CIORCAL GAEILGE

A practical way clubs can promote the use of the Irish language is by taking on board an initative started by an Bhoth called  Ciorcal Gaeilge.A group of

people meet one night a week for an hour to converse in Irish ,the session is led by someone who is proficient in the language and is open to all abilities .It is a lot

of fun and one can see the improvement week on week.

I am available to assist any club who wish to take up this initative.
