  • Mae ein prentisiaid Yusuf Billie a Hudhayfah Arish yn gweithio gydag ysgolion cyfrwng Saesneg i gynnig cyfleoedd i ddatblygu sgiliau Cymraeg disgyblion drwy chwaraeon. Mae ymrwymiad gwych ein hadran prentisiaethau i gynyddu’r defnydd o’r Gymraeg o fewn yr ysgolion yn cefnogi uchelgeisiau ein Llywodraeth, i sicrhau nad oes unrhyw blentyn yn colli cyfle i ddod yn siaradwr Cymraeg hyderus. Croesawodd Yusuf, Hudhayfah a disgyblion Ysgol Gynradd Mount Stuart Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Gyllid a’r Gymraeg Mark Drakeford i weld yr effeithiau cadarnhaol y mae'r prosiect arloesol hwn hefyd yn ei gael ar weithlu dwyieithog y dyfodol. ---- Our apprentices Yusuf Billie and Hudhayfah Arish work with English-medium schools, offering opportunities to develop pupils’ Welsh language skills through sport. Our apprenticeship department’s commitment to increase the use of Welsh within the schools supports the ambitions of our government’s Welsh Language and Education Bill, to ensure that no child misses out on the opportunity to become a confident Welsh speaker. Yusuf, Hudhayfah and the pupils of @Mount Stuart primary welcomed Cabinet Secretary for Finance and Welsh Language, Mark Drakeford to witness the positive effects that this innovative project also has in creating a bilingual workforce for the future. 🔗bit.ly/4iMbtz6 Llywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government

Mae’r cynnydd mewn costau byw yn rhoi straen mawr ar deuluoedd, ac rydym eisiau sicrhau nad yw sefyllfa ariannol teulu yn golygu bod rhaid i blentyn golli allan ar brofiadau drwy’r Urdd.” Bydd tocynnau mynediad i Eisteddfod yr Urdd 2025 ar gael o ddydd Mercher, 19 Mawrth ymlaen. ---- Thanks to financial support of £200,000 from the Welsh Government this year, low-income families will be able to claim free entry to Eisteddfod yr Urdd 2025, which will be held in Margam Park, Neath Port Talbot.

  • 💪🏼Diwrnod Rhyngwladol y Merched | International Women’s Day Fel rhan o’n prosiect #FelMerch, a gwaddol blwyddyn Cymru a India daeth merched ifanc yr Urdd ac India at ei gilydd am bythefnos er mwyn cyfnewid iaith a diwylliant. Braint i'n haelodau oedd cael cefnogi gwaith pwysig Her Future Coalition gyda phlant a merched Kolkata, gan gynnwys rhai sydd wedi goroesi masnachu a mathau eraill o drais ar sail rhywedd. Working with the young women and girls of Kolkata, 10 Urdd members have had the opportunity to carry out cultural and educational workshops alongside Her Future Coalition these past two weeks. An amazing, inspiring and unforgettable experience for all involved. Welsh Government International | Llywodraeth Cymru Rhyngwladol
