The Highland Council in partnership with Bun-Sgoil Ghàidhlig Phort Rìgh recently organised a Gaelic language and culture event.
Established actors, musicians and storytellers took part and led the Gaelic cultural sessions while Gaelic Medium Education secondary pupils at Portree High School led the sporting sessions.
Councillor Calum Munro, Chair of The Highland Council Gaelic Committee said: “The Gaelic language cultural events are a great example of partnership working between our Gaelic Medium Education schools and the Highland Council Gaelic Team.
“I was delighted to hear that Gaelic medium secondary pupils were engaging with the project by delivering the Gaelic sports activities to their younger Gaelic Medium peers.
“I would like to acknowledge that The Highland Council are grateful for the financial support received from Bòrd na Gàidhlig for the event.”
Head Teacher, Mrs Flora Guidi said: “The Làithean Cultair project was very successful and inclusive and our pupils in the sgoil-àraich and primary had the opportunity to participate in the sessions which included drama, Gaelic song, art, sports and storytelling.
“Gaelic culture continues to be embedded at the heart of our school and events like the Làithean Cultair enhance their cultural and education experiences while immersed in the Gaelic language.
“I would like to take the opportunity to thank everybody who organised and supported the event, and the staff at Bun-Sgoil Ghàidhlig Phort Rìgh, for making the event educational, informative and enjoyable for our pupils.”
