Nodir Diwrnod y Cadoediad ddydd Mercher 11 Tachwedd 2026 a gwahoddir staff, myfyrwyr ac aelodau o’r cyhoedd i Wasanaeth Coffa’r Brifysgol ac i gymryd rhan mewn dwy funud o ddistawrwydd.

Gofynnir i’r sawl sy’n dymuno bod yn bresennol gwrdd yn Oriel John Viriamu Jones (VJ) yn y Prif Adeilad erbyn 10.50am er mwyn i’r digwyddiad allu dechrau’n brydlon. Bydd y gwasanaeth yn dod i ben erbyn 11:30am.

Arweinir y Gwasanaeth gan y Llywydd a'r Is-Ganghellor, yr Athro Wendy Larner, a Chaplaniaeth Aml-ffydd y Brifysgol.

Nodwch na fydd modd cael mynediad i Oriel VJ o fynedfa’r Prif Adeilad ar Rodfa’r Bedol rhwng 10.30am a 11.30am, a dim ond y rhai sy’n mynd i’r Gwasanaeth Coffa a fydd yn cael mynediad o faes parcio Plas y Parc yn ystod y cyfnod hwn. Efallai fydd gofyn i aelodau o’r staff a myfyrwyr ddangos eu cardiau adnabod. Ni fydd mynediad i'r oriel ar lawr cyntaf o Oriel VJ yn ystod y gwasanaeth a bydd mynediad i'r Llyfrgell Gwyddoniaeth yn cael ei gyfyngu.

Bydd mynediad i’r Prif Adeilad drwy fynedfeydd Ysgol y Gwyddorau Ffisegol, Cemegol ac Amgylcheddol yn cael ei ganiatáu drwy ddangos cerdyn adnabod staff/myfyriwr yn ystod y cyfnod hwn.

Peidiwch â dod â bagiau mawr i mewn i Oriel VJ. Os oes gennych fag sy’n llai o faint, un o’r amodau mynediad yw eich bod yn caniatáu i'ch bag gael ei archwilio at ddibenion diogelwch.

Gofynnir yn garedig i’r staff a’r myfyrwyr sy’n defnyddio’r Prif Adeilad rhwng 10.50am a 11.20am ar 11 Tachwedd gadw’r sŵn mor isel â phosibl.

Diolch yn fawr i chi am eich cydweithrediad.
