Cultúr Club is a weekly club that is a great way for Primary School aged children to have lots of fun, meet new friends, & learn some Irish (Gaeilge) and about Irish culture and heritage through Art, Songs, Games, Dance & more fun activities with our experienced tutors!
Bígí linn – beidh craic agaibh!
Our experienced tutors will be using activity books specially designed for the Cultúr Club project (available to download here), and for different age groups, to introduce children to our native language and to all aspects of Irish culture and heritage through fun activities.
Each year we help children from our Cultúr Club prepare to take part successfully in the Irish language competitions at Feis Ghlaschú
Cultúr Club is the collective title for a variety of exciting and innovative initiatives being developed by
Conradh na Gaeilge in Ireland
to help foster a stronger sense of Irish identity amongst the Irish abroad.
These initiatives aim to assist Irish communities abroad in running the likes of Irish language and culture classes/workshops for children and organising cultural events for all age-groups through Irish.
While we had been running our own Rang na bPáistí (Children’s Class) for many years in the south side of Glasgow, as well as our annual Campa Samhraidh (Irish language Summer Camp) each July, the launch of Cultúr Club in Glasgow marks a natural progression of these activities.
Maintaining a strong link between the younger generation in the Irish community and our native language and culture has always been one of our key aims.
This is a project that has received generous support from the Irish Government’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade’s Emigrant Support Programme
‘Mol an óige and tiocfaidh sí!’ as the Irish proverb says: ‘Praise the young and they will flourish.’”
