Ceol ‘s Comhrá is a group aimed at Secondary School Students offering them an opportunity to use whatever Irish they may have while trying out different activities. Last year members of the group tried their hand at everything from pottery to outdoor pursuits.

This year Ceol ‘s Comhrá will be behind the camera, getting involved in every stage of film making, from script writing to costume making to composing a sound track. The group will meet up every Monday from 6.00-7.30 in the NYP in Castlebar.

With 40% of the overall grade in Junior and Leaving Certificate Irish now going towards the oral exam it's a great opportunity to practise speaking Irish in a relaxed, informal setting outside of the school gates, and have a bit of craic at the same time. Everyone is welcome regardless of what level of Irish they think they may have...Cuirfear fáilte roimh gach éinne!

There are a limited number of places available in the group. If you are interested in getting involved come along to Castlebar NYP Monday 30 January at 6pm.

There is a €5 registration fee, and a €2 attendance fee per week. This project is funded by Foras na Gaeilge.
