Gaelscoil Riabhach – Brat Buí faighte!
Samhain 9, 2012
Tá áthas an domhain orainn a fhógairt go bhfuil an Brat Buí againn. Ba muid an chéad scoil i gCúige Connacht chun é a fháil agus tá muid an-bhródúil den obair a rinneadh anuraidh. Chuaigh dream ón scoil chun é a fháil Dé Máirt seo caite agus ba mhór an onóir é a fháil ó John Joe Nevin, an buaiteoir boinn Oilimpigh. Is scoil il-chreidmheach í Gaelscoil Riabhach agus is siombal é an Brat Buí den fáilte a chuirtear sa scoil roimh gach éinne agus den obair a dhéantar an t-am ar fad i gCroí na Scoile. An mhí seo céard a bhéas ar siúl againn nó á foghlam againn chun Croí na Scoile a láidriú?

Bronnadh Seice ar Ghaelscoil na Deirge
Samhain 5, 2012
Chuaigh Pilib Ó Ruanaí príomhfheidhmeannach Iontaobhas na Gaelscolaíochta chuig cruinniú cinn bliana Naíscoil na Deirge le seic ar £13,000 a bhronnadh ar Ghaelscoil na Deirge, Caisleán na Deirge. Bunaíodh Gaelscoil na Deirge Meán Fómhair na bliana seo le freastal ar éileamh na gaelscolaíochta sa bhaile seo ar an teorainn idir Tír Eoghain agus Tír Chonaill.
Níl an scoil maoinithe go fóill ag an Roinn Oideachais, ach tá coiste na scoile ag súil le go leor daltaí amach anseo le go mbeadh an scoil maoinithe.
Ghlac cathaoirleach na scoile Maolíosa Mac Aodha go fonnmhar leis an deonachán a bailíodh ag oíche mhór ag deireadh mí Iúil in óstán The Europa i mBéal Feirste a bhí ann mar chuid de Scoil Samhraidh Mhic Reachtain. Bhí Seán Ó Coinn ó Fhoras na Gaeilge ina aoichainteoir ar an oíche agus luaigh sé gur ábhar dóchais dó go bhfuil lóchrann na teanga á iompair ag glún úr anois, nó is na daoine óga sin a chur an ócáid i dtoll a chéile. Ghabh Máirtín Mac Cathmhaoil – duine den tseanghlún – ó Chumann Mhic Reachtain buíochas le gach duine agus gach grúpa a thug airgead don tionscadal fiúntach seo.
Mhol Pilib Ó Ruanaí thar cheann InaG Cumann Mhic Reachtain i dtuaisceart Bhéal Feirste as an ócáid a thapú le hairgead a bhailiú don chúis seo.
‘Seod atá i Scoil Samhraidh Mhic Reachtain agus buaicphointe na feilire atá ann do ghaeil Uladh le 10 mbliana anois; seo an chéad bhliain i gceannas ag Ray Giffen agus scéal cinnte go rachaidh an tionscadal ó neart go neart amach anseo.
‘Bíonn gach tús lag agus tuigeann coiste Ghaelscoil na Deirge go mbeidh obair mhór rompu ag iompar scoile gan mhaoiniú ón stat. Ach tá siad cinnte go bhfuil éileamh don ghaelscolaíocht i gCaisleán na Deirge agus go músclófar suim tuismitheoirí eile nuair a feiceann siad gaelscoil ar leac an dorais acu a sholáthar oideachas den scoth.
‘Tháinig pobal an tuaiscirt le chéile i mBéal Feirste le lámh chúnta a shíneadh amach chuig grúpa beag atá ag iarraidh síol na Gaeilge a chur síos arís sa cheantar stairiúil sin.
‘Tá dul chun cinn suntasach sa tuaisceart i mbliana le bunú Gaelscoil na Deirge agus Gaelscoil Eoghain ar an Chorr Críochach agus aitheantas bainte amach ag Bunscoil na mBeann i gCill Caoil. Tá foirgnimh úra ag Scoil na Fuiseoige, Naíscoil an tSléibhe Dhuibh agus Gaelscoil Éanna i mBéal Feirste. Tá scéim caipitil £12m fógartha ag aire oideachais John O’Dowd do Choláiste Feirste agus scéim chaipitil do Bhunscoil Bheann Mhadágaín. Cúis chéiliúrtha atá ann agus is comhartha atá ann go bhfuil aire oideachais ann a thuigeann tábhacht na gaelscolaíochta sa chóras oideachais.
Guímid gach beannacht ar an tionscadal iontach seo agus go néirí go geal le Gaelscoil na Deirge amach anseo.’
Ghabh Maolíosa Mac Aodha buíochas do InaG agus do Chumann Mhic Reachtain as an deonachán
‘Tosaíonn gach aistear le coischéim amháin agus seo an chéad chéim i dtreo na gaelscolaíochta tugtha ag pobal Ghleann na Deirge. Agus le cuidiú Dé beidh an scoil seo ann i mbliana, an bhliain seo chugainn agus le blianta fada amach anseo ag déanamh freastail ar mhian tuismitheoirí atá ag iarraidh buanna an dátheangachais dá bpáistí.’
Public Lecture – Towards an Integrated Language Curriculum in Primary Education: Issues and implications

Arklow parents have just one week to fill in survey on patron options for primary schools
Samhain 2, 2012
Deadline of 9th November only a week away
The Minister for Education and Skills, Ruairí Quinn T.D., is calling on parents in Arklow to complete the survey on primary school patronage before the 9th November deadline.
In a new initiative, launched by Minister Quinn last month, parents of pre-school and primary school children are being asked what patrons they would like to see running their local primary schools.
Earlier this year, the Advisory Group to the Forum on Patronage and Pluralism in the Primary Sector made recommendations to on the divesting of patronage where there is a stable population and a demand for diversity of school types.
Following on from these recommendations, the Minister commenced a new process to examine the possibility of transferring some schools to other patron bodies in 44 areas around the country.
Last month, Minister Quinn asked parents of pre-school and primary school children in Arklow to complete surveys stating their preferences for the type of school they would like their children to attend. Parents in Castlebar, Tramore, Trim and Whitehall (including Kilmore West and Beaumont) in Dublin are also being surveyed in this pilot phase.
The intention is to find out if parents would prefer a wider choice of school patron than is currently available to them. The responses of parents will be used to decide what changes, if any, should be made to widen the availability of other types of primary school in these locations.
Current patrons in Arklow are the Archbishop of Dublin (Catholic), the Archbishop of Dublin and Glendalough (Church of Ireland) and An Foras Pátrúnachta.
The bodies which have expressed interest in becoming patrons of divested schools in the area are An Foras Pátrúnachta, Educate Together and Co. Wicklow VEC.
Minister Quinn said, “I am urging all eligible Arklow parents to make sure that their voices are heard by taking part in these surveys. This is a historic opportunity for parents to re-shape the primary school landscape for generations to come.”
If the surveys identify demand for alternative patronage in these areas, the Department will explore with the existing patrons the transfer of patronage of schools.
The survey is available at: www.education.ie and all eligible parents or guardians are asked to complete it on-line by Friday 9th November. Parents or guardians are advised to have their PPS number to hand when accessing the on-line survey as this will be requested for validation purposes.
A free helpline is available in the Department for anyone who has any difficulties in completing the survey: 1800 303621. The helpline will be open from 9.30 to 1pm and 2pm to 5pm, Monday to Friday.
If parents cannot access the online survey, a paper based version can be requested by ringing the freephone number1800 303621.
