Press Release - Gàidhlig anns a’Ghleann, Drumnadrochit
Parents in the Glen Urquhart area have recently set up a Gaelic development group in the hope of making Gaelic available to children in the Glen Urquhart and Drumnadrochit area.
When asked why the group was set up Clelland McCallum, chair of Gàidhlig anns a’Ghleann, said “With the resurgence in Gaelic and the new school in Inverness and one proposed for Ft William smaller communities run the risk of being left behind. So we have decided to push ahead with the help and support of the local Councillors and The Highland Council and establish a group for young children. “
Clelland also mentioned “with the new Ceuman Beaga group not only will our childrens’ early development and language acquisition benefit but there is potential for them to have a well paid career in the future as there is a whole new industry quick growing up around the Gaelic resurgence”.
Anyone interested can get in touch by contacting Clelland on 01456 476258, visit the GaaG web site at www.gaag.org.uk

Gaelic-speaking Tutors for Out of School Activities Needed - Bun-sgoil Ghàidhlig Inbhir Nis
Tha pàrantan ann am Bun-sgoil Ghàidhlig Inbhir Nis a' feuchainn ri cur-seachadan an dèidh na sgoile a chur air dhòigh dhan chloinn ann an Gàidhlig. Mar sin tha sinn a' sgrìobhadh dha na buidhnean Gàidhlig air fad airson faicinn a bheil luchd-bruidhinn na Gàidhlig ann aig am biodh ùidh ann a bhith ag obair le clann, cuin a bhios iad saor, agus dè na sgilean no ùidhean a th'aca. 'S dòcha gum bi pàigheadh ann airson seo, a-rèir ìre trèanaidh an neach. Tha sinn gu sònraichte a' lorg fileantaich a stiùireadh ball-coise, iomain, spòrs sam bith eile, ealain, drama, ceòl, oideachadh airson a' Mhòd, còcaireachd, is msaa.
Nam biodh ùidh agaibh anns an seo leig fios thugam cho luath sa ghabhas.
The parents of Bun-sgoil Ghàidhlig Inbhir Nis are trying to set up after school activities for their children through the medium of Gaelic, and to this aim we are attempting to assemble a skills database of Gaelic speakers. We are contacting all Gaelic groups to see if there are fluent Gaelic speakers who would be interested in working with children, determine when they would be available and what skills or interests they may have. There may be payment available for trained leaders. We are especially seeking fluent speakers who could lead football, shinty, other sports, art, drama, music, mod instruction, cooking etc.
If you are interested in this or know of someone else who might be, please contact Dawn as soon as possible.
