We had a fantastic time celebrating Seachtain na Gaeilge in our school this year. Throughout the week, students took part in a range of fun activities that helped us appreciate the Irish language and culture.
Bhí go leor imeachtaí ar siúl i rith na seachtaine. Ghlac na daltaí páirt i table quizzes, áit ar chuir siad a gcuid eolais ar an nGaeilge agus ar chultúr na hÉireann ar taispeáint. D’fhoghlaim muid na focail don amhrán “Péigín Litir Mór”, agus bhain gach duine an-taitneamh as é a chanadh le chéile.
We also watched some well-known Irish films as Gaeilge, including Secret of Kells and An Cailín Ciúin. These films gave us a chance to hear Irish being spoken naturally while enjoying some great storytelling.
Bhí Caifé Gaelach againn freisin, áit ar tháinig na daltaí le chéile chun comhrá a dhéanamh trí Ghaeilge i suíomh suaimhneach. Bhí sé iontach deis a bheith againn ár gcuid Gaeilge a chleachtadh le cairde.
Another highlight of the week was listening to traditional Irish music played by Cathal. He introduced us to different traditional instruments and explained how they are used in Irish music. It was a great opportunity to learn more about Ireland’s rich musical traditions.
Chríochnaigh muid an tseachtain le Lá Glas, áit ar chaith gach duine éadaí glasa chun an Ghaeilge agus ár gcultúr a cheiliúradh.
Seachtain iontach a bhí ann agus léirigh sí dúinn go léir gur teanga bheo spraíúil í an Ghaeilge!
