genidol

'To the head teacher's office'

One way to obtain the Welsh equivalent of this type of English phrase is to:

to the head teacher's office > to the office of the head teacher

2) get rid of the first 'the' and the 'of' in the phrase:
to the office of the head teacher
to office the head teacher > i swyddfa'r pennaeth

Remember that the preposition i causes a soft mutation. Also y and 'r will cause a soft mutation if it is followed by a feminine singular noun, e.g.
to the middle of the bridge > i ganol y bont
