Part of 1. 1. Cwestiynau i Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Addysg – Senedd Cymru am 2:04 pm ar 22 Mawrth 2017.
Byddaf i’n ceisio siarad tipyn bach o Gymraeg hefyd. Fis diwethaf, ymwelais i â chylch yn fy etholaeth. Mwynheais i wrando ar y plant yn canu a dechrau dysgu Cymraeg. Rydw i’n dal i ddysgu Cymraeg hefyd in case you hadn’t guessed. [Laughter.] Minister, what’s struck me when I visit the ‘cylch’, now it’s been incorporated as part of Ysgol Gwenffrwd in Holywell, is that over 90 per cent of the children come from non-Welsh-speaking homes, and many of the nursery assistants are actually the former parents of children who have actually come through as adult learners to work in the ‘cylch’ as well. So, Minister, I’d like to ask specifically what is being done, not just to support these parents to learn Welsh alongside their children, and to encourage their children to stay in Welsh-medium education, but to potentially offer a career path for the parents themselves.
