Say Yes to Languages

Our school registered to participate in the "Say Yes to Languages" Primary Sampler Module and were successful with our application. Mrs. Maguire began teaching the Senior pupils "French" in January and will continue for 8 weeks. 

The aims of the module are to:

• Generate awareness among pupils of the range of languages used by their peers, including Irish Sign Language, in their schools and communities which may help support greater inclusion and appreciation of diversity in society,

• Encourage uptake of languages at post-primary level,

• Provide opportunities for increased levels of collaboration among the school community with regard to the celebration of languages and cultures,

• Support implementation of Languages Connect, Ireland’s Strategy for Foreign Languages in Education 2017–2026.
