Published

on

screen-shot-2016-11-01-at-13-44-38‘TRI CHYNNIG i Gymro’ medden nhw, ac ar nos Sul, Hydref 16 fe brofodd hynny yn wir i Steffan Hughes o Sir Ddinbych wrth iddo gipio Ysgoloriaeth Urdd Gobaith Cymru Bryn Terfel 2016 mewn noson wefreiddiol yn Y Stiwt,

Rhosllannerchrugog. Noddir y wobr eleni gan Brifysgol y Drindod Dewi Sant.

Cyflwynwyd yr Ysgoloriaeth gwerth £4,000 i Steffan o flaen cynulleidfa’r Stiwt, ac yn fyw ar raglen arbennig ar S4C.

Y gystadleuaeth oedd penllanw gweithgareddau Eisteddfod yr Urdd eleni.

Disgrifiodd y pump beriniad Ann Atkinson, Owain Llwyd, Gwennan Gibbard, Meinir Siencyn ac Ann Fychan berfformiad Steffan fel un cyfareddol. Yn gyn-ddisgybl o Ysgol Twm o’r Nant, Dinbych ac Ysgol Glan Clwyd mae bellach yn astudio cwrs BMus ym Mhrifysgol Caerdydd.

Roedd gofyn i Steffan a’i gyd-gystadleuwyr greu rhaglen berfformio 12 munud o hyd ar gyfer y noson. Dewisodd Steffan gynnwys ‘Cyrraedd Pen y Siwrnai’ (‘I can go the Distance’) allan o’r ffilm ‘Hercules’ gan Alan Menken (cyfieithiad Steffan Rhys Hughes), ‘Nid fi yw mab fy Nhad’ (‘I’m not my father’s son’) allan o’r sioe ‘Kinky Boots’ gan Cynthia Lauper (cyfieithiad Steffan Rhys Hughes), ‘Mae gen i Freuddwyd’ gan Gwyn Thomas ar gainc ‘Tannau Tawe 02’ gan Elfair Jones (Alaw gan Dr Meredydd Evans a threfniant cerddorol gan Steffan Rhys Hughes, a ‘Ti go iawn’ (‘Brand New You’) allan o’r sioe ‘Musical 13’ gan Jason Robert Brown (cyfieithiad Elin Williams) yn ei berfformiad wedi derbyn cyngor gwych gan y gantores enwog, Siân James, mewn dosbarthiadau meistr a gynigiwyd i bob un o’r cystadleuwyr fel rhan o’r gweithgareddau paratoi ar gyfer yr Ysgoloriaeth.

Dywedodd Steffan: “Roedd yn wych cael cystadlu heno, gan gael y cyfle i ddewis darnau fy hun a cheisio rhywbeth ychydig yn wahanol gyda’r darn Cerdd Dant. Doeddwn i ddim yn disgwyl ennill o gwbl gan mod i wedi bod yna ddwywaith o’r blaen a heb ennill! Mi oedd pawb mor dda heno – hollol ffantastig.

Gydag arian yr Ysgoloriaeth rwyf yn gobeithio datblygu fel perfformiwr gan ddefnyddio’r arian i dalu am hyfforddiant pellach a gwersi.”

Yn ôl Dyfrig Davies, Cadeirydd Bwrdd yr Eisteddfod a’r panel o feirniaid ““Roedd safon y gystadleuaeth heno yn aruchel gyda phob un ohonyn wedi ein cyffwrdd mewn rhyw ffordd. Mi oeddem ni yn chwilio am gyfanwaith a dyna beth a gafwyd gan Steffan – mi oedd yr amrywiaeth a’r dyfeisgarwch yn ei raglen yn wych.

“Mae’r Ysgoloriaeth hon yn rhoi cyfle nid yn unig i ni anrhydeddu unigolyn, ond hefyd i chwech perfformiwr ifanc arddangos eu talentau. Mae’n brawf o gyfoeth y bobl ifanc sydd gennym fel cenedl.”

Dywedodd Aled Siôn Cyfarwyddwr Eisteddfod Genedlaethol yr Urdd, “Unwaith yn rhagor eleni rydym wedi profi bod cyfoeth talent anhygoel ymysg pobl ifanc Cymru. Cawsom Eisteddfod wych yn Sir y Fflint yn ôl ym mis Mai, a dyma ni yn cau pen y mwdwl ar weithgareddau’r ŵyl yma yn Y Stiwt gyda chyngerdd wefreiddiol yr Ysgoloriaeth uchel ei bri hon.

“Pob hwyl i Steffan wrth iddo ddatblygu ei yrfa gyda help yr Ysgoloriaeth, ac edrychwn ymlaen yn eiddgar at glywed sut fydd yr hwb yma yn ei helpu i’r dyfodol.”

Ychwanegodd Gwilym Dyfri Jones, Pro Is-Ganghellor Cysylltiol, Prifysgol Cymru Y Drindod Dewi Sant, “Llongyfarchiadau gwresog i Steffan ar ei lwyddiant a hefyd i’r cystadleuwyr i gyd ar safon eu perfformiadau. Mae Ysgoloriaeth Bryn Terfel wedi sefydlu ei hun fel cystadleuaeth sy’n annog pobl ifanc i fentro yn eu gwahanol ddisgyblaethau i anelu’n uchel. Mae’n gystadleuaeth bwysig sy’n meithrin doniau pobl ifanc yng Nghymru ac mae Prifysgol Cymru Y Drindod Dewi Sant yn falch iawn o’i chefnogi.”

Pembrokeshire adventurer Tori James named National Learn Welsh Ambassador

Published

on

AS THE NATIONAL Centre for Learning Welsh celebrates its highest ever number of learners – over 20,000 in 2024–2025 – it has announced a new ambassadors scheme with the aim of inspiring even more people to learn, use and enjoy the Welsh language.

The Learn Welsh Ambassadors Scheme will be launched today (May 23) at the Urdd Eisteddfod on Anglesey, as part of the Eisteddfod’s ‘Learners’ Day’ celebrations.

Four high-profile ambassadors have been appointed to the new scheme:

  • Aleighcia Scott – singer and DJ, and one of the mentors on S4C’s talent show Y Llais, who will also be honoured with the Green robe at Eisteddfod Genedlaethol y Garreg Las in August.
  • Tori James – adventurer and the first Welsh woman to climb Mount Everest.
  • Katie Owen – DJ and social media influencer.
  • Ian Gwyn Hughes – Head of Public Relations at the Football Association of Wales.

The four ambassadors will represent the Centre, sharing their personal experiences of the Welsh language, and promoting the work of the Learn Welsh sector. They will also support recruitment campaigns, encouraging people from all backgrounds to begin learning Welsh, or to continue their language journey.

The scheme reflects the Centre’s vision to attract and support a wide range of audiences to learn and use Welsh, including workforces, communities, key sectors such as Health and Social Care, the Education Workforce and Sport, young people and families.

The Centre is launching the scheme at the Urdd Eisteddfod. It works in partnership with the Urdd to provide a range of opportunities for the organisation’s staff, and the young people using its services, to strengthen their Welsh language skills or to begin learning the language.

The Centre is also pleased to support the Urdd’s medals for young Welsh learners, the Bobi Jones Medal for learners aged 19 years’ old and above, and the Learners’ Medal for learners aged under 19 years.

Dona Lewis, Chief Executive of the National Centre for Learning Welsh, said: “Creating new Welsh speakers is the Centre’s main aim, supporting them to use and enjoy the language with confidence in their everyday lives.

“I’m pleased to say the Learn Welsh sector is going from strength to strength, with more people than ever completing our courses.

“We’re delighted to welcome a group of passionate ambassadors who will share their experiences of the Welsh language and help promote and celebrate our work. We’re proud to launch this new scheme at the Urdd Eisteddfod, one of our partners.

“The Centre works creatively and in partnership across different sectors, providing one, single learning pathway to becoming a Welsh speaker. We are all here to welcome and support our learners and new speakers at every stage of their language journey.”

Aleighcia Scott said: “I’m delighted to take part in this scheme. Learning Welsh has been an important personal journey for me, and it has opened new doors – both creatively and socially.”

Tori James said: “Learning a new skill can be a bit like climbing a mountain – it can be a challenge, but every small step is a success!

“I’m very pleased to have the opportunity to support people to take their first step into learning Welsh, and to keep going – it’s a journey well worth taking.”

Katie Owen said: “I’d always wanted to learn Welsh, and it has been the best thing I’ve done. The Welsh-speaking community is so welcoming, and the National Centre for Learning Welsh offers so many opportunities to learn and use the language.”

Ian Gwyn Hughes said: “Welsh belongs to all of us, and it has been fantastic to see the positive response to our use of the language at the Football Association of Wales. I look forward to supporting the Centre’s work to extend the use of Welsh in all kinds of contexts.”

Welsh language report says students face mixed experiences across colleges and universities

Published

on

A NEW report has found that Welsh-speaking students face inconsistent access to Welsh language services across Wales’ colleges and universities.

The research, published by the Welsh Language Commissioner on Monday (May 25), gathered responses from more than 1,500 further and higher education students.

It examined four key areas: whether students can submit written work in Welsh, choose accommodation with Welsh-speaking students, access a Welsh-speaking personal tutor, and receive wellbeing support through the medium of Welsh.

The report also looked at the wider language culture on campuses, including how institutions promote Welsh language services and support students to use Welsh naturally in academic and social settings.

Osian Llywelyn, Deputy Welsh Language Commissioner, said colleges and universities had a vital role in helping students use Welsh as part of everyday life.

He said: “Given the importance of sustaining and developing the continued use of the Welsh language, it is essential to recognise the key role that further education colleges and higher education institutions play in ensuring that students have the opportunity to use Welsh naturally as part of their academic and social lives.

“While it is encouraging to see strong examples of good practice, that experience is not consistent across the sector. As a result, we have identified clear improvement actions, and we will be asking the relevant institutions to address them.”

Five improvement actions have been identified. These include standardising Welsh-medium assessment arrangements, proactively offering Welsh language services rather than simply making them available on request, addressing gaps in workforce Welsh-language skills, strengthening students’ sense of belonging through Welsh, and improving self-assessment and monitoring.

James Owen, Chief Executive of Medr, the body responsible for funding and regulating tertiary education in Wales, said the findings showed the need for more support across the sector.

He said Medr’s new Welsh Language Condition would place a clearer focus on providers promoting and supporting the use of Cymraeg, and on creating formal and informal opportunities for staff and learners to develop their Welsh-language skills.

Ioan Matthews, Chief Executive of Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol, said students’ experiences of Welsh at college or university could influence their willingness and ability to use the language later in the workplace.

He said the report showed the need for the Welsh-language experience to extend “well beyond the classroom”.

The report will be officially launched at the Welsh Language Commissioner’s stand at the Urdd Eisteddfod in Anglesey at 11:00am on Monday (May 25).

Two new Milford Haven schools could be built and open by 2032

Published

on

NEW SCHOOLS in Milford Haven won’t be built before 2030 at the earliest, and 2032 for a planned Welsh Medium school, councillors heard.

The timeline was stated during discussions at Pembrokeshire County Council’s May meeting on educational matters in the county, including a revised governance arrangements for the sustainable communities for learning programme and planning for the future of Welsh medium education in the Milford Haven area.

At the meeting, Cllr Viv Stoddart reflected on a recent school panel visit to Milford Haven, saying a later private talk with pupils showed they were “acutely aware and acutely embarrassed by the situation in their school,” feeling like they were “second-class citizens”.

“Where does the school for Milford Haven sit? Is there a date for it? The state of the school has actually been a concern since 2012.”

Cllr Guy Woodham, who had earlier announced he was stepping down from his Cabinet education role, said he felt a personal disappointment to be stepping down before there was “a spade in the ground”.

He told members his understanding was the outline business case was due to be submitted to Welsh Government in June.

Mike Cavanagh, Head of Culture, Leisure, and School Modernisation told members the to-date £143m scheme needed a robust business case to Welsh Government, which had to be followed to gain approximately two-thirds funding; the final business case expected in 2027, with hopes the English Medium element of the new school would be built in 2030, and a new Welsh Medium in 2032.

In relation to Welsh medium education in the Milford area, a report for members said a 2025 Cabinet meeting had backed the Director of Education be given approval to commence the school organisation process to establish a new 3-11 Welsh medium school in Milford Haven, with a decision now sought to commence statutory consultation.

It said there were currently 19 Welsh-medium schools in Pembrokeshire, but no Welsh-medium school physically located within Milford Haven itself, one of Pembrokeshire’s largest population centres.

It said: “The establishment of a new Welsh-medium primary school in Milford Haven would address the demand evident within the wider Milford Haven area and provide an opportunity to review and rebalance Welsh-medium catchment boundaries.”

Members backed the recommendation to commence statutory consultation on establishing a new Welsh medium primary school to serve the Milford Haven area.
