Nod y gystadleuaeth yw hyrwyddo sgiliau cyfrifiadureg a rhaglennu ymysg pobl ifanc 7\-16 oed ar draws Cymru.

Mae disgyblion eleni wedi eu herio i ddefnyddio eu sgiliau codio i greu gêm gyfrifiadurol yn seiliedig ar y thema 'Darganfod ac Antur' i gyd\-fynd â 'Flwyddyn Darganfod Cymru' Croeso Cymru.

Mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi buddsoddi £1\.3miliwn dros y tymor Cynulliad hwn i helpu i wella sgiliau codio drwy ‘Cracio’r Cod', cynllun sy’n anelu at ehangu clybiau cod ym mhob rhan o Gymru. Maent yn nodi sut y bydd y Llywodraeth yn gweithio ar y cyd gyda chonsortia addysg, busnesau, partneriaid y trydydd sector a phrifysgolion i sicrhau bod mwy o ddysgwyr yn datblygu'r sgiliau hyn cyn y cwricwlwm newydd.

Yn ogystal â hyn, mae Adran Cyfrifiadureg Prifysgol Abertawe wedi derbyn dros £1\.2 miliwn i ddarparu 'Technocamps' gweithdai codio i ddisgyblion ac athrawon mewn ysgolion ledled Cymru. Mae £1\.2 miliwn hefyd ar gael i gefnogi prifysgolion Cymru i sefydlu’r Sefydliad Codio, sy'n gynnwys arian i gefnogi gweithgarwch dinesig cenhadaeth mentrau codio mewn ysgolion.

Mae sgiliau technoleg a chodio hefyd yn chwarae rôl bwysig yn strategaeth Llywodraeth Cymru Cymraeg 2050: Miliwn o Siaradwyr.

Mae’r Cynllun Gweithredu Technoleg Cymraeg, a gyhoeddwyd fis Hydref diwethaf, yn nodi uchelgais i gynyddu technoleg Gymraeg, gan gynnwys hyrwyddo'r adnoddau sydd eu hangen i godio ac i ddysgu sut i godio yn y Gymraeg.

Dywedodd Kirsty Williams: 


> "Mae ein cwricwlwm newydd yn ceisio arfogi plant a phobl ifanc gyda’r wybodaeth a'r sgiliau y mae ei angen ar gyfer swyddi yn y dyfodol, ac mae codio yn chwarae rhan fawr yn hynny.  
> 
> "Mae codio wedi’i gynnwys yng nghwricwlwm newydd Cymru fel rhan o’r Maes Dysgu a Phrofiad Gwyddoniaeth a Thechnoleg, a fydd ar gael ar gyfer adborth y mis nesaf.
> 
> "Ond nid ydym yn aros ar gyfer y cwricwlwm newydd. Mae ein buddsoddiad parhaus yn sgiliau digidol a chyfrifiadurol ein pobl ifanc yn sicrhau bod y rheini sydd yn yr ysgol a’r cyfle i ddatblygu sgiliau hanfodol yr 21ain ganrif.


> "Hoffwn longyfarch pawb sydd wedi cymryd rhan mewn tyfu Codio Cymru \- mae'n galonogol gweld bod yr enwebiadau wedi dyblu ers llynedd. Hoffwn hefyd ddiolch i'n partneriaid Code Club, Technocamps, y Raspberry Pi Foundation ac eraill am y gwaith maen nhw’n ei wneud i hyrwyddo codio a sicrhau bod eu hadnoddau ar gael yn ddwyieithog."

Dywedodd y Gweinidog ar gyfer y Gymraeg, Eluned Morgan:


> "Mis Hydref diwethaf cyhoeddais Gynllun Gweithredu Technoleg Cymraeg. Mae hyn yn nodi'r angen i fanteisio ar y cwricwlwm newydd a'r adnoddau sydd ar gael ar Hwb i ddatblygu sgiliau plant a phobl ifanc mewn llythrennedd digidol, a chreu cynnwys codio a digidol drwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg. Mae'n wych i weld digwyddiad fel hwn, sy'n dathlu rhagoriaeth codio Cymraeg."

Dywedodd Aled Jones\-Griffith, Pennaeth Coleg Meirion\-Dwyfor a Choleg Menai:


> "Mae codio ym mhwnc sy’n tyfu ac yn sgìl bwysig ym myd technolegol heddiw. Am nifer o flynyddoedd mae ein campws Pwllheli wedi gweithio'n agos gydag ysgolion yng Ngwynedd i gefnogi addysgu codio ac i bwysleisio pwysigrwydd sgiliau o'r fath ar gyfer plant a phobl ifanc heddiw.
> 
> "Nod y gystadleuaeth yw arddangos beth mae pobl ifanc Cymru yn gallu cynnig yn y sector hwn ac i sicrhau bod ei fod yn gadael ysgol a choleg gyda'r sgiliau dymunol a thalentau a fydd yn eu hasedau gwerthfawr mewn unrhyw weithle yn y dyfodol."

Noddir y gystadleuaeth Codio Cymru gan Prifysgol Bangor, Cyngor Gwynedd, Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol, Menter Môn, BT, Carl Kammerling International, Harlech Foodservice Ltd, a GwE.

The aim of the competition is to promote computing and programming skills among young people aged 7\-16 across Wales. 

This year pupils were challenged to use their coding skills to create a computer game based on the theme ‘Discovery and Adventure’ to coincide with Visit Wales’ ‘Year of Discovery’.

The Welsh Government has invested £1\.3million over this Assembly term to help improve coding skills via ‘Cracking the Code’, a plan aimed to expand code clubs in every part of Wales. This sets out how the Government will work in collaboration with education consortia, businesses, third sector partners, and universities to ensure more learners develop these skills in advance of the new curriculum. 

In addition to this, the Department of Computer Science in Swansea University has received over £1\.2 million to deliver ‘Technocamps’ computer coding workshops for pupils and teachers in schools across Wales. Another £1\.2 million has also been made available to support Welsh universities in the establishment of the Institute of Coding, which includes funding to support the civic mission activity of coding initiatives in schools.

Coding skills and technology also have an important role to play in the Welsh Government's strategy Cymraeg 2050: A Million Welsh speakers.

The Welsh Language Technology Action Plan, published last October, sets out ambitions to progress Welsh language technology, including promoting the resources needed to code and to learn to code in Welsh.  

Kirsty Williams said: 


> “Our new curriculum aims to equip children and young people with the knowledge and skills they need for future jobs, and coding has a big part to play in that.
> 
> “Coding is included in the new Curriculum for Wales as part of the Science and Technology Area of Learning and Experience, which will be available for feedback next month. 
> 
> “But we are not waiting for the new curriculum. Our ongoing investment in our young people’s digital and computing skills is about ensuring those in school now have the opportunity to develop essential 21st century skills.
> 
> “I’d like to congratulate everyone involved in growing Codio Cymru \- it’s really encouraging to see entries have doubled since last year. I’d also like to thank our partners Code Club, Technocamps, the Raspberry Pi Foundation and others for the work they do in promoting coding and ensuring their resources are available bilingually.”

The Minister for the Welsh Language, Eluned Morgan, said:


> “Last October I published the Welsh\-language Technology Action Plan. This identifies the need to take advantage of the new curriculum and the resources available on Hwb to develop children and young people’s skills in digital literacy, coding and digital content creation through Welsh. It’s great to see an event such as this, which celebrates excellence in coding in Welsh.”

Aled Jones\-Griffith, Principal of Coleg Meirion\-Dwyfor and Coleg Menai, said:


> "Coding is an ever growing subject and an important skill to have in today's technological world. For a number of years our Pwllheli campus has worked closely with schools in Gwynedd to support the teaching of coding and to emphasise the importance of such skills for children and young people today. 
> 
> “The aim of the competition is to showcase what Wales’ youth has to offer in this sector and to ensure our young people are leaving school and college with desirable skills and talents that will make them valuable assets in any workplace in the future.”

 The Codio Cymru competition is sponsored by Bangor University, Gwynedd Council, Coleg Cymraeg Cenedlaethol, Menter Môn, BT, Carl Kammerling International, Harlech Foodservice Ltd, and GwE.
