Ysgol Gynradd Betws yw'r bumed ysgol o'i bath i gael ei hadeiladu ym Mwrdeistref Sirol Pen\-y\-bont ar Ogwr dros y bum mlynedd ddiwethaf gyda diolch i gynllun cyllido Llywodraeth Cymru. Mae'r Rhaglen i Sicrhau Addysg ac Ysgolion ar gyfer yr 21ain ganrif yn rhoi cymorth i ysgolion er mwyn iddynt allu diweddaru eu hadeiladau, eu hardaloedd tu allan a'u hoffer TG er mwyn gallu diwallu gofynion modern.

Cafodd yr ysgol flaenorol ei dymchwel ar ôl iddi gael ei difrodi gan dân, ond bellach mae dau adeilad modern newydd wedi eu codi yn ei lle, sef: Ysgol Gynradd newydd Betws ac Ysgol Gynradd Gymraeg Calon Y Cymoedd, ysgol cyfrwng Cymraeg sydd wedi cael ei hadleoli o Bontycymer.

Mae'r adeilad newydd yn rhan o fuddsoddiad gwerth £10\.8 miliwn ar gyfer de Cwm Garw, sydd wedi'i gefnogi gan £5\.4 miliwn oddi wrth Lywodraeth Cymru.

Ym mis Tachwedd, cyhoeddodd Lywodraeth Cymru ail rownd o fuddsoddiadau yn y Rhaglen Ysgolion ar gyfer yr 21ain Ganrif lle bydd £2\.3 biliwn pellach yn cael ei fuddsoddi er mwyn moderneiddio'r seilwaith addysg ledled Cymru.

Er bod yr ysgol wedi bod yn croesawu disgyblion ers Ionawr, bydd ymweliad y Prif Weinidog yn dathlu dechrau blwyddyn academaidd lawn gyntaf yr ysgol. Ar ôl i'r tân yn 2012 ddinistrio bloc cynradd yr ysgol, roedd y disgyblion yn cael eu gwersi mewn ystafelloedd dosbarth cludadwy.

Cyn yr agoriad swyddogol dywedodd Carwyn Jones,


> "Mae'n anrhydedd i mi gael agor Ysgol Gynradd Betws. Mae'n gyfle gwych i fi gael gweld drosto i fy hunan sut mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi bod yn gweithio mewn partneriaeth ag awdurdodau lleol ac ysgolion i wella addysg yng nghymunedau Cymru.
> 
> "Mae Cymru'n benderfynol o godi safonau a sicrhau addysg deg a chyfartal i bob plentyn yn ein gwlad.
> 
> “Ein Rhaglen i Sicrhau Addysg ac Ysgolion ar gyfer yr 21ain Ganrif yw'r buddsoddiad mwyaf mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi ei wneud yn ein hysgolion a'n colegau ers y 1960au. Bydd hyn yn sicrhau bod gan Gymru y cyfleusterau addysg a fydd nid yn unig yn ennyn balchder yn genedlaethol, a bydd gwledydd eraill yn genfigennus ohonynt."

Dywedodd Liz Pearce, Pennaeth Ysgol Gynradd Betws:


> "Mae disgyblion Ysgol Gynradd Betws yn falch iawn o'u hysgol newydd ffantastig. Mae buddsoddiad Llywodraeth Cymru ynghyd â Chyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Pen\-y\-bont ar Ogwr i ddatblygu Ysgolion yr 21ain Ganrif wedi rhoi cyfle i'n disgyblion fanteisio ar ddysgu o'r radd flaenaf.
> 
> "O'r acwsteg arbennig a'r lliwiau llachar hyfryd ar y muriau i'r ardaloedd chwarae meddal a'r ardal chwaraeon pob tywydd, gall ein disgyblion ddysgu mewn amgylchedd dysgu heb ei ail."
> 
> "Rydym yn falch iawn i groesawu’r Prif Weinidog yma heddiw, gan ein bod yn gwybod ei fod hefyd yn frwd iawn dros bobl ifanc Cymru. Rydym yn ddiolchgar iawn iddo am ddod yma i agor ein hysgol, gan ein bod yn gwybod ei fod yn brysur iawn."

Gwnaeth y Prif Weinidog ddadorchuddio plac fel rhan o'r seremoni agoriadol, gyda Maer Pen\-y\-bont ar Ogwr, Arweinydd Cyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Pen\-y\-bont ar Ogwr, a'i Aelod o'r Cabinet dros Addysg ac Adfywio.

Betws Primary School is the fifth of its kind to be built in Bridgend County Borough over the past 5 years thanks to a Welsh Government funding scheme. The 21st Century Schools and Education Programme supports schools to upgrade their buildings, outdoor areas and IT equipment to match modern\-day needs.


The previous Betws Primary was demolished after it was badly damaged following a fire but it has now made way for 2 contemporary buildings; the new Betws Primary and a Welsh\-medium primary, Ysgol Gynradd Gymraeg Calon Y Cymoedd, relocating from nearby Pontycymer.


The new building is part of a £10\.8 million investment for the Garw Valley south area, supported by around £5\.4 million from Welsh Government.


In November, Welsh Government announced a second round of investment in the 21st Century Schools Programme which will see a further £2\.3 billion invested in modernising education infrastructure across Wales.


Although the school started welcoming students through its doors in January, the First Minister’s visit will celebrate the beginning of the school’s first full academic year. Pupils had previously been taught in portable classrooms following the 2012 fire which destroyed the junior block.


Ahead of the opening, First Minister Carwyn Jones, said,



> “It’s a real privilege to open this fantastic new school in Betws. Visiting new schools is a great opportunity to see first\-hand how Welsh Government, local authorities and schools work in partnership to deliver better education for our communities.
> 
> 
> “We are committed to raising standards and delivering the best education to every child in our country.
> 
> 
> “Our 21st Century Schools and Education Programme is the largest investment Welsh Government has made towards our schools and colleges since the 1960s. This will ensure Wales has schools that are not just the pride of Wales but the envy of other nations.”


Head teacher of Betws Primary School, Liz Pearce, said,



> “The pupils of Betws Primary are very proud of their fantastic new school. The investment of Welsh Government along with Bridgend County Borough Council in developing outstanding 21st Century Schools has given our pupils opportunities to first class learning.
> 
> 
> “From the attractively designed acoustics and brightly coloured paintwork to the soft play and Astroturf sports area, our pupils can learn and play in a superior learning environment.
> 
> 
> “We are delighted to receive a visit from the First Minister as we know he is also passionate about the young people of Wales and are grateful for him taking time out of his busy schedule to open our school.”


The First Minister unveiled a plaque as part of the opening ceremony, supported by the Mayor of Bridgend, the Leader of Bridgend County Borough Council, and its Cabinet Member for Education and Regeneration.
