Comhlucht Forbartha na nDéise receives Award in Glór na nGael National Competition
On Saturday 14 September 2024 staff members from Comhlucht Forbartha na nDéise travelled to Croke Park to attend the award ceremony of the Glór na nGael National Competition. The Glór na nGael National Competition recognizes committees and associations that serve the Irish community and whose aim is to promote the language and culture. A prize fund of €70,000 was awarded to the winners of the Competition on the night.
Comhlucht Forbartha na nDéise is proud to have been awarded the second prize nationally in the Family Section as well as €2000. It is evidence of the work we are doing with families in Gaeltacht na nDéise. We place great emphasis on events for families and we have a good understanding of the different needs of families who are raising children with Irish and families who are learners. We have a strong link with Tuismitheoirí na Gaeltachta as well as the Language Planning Officer in Dún Garbhán.
The Language Planning Officer, Tomás Ó hÓgáin and the Development Manager, Cabríní de Barra were present on Saturday to accept the award.
