You’re very welcome to the December edition of Gaelchultúr’s newsletter - the last edition of 2011. And ...
A happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year!
Gaelchultúr has designed a Christmas card which you can print out and send to your friends.
Saturday, 26 November, was a historic occasion as two senior government ministers from both sides of the border were present in Cultúrlann McAdam Ó Fiaich in Belfast for the launch of Gaeilge gan Stró! – Beginners Level, a new multimedia Irish language course for adult learners, published recently by Gaelchultúr.
Gaelchultúr’s new course for adult learners, Gaeilge gan Stró! – Beginners Level, will be launched at an event to be held in Dublin city centre this Thursday, 8 December.
Gaelchultúr will be offering a rang of language classes this spring again, from the popular night classes to more specialised courses aimed at those who wish to greatly improve their writing skills or pursue a career as a teacher.
The National College of Art and Design will be offering a new course, Diploma in Teaching through Irish (Art), from January 2012. This programme, which is being run in conjunction with Gaelchultúr, aims to give the participants the skills necessary to teach art effectively through Irish.
Gaelchultúr was last month recognised as an award provider by FETAC and will be offering courses with certification to the public sector from early 2012.
The Irish version of Scrabble, will be the Deal of the Month again on www.siopa.ie. A wonderful Christmas present at a wonderful price, this game is suitable for all Irish speakers from fluent speakers to learners!
ClubLeabhar.com has been going from strength to strength since the current series began in September and we recently added something new to the site: video interviews with authors and literary critics. This article contains links to those interviews and also a list of the books we’ve chosen for the period January-June 2012.
Hundreds of musicians and traditional music enthusiasts will be heading to the Donegal Gaeltacht of Gaoth Dobhair at the end of this month to attend The Frankie Kennedy Winter School, an annual festival which first took place in 1994 and is still proving as popular as ever.
Avoid panic buying this Christmas! We’ve put together a list of suggestions for Christmas presents for people of all ages who are interested in Irish.
€1,500 worth of Irish language night classes, e-learning courses and language resources to be won!
Congratulations to the winners of the October competition!
The interviews with native Irish speakers from Donegal contained on the website www.bealoideas.com give a great insight into the customs and lives of those people, and a taste of the living language of the Gaeltacht.
Nuachtlitir Ghaelchultúir recently asked our own Lisa Madden to try OpenOffice, the multiplatform and multilingual office suite available for free online, just to see how easy it would be to install and use.
