Deireadh-seachdain Cùrsa Bogaidh Gàidhlig | Gàidhlig Immersion Weekend

Tha sinn air bhioran fàilte a chuir oirbh chun deireadh-seachdain cùrsa bogaidh seo.  Ionnsaichidh sinn còmhla agus bidh sinn ag ithe còmhla ‘s mar chaidreabh, cuiridh sinn ùine seachad air na h-òrain, sgeulachdan, naidheachd, eachdraidh, agus barrachd na sin. Gabh fois anns a’ choille.  Coisich an t-slighe NRC. ‘S e sgìre àlainn a th’ ann. Agus, ‘s e deagh chothrom a th’ ann a bhith air do bhogadh ‘s a’ Ghàidhlig.
 
Nach tig sibh còmhla rinn? Tha sinn a’ dèanamh fiughair ri d’fhaicinn!

We are excited to welcome you to this immersion course weekend. We’ll learn together, we’ll eat together, and, in fellowship, we’ll spend some time with songs, tales, stories, history, and more.  Relax in the woods. Walk the NRC trail.  It’s a beautiful area, and it’s a wonderful opportunity to be immersed in Gàidhlig.

Won’t you come? We look forward to seeing you.

WHAT TO EXPECT: WHO’S IT FOR?

Gàidhlig aig a’ Mhuileann-Mhin is designed primarily for adult learners of Scottish Gaelic (Gàidhlig). Registrants should have a basic familiarity with Gàidhlig and be comfortable expressing themselves in the language on at least a basic level so they can participate fully in the educational opportunities offered.

The Immersion Weekend has no provision for childcare or special children’s programming, and we are therefore unable to accommodate children. However, all individuals of any age who are enrolled in classes with Sgoil Gàidhlig Bhaile an Taigh Mhòir may participate in the Immersion Weekend as Full Participants and register as such.
