Knocknacarra’s bilingual community national school
June 7, 2013
With only a few days to do so, the City of Galway VEC continues to seek expressions of interest for Galway’s first bilingual community national school in Knocknacarra.
The proposed bilingual model delivers the Department of Education and Skills’ primary education curriculum through two languages, Irish and English, to enable progression to post primary education through the medium of either Irish or English, and welcomes children from all linguistic and cultural backgrounds.
The bilingual community national school will aim to ensure that students are sufficiently competent in Irish to progress to Coláiste na Coiribe, City of Galway VEC’s Coláiste lán-Ghaeilge in Knocknacarra, which recently topped The Sunday Times’ table for university progression in Connacht, should they wish to do so.
Community national schools deliver the Goodness Me! Goodness You! programme, a multibelief programme which caters for children of all beliefs and none. It forms part of the daily teaching and learning in the school.
Full information on the programme can be found at www.cgvec.ie/cns
There has been a high level of interest from parents to date and the VEC is asking all interested parents to register an expression of interest at www.cgvec.ie/cns on or before June 10. You can also contact the City of Galway VEC at 091 549 400.
If successful, the City of Galway VEC’s bilingual community national school will open in Knocknacarra.

Dianchúrsaí an tsamhraidh
May 30, 2013
Cuirfear tús an mhí seo chugainn leis an tsraith dianchúrsaí Gaeilge atá á eagrú ag Conradh na Gaeilge i nGaillimh.
Beidh na cúrsaí á reáchtáil in Áras na nGael, 45 Sráid Doiminic ó 11 – 27 Meitheamh le dhá rang sa tseachtain ó 7.00in – 9.30in gach oíche. Tá na ranganna dírithe ar 3
leibhéal – tosaitheoirí, bunleibhéal, agus meánleibhéal le costas ¤125 ar an gcúrsa.
Le linn an chúrsa beidh béim mhór ar chomhrá agus ar labhairt na Gaeilge. Beidh na rannpháirtithe in ann feabhas a chur ar a gcuid Gaeilge labhartha trí chleachtadh agus trí theagasc den scoth.
Maidir leis na rannpháirtithe a bhfuil Gaeilge níos líofa acu, múinfear roinnt gramadaí dóibh freisin agus beidh siad in ann tuiscint níos fearr a fháil ar scríobh na Gaeilge. Ní bheidh fadhb ar bith díriú ar ábhar nó ar riachtanais speisialta sna ranganna beaga seo freisin más gá.
Cosúil le ranganna an Chonartha trí chéile beidh an curaclam ceangailte le curaclaim Teastas Eorpach na Gaeilge.
Is féidir clárú ar www.arasnangael.ie nó teagmháil a dhéanamh le Conradh na Gaeilge, 45 Sráid Doiminic, Gaillimh, ag 091 567824 nó conradh@bradan.iol.ie
