Kerry County Council
Kerry County Council have announced the allocation of €1,000 to support the development of Irish Language Ciorcal Comhrá across Kerry. The scheme will help community groups to run a Ciorcal Comhrá in partnership with their local Gaelscoil, Gaeltacht school, or branch of Glór na nGael, Conradh na Gaeilge, GAA or Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann.
Gaeltacht areas will not be forgotten during Seachtain na Gaeilge, where a new Gaeltacht Gateway sign is to be piloted for the road leading to the Clochán-Bréanainn Gaeltacht. This decision sits well with a key tourism objective of the Council to develop Irish Language Tourism in our Gaeltacht areas.
Also the highly successful Duolingo app, which has 2.6 million people learning Irish worldwide, the 9th most popular language being learnt, is now available on the Kerry Library website at www.kerrylibrary.ie
Kerry County Council Chief Executive, Moira Murrell said that this is a wonderful opportunity for the people of Kerry to practise their Irish with the Council and she encouraged everyone to participate in Seachtain na Gaeilge.
“As part of our publicity drive, the public will see Labhair Gaeilge Linn! signage on many council vehicles around Kerry and at the public counters at our offices, as well as our libraries. We are urging everyone in the county to get involved and to try a cúpla focail,” said Ms. Murrell.
The Window Display competition, An Fhuinneog is Gaelaí will be run by Conradh na Gaeilge, Fóram Gaeilge Chiarraí and the Business Community with a prize fund of €1,000 from Kerry County Council.
