Roedd y Prif Weinidog yn ymweld â safle’r Ysgol Glancegin newydd sy’n cael ei hadeiladu wrth ochr yr ysgol bresennol. Mae’r ysgol newydd yn cael ei hariannu ar y cyd rhwng Cyngor Gwynedd a Llywodraeth Cymru drwy’r Rhaglen Ysgolion yr 21ain Ganrif.

 Dechreuodd y gwaith adeiladu yn yr haf, ac mae disgwyl i’r ysgol newydd agor ym mis Medi 2017\. Bydd y datblygiad yn sicrhau’r amgylchedd dysgu gorau posib, gan gynnwys gofod dysgu yn yr awyr agored ac ardaloedd chwarae newydd a fydd yn helpu datblygiad plant ar draws pob rhan o’r cwricwlwm.  
Bydd yr adeilad newydd hefyd yn darparu gwell amgylchedd ar gyfer gofal bugeiliol i ddisgyblion a theuluoedd.

 Yn ystod ei ymweliad, fe gafodd y Prif Weinidog gyfle i gyfarfod rhai o ddisgyblion yr ysgol sydd wedi cyfrannu at y cynlluniau ar gyfer yr ysgol newydd.  
Dywedodd y Prif Weinidog: 

 
> “Mae wedi bod yn bleser cael bod yma heddiw ym Maesgeirchen i weld y datblygiad gwych hwn a fydd yn fanteisiol iawn i ddisgyblion, athrawon a rhieni. Mae’n dda gweld canlyniad ein buddsoddiad mewn ysgolion ar lawr gwlad.
> 
>  “Gyda’r ysgol newydd drws nesa i’r ysgol bresennol, gall y disgyblion gadw llygad ar y datblygiadau, ac roedd yn dda gweld eu bod nhw wedi cyfrannu at y cynlluniau ar gyfer yr ysgol.
> 
>  “Bydd y disgyblion a’r athrawon yn elwa o’r datblygiad newydd hwn, ond ar ben hynny, bydd y gymuned ehangach yn elwa hefyd gan ei fod yn brosiect adeiladu mawr sy’n creu swyddi a chyfleoedd i gyflenwyr lleol.”

 Dywedodd y Cynghorydd Gareth Thomas, Aelod Cabinet Cyngor Gwynedd dros Addysg: 

 
> “Fel Cyngor, rydyn ni’n awyddus iawn i sicrhau bod plant o fewn cymunedau ar draws y wlad, ble bynnag maen nhw’n byw, yn gallu cyrraedd at yr adnoddau addysg gorau posib. 
> 
>  “Felly mae’n wych gweld y gwaith yn symud ymlaen mor dda ar y prosiect i adeiladu’r Ysgol Glancegin newydd. Gyda buddsoddiad o dros £5 miliwn, pan fydd yr ysgol yn agor ei drysau yn 2017, bydd plant yr ardal hon o Fangor yn gallu manteisio ar amgylchedd dysgu modern ac ardal newydd i chwarae a dysgu yn yr awyr agored.”

The First Minister was visiting the site of the new Ysgol Glancegin which is being built next to the existing school.   The new school is jointly funded by Gwynedd Council and the Welsh Government through its 21st Century Schools and Education Programme.


Building work began in the summer with the new school due to open in September 2017\.  The development will ensure the best teaching environment, including an external teaching space as well as providing new play areas which will support children’s development across all parts of the curriculum.  

The new building will also provide an improved environment for pastoral care for pupils and families.


During his visit the First Minister also met some of the school’s pupils who have been involved in the plans for the new school.


The First Minister said:



> “It’s been a pleasure to be here in Maesgeirchen today to see this fantastic development which will be of real benefit for the pupils, teachers and parents.  It’s good to see the results of investment in our schools on the ground.
> 
> 
> “With the new school right next to the existing school the pupils can keep a close eye on developments, and it was pleasing to see that they have been involved in the design for the school.
> 
> 
> “It’s not only the pupils and teachers who’ll benefit from this new development, but the wider community will too as this is a major construction scheme creating employment and providing opportunities for local suppliers.”


Councillor Gareth Thomas, Gwynedd Council Cabinet Member for Education, said:



> “As a Council, we are eager to ensure that children within communities across the county, wherever they live, have access to the best possible educational resources.
> 
> 
> "It is therefore fantastic that work is progressing well on the project to build the new Ysgol Glancegin. With an investment of over £5 million, when the school opens its doors in 2017, children in this area of Bangor will benefit from a modern teaching environment as well as a new outdoor play and educational area.”
