Gaeilge i mo pobal

Through working together the communities of Garbh Coille, Droim Féigh and Mꞽseal, aim to promote and make the Irish Language visible in their community. There are planned events such as Biongó, Damhsa Ceilí and Ceist Boird. 

A booklet is being developed to help promote the use of Gaeilge in their homes and will be available to everyone in the community. It will contain labels for household items and also useful phrases related to items and rooms in the house.  The community see this as a way to learn and encourage ag caint as Gaeilge insteach agus taobh amuigh an teach. The community has linked the three local schools and have run a "design a badge" competition to show "Tá focal agam" which is hoped will encourage people to add in a cúpla focal into their daily talk with others in the community.

The project is also looking at signage in the community. The community has reached out to all shops, schools, community centres and sports facilities to come onboard to replace old signage with new Gaeilge signs designed by the Comhrá Group. 

The entire community is invited to get involved and develop the growth and use of the Irish Language!

Please note that the details of events listed above are provided by the relevant Local Authorities.
