New Festival: Féile Scéalta na hIthreach

“Féile Scéalta na hIthreach gives students the chance to explore the links between local placenames and their Green–Schools activities: from conserving water and fostering biodiversity to reducing litter and waste. We are also delighted to offer the competition in a bilingual format, with an emphasis on celebrating and creating through the Irish language.” – Joanne Scott, Bainisteoir Chlár na Scoileanna Glasa 

Tapaigí an deis an Ghaeilge a chur chun cinn agus an Clár Scoileanna Glasa idir lámha agaibh
