Training Of Gaelic Tutors
This week The Highland
Council has been running a special six day immersion training course for
Gaelic language tutors in Portree, with 12 students signed up for the
introductory course.
Skye and
Lochalsh Community Learning and Development Officer (Gaelic), Shona
Paterson has organised the Ulpan training course which is being held in
Tigh na Sgire. She said: "Ulpan is a fast and effective way to learn a
language. It has been used to great effect in Israel, where it originated,
and in Wales.
"As
Ulpan is a new way of teaching, tutors need to be trained and accredited
in the system. Cli Gaidhlig has joined forces with Deiseal Earranta Ltd to
provide this. Deiseal is a company set up by Daibhidh Grannd and Guto Rhys,
both language tutors and linguists, to adapt the Welsh system to Gaelic."
The
introductory course is familiarising trainee-tutors with the Ulpan
methodology and ethos, key skills and their contractual obligations with
Deiseal Earranta.
Over the
six days trainee tutors circulate between teaching students and taking
part in workshops where instruction in basic grammar, Gaelic dialects,
teaching pronunciation and group management is being delivered. These
sessions also provide opportunities for peer review learning.
Councillor Hamish Fraser, Chairman of The Highland Council's Gaelic
Committee said: "One of the many aims of the Council's Draft Gaelic
Language Plan is to provide opportunities to Council staff and members of
the Community to learn Gaelic and Ulpan is one of the methods which can
provide this.
"Ulpan
is ideal for people who wish to learn to speak Gaelic with real
confidence, such as people who need Gaelic for their work, parents with
children in Gaelic-medium education people who have moved to a
Gaelic-speaking community and employers wishing to provide in-house
language tuition, Learning should be fun and I believe that Ulpan classes
are fun and rewarding for learners and tutors alike, as everyone can see a
steady growth in ability and confidence, week on week."
Daibhidh
Grant, Director of Deiseal Ltd, the developers of Ulpan said: "This is a
great course for complete beginners but it's also very useful for people
with good reading and writing skills in Gaidhlig but who can't understand
or speak it, it acts like glue for all the bits."

Rannsachadh ùr air a' Ghàidhlig toiseachadh an t-seachdain seo
English Below
Thèid rannsachadh mòr a thòiseachadh an t-seachdain seo a bhios coimhead
air buaidh na Gàidhlig air fàs eaconomach, is e toirt sùil air àite is
inbhe na Gàidhlig, ann am margadh obrach air feadh na h-Alba.
Bidh an
rannsachadh a' coimhead air an àireamh de dh'eagrachaidhean air feadh na
h-Alba a tha fastadh luchd-obrach ann an dreuchdan far a bheil a'
Ghàidhlig na buannachd no iomchaidh; dè seòrsa dreuchdan a tha annta, agus,
mar a bhios na h-eagrachaidhean seo a' sùileachadh gun àrdaich am feum
airson sgilean Gàidhlig san àite-obrach.
Theid an
rannsachadh maoineachadh le Dreuchdan Alba, Bòrd na Gàidhlig agus Iomairt
na Gaidhealtachd s nan Eilean.
Thar na
beagan làithean a tha romhainn, gheibh còrr air 250 buidheann air feadh na
dùthcha ceisteachain a' coimhead air chuspairean mar cia mheud dreuchd a
tha ann an gach buidheann far a bheil a' Ghàidhlig na sgil cudromach, dè
ìre fileantais a tha a dhìth agus far a bheil na h-obraichean.
Mar
thoradh air Achd na Gàidhlig, le Seirbheis Dhidseatach Ghàidhlig air fàire
agus le ùidh ann an cànan, dualchas agus cultar nan Gàidheal a' fàs, tha
feum nas motha ann airson daoine le sgilean sa chànan a bhith san
àite-obrach. Tha seo a' toirt a-steach obair eadar-theangachaidh, teagaisg,
craobh-sgaoilidh agus sna gnìomhachasan cruthachail.
Bidh an
sgrùdadh seo a' cleachdadh dòigh-obrach fharsaing gus oidhirp a dhèanamh
inbhe na Gàidhlig san àite-obrach a mheasadh san fharsaingeachd.
Thuirt
Ian Carse, Dreuchdan Alba air a' Ghaidhealtachd is anns na h-Eileanan: "'S
e sgrùdadh gu math cudromach a tha seo agus, leis na leasachaidhean tha a'
tighinn air a' chànan, tha e an deagh àm. Cuidichidh an rannsachadh seo
sinn tomhas fhaighinn air an iarrtas a tha ann airson sgilean Gàidhlig ann
an àitean-obrach na h-Alba, agus gus modhan-obrach a chur air dòigh airson
na tha a' Ghàidhlig a' cur ri fàs seasmhach eaconomach na h-Alba a
leudachadh.
Lean Mgr
Carse air: "Tha sinn a' tòiseachadh gus buannachdan foghlam dà-chànanach
aithneachadh gu slàn a thaobh leasachadh cànanachais, foghlaim agus
sgilean. Cuideachd, bidh an sgrùdadh a' beachdachadh air cothroman dreuchd
nas fheàrr don fheadhainn aig a bheil a' Ghàidhlig an-dràsta, no do chlann
a tha san siostam fhoghlam dà-chànanach, no a tha gu bhith dol ann."
Thuirt
Rosemary Ward, Manaidsear Fhoghlaim aig Bòrd na Gàidhlig, "Tha Bòrd na
Gàidhlig, an com-pàirteachas le Comunn na Gàidhlig, gu mòr an sàs ann a
bhi toirt piseach air dreuchdan na Gàidhlig. Chuir Bòrd na Gàidhlig air
doigh bho chionn ghoirid Iomairt Trusaidh Tidsearan Gàidhlig a
dh'adhbhraich mòran cheistean mu thrèanadh thidsearan is fiosrachadh mu
dhreuchdan san fharsaingeachd".
Is iad
Hecla Consulting a nì an rannsachadh, is gheibhear grèim orra air 01463
712600 no aig hecla@heclaconsulting.co.uk. Bu choir na ceisteachain a
thilleadh ro 31mh Màrt 2008. Thèid toraidhean an sgrùdaidh fhoillseachadh
nas fhaide am bliadhna fhathast.

New Gaelic research launched this week
A major study is launched
this week on the role of Gaelic in economic growth in Scotland, focusing
on its place in the Scottish labour market.
The
study will look at how many organisations across Scotland are currently
employing staff in posts where Gaelic is desirable essential skill. It
will research how these organisations envisage the demand for Gaelic
skills in the workplace is likely to increase.
The
study is funded by Careers Scotland, Bòrd na Gàidhlig and Highlands and
Islands Enterprise HIE.
Over the
next few days, more than 250 organisations across Scotland will receive a
questionnaire requesting information such as how many posts there are in
each place of work where Gaelic is an important skill, the level of
fluency and where these posts are based.
The
Gaelic Language Act, the imminent launch of a Gaelic Digital Service and
an ever growing interest in Gaelic language, heritage and culture has led
to a growth in demand for individuals with skills in the language. Posts
include translators, teachers and in the broadcasting and creative
industries sector.
This
study will endeavour to take a wide-ranging approach to assess the broader
status of Gaelic in the Scottish labour market.
Ian
Carse, head of career related information and learning in Careers Scotland
in the Highlands and Islands, said: "As an all age agency this is a very
important study for Careers Scotland, and given the ongoing developments
in the language, it is quite timely. This study will begin to help us
quantify the increasing demand for Gaelic skills in the workplace across
Scotland and assist us in devising strategies for growing the contribution
of Gaelic to sustainable economic growth in Scotland.
"We are
beginning to fully recognise the benefits of bilingual education in terms
of linguistic, educational and skills development. This study will also
consider the enhanced career prospects for current Gaelic speakers and for
children currently in or entering the bilingual education system."
Rosemary
Ward, education manager at Bòrd na Gàidhlig said: "Bòrd na Gàidhlig, in
partnership with Comunn na Gàidhlig, is actively involved in the promotion
of Gaelic career opportunities. The Bòrd recently mounted a targeted
Gaelic Teacher Recruitment Campaign in the Highlands and Islands which
resulted in a number of positive enquiries for teacher training and
generic career information."
The
study will be conducted by Hecla Consulting who can be contacted at 01463
712600 or at hecla@heclaconsulting.co.uk. Questionnaires should be
returned by 31 March 2008. Results of the research will be published later
this year.

Council confirms commitment to Gaelic Plan
The Highland Council has confirmed its
Highland-wide policy on bi-lingual road signs.
At a
full Council meeting on Thursday 6th March 2008, the Council voted in
support of an amendment by Councillor Hamish Fraser Chairman of the
Council's Gaelic Committee, to support the Council policy as set out in
its Gaelic Language Plan.
In doing
so, the meeting rejected by 36 votes to 29 a notice of motion by 8
Caithness Councillors who wanted their area excluded from the policy
stating: "...the blanket roll out of bi-lingual signs in the Highlands
should only proceed where there exists significant local demand for such a
policy."
Councillor Hamish Fraser said: "I am pleased that the Council has
confirmed its Highland-wide support for our policy on bi-lingual signage."
Highland
Council's draft Gaelic Language Plan was adopted by the Council's Gaelic
Committee on November 8 2007 and was submitted to Bord na Gaidhlig on
October 1 2007, as required by the Gaelic Language Act 2005.
The plan
states that for road signage: "town, city and village welcome signs and
Council road signs will be bilingual. Signs will incorporate historic
village, town and city crests where appropriate. Gaelic will be placed
above the English on these signs. Gaelic will be green and English in
black. The size of the letters will be the same in each language. When
existing signs require to be replaced due to age or damage, bilingual
signs will be erected. Historic and visitor signs commissioned by the
Council to direct people to historic and visitor events and venues should
be bilingual unless this conflicts with Scottish Government regulations.
The spelling of place names will be determined through consultation with
Ainmean Aite na h-Alba."
For
street name signs the plan states that: "...the adoption of Gaelic names
will be encouraged on new streets and developments, using local historic
and cultural connections wherever this information is available. Public
opinion will be sought through the local Community Councils and the views
of the local elected Members will be taken into account. In the event of a
disagreement, the matter will be referred to the Planning, Environment and
Development Committee. When existing street name signs require to be
replaced due to age or damage, the new signs will be bilingual. Gaelic
will be placed above English on these signs. The size of the letters will
be the same in each language. Contractors erecting temporary signs will
use bilingual signage. This will be required as an integral part of the
contracting process."

GAELIC MUSICIANS TARGET MAINSTREAM BREAKTHROUGH
Gaelic music continues its
breakthrough into mainstream music with stirring harmonies from one of
Gaeldom's newest bands, thanks to Scottish Music Futures, a development
fund to help cultivate the music industry in Scotland.
Broadcaster-musician Mary Ann Kennedy, who is herself at the heart of
Scotland's traditional music scene, has unleashed her latest venture - a
'gathering of Gaeldom's young lions' - with the launch of her new seven
man supergroup, Mary Ann Kennedy & Na Seòid.
Na Seòid
translates as 'the heroes', and the seven young band members have
each won their fair share of traditional music's highest accolades. Mary
Ann is one of just a handful of singers to win both Gold Medals at the
Royal National Mod, along with a prestigious Saltire award at the Scots
Traditional Music Awards.
Mary Ann
Kennedy said: "What's special about this group is that Gaelic is part of
every day life, for every single one of them, and not just a language for
the stage. I think that's a powerful element, which in turn has a
fundamental impact on the way they perform the music".
Ian
Hamilton, HIE creative industries senior development manager said: "This
is a great example of the Scottish Music Futures fund helping small
Highland businesses collaborate to create something new and different. It
is also shows what can be achieved from helping young musicians and those
with technical skills, to achieve their full potential without leaving the
country."
Mary Ann
and husband Nick Turner recently benefited from the fund, when they
received help to market their new top of the range recording and
multi-media studio in the tiny loch side village of Ardgour, near Fort
William.
Mary Ann
Kennedy and Na Seòid recorded their debut album, under the Lochaber-based
record label 'Watercolour Music', and launched it at the final night of
Glasgow's Celtic Connections festival in the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall.
Another
business link in the band's success story is their agent, Davy Gardner,
from Shetland. He said: "2007 was the year that Gaelic music finally and
deservedly reached a wider audience, largely due to the success of a new
wave of young Gaelic musicians such as Julie Fowlis. Mary Ann Kennedy and
Na Seòid look set to blow another fresh breeze through Scotland and
further afield."
The
creative industries employs the equivalent of 100,000 full-time jobs in
Scotland and the Scottish Music Futures fund is designed to help those
working in the music business to achieve their full economic potential.
The
Scottish Music Futures fund is administered by Highlands and Islands
Enterprise (HIE) for the whole of Scotland, in partnership with Scottish
Enterprise and the Scottish Arts Council.

BUIDHEANN DRÀMA AIR CHUAIRT MHÒR SNA SGOILTEAN GHÀIDHLIG
English Version Below
Dealbh-chluich ùr - Fògarraich na Grèine – gu bhith air fhaicinn le
sgoilearan Gàidhlig
Tha Meanbh-chuileag, a'
bhuidheann-dràma aig Fèisean nan Gàidheal, air an rathad an-dràsta le
dealbh-chluich ùr beòthail a bhios a’ tadhal air cha mhòr gach sgoil
Ghàidhlig air feadh na dùthcha thairis air na seachdainean a tha romhainn.
Tha an dealbh-chluiche
ag amas air clasaichean 4 gu 7 sa bhun-sgoil Ghàidhlig, ach tha e
cuideachd freagarrach do chloinn nas òige.
Tha
Fògarraich na Grèine, a chaidh
a sgrìobhadh le Seònaid NicDhòmhnaill, a' togail chuspairean cudromach
agus inntinneach mu shlàinte na Cruinne. An e ar dòigh-beatha a tha ag
adhbhrachadh nan atharrachaidhean seo? No an e rud nàdarra a th' ann?
Ceistean duilich, ach le taic bho na prìomh charactaran, Daibhidh agus
Uilleam, cuiridh an luchd-èisteachd an t-Ollamh ceart!
Cluinnidh sinn cuideachd bho charactaran eile, leithid Winfred, Inuit òg à
Alasga, a dh'innseas dhuinn mu na h-atharrachaidhean a chunnaic e thàr nam
bliadhnaichean. Gheibh sinn a-mach mu dheidhinn cumhachd na grèine agus
cumhachd nan tonnan, mu ghasaichean greenhouse agus mu mhathain-gheala. Mu
dheireadh, 's ann an urra ris an luchd-èisteachd fhèin a tha e taghadh a
dhèanamh air dè bu chòir dèanamh airson stad a chur air èiridh nan tonnan...
A thuilleadh air an
dealbh-chluich fhèin, gheibh na sgoilearan bùth-obrach a bhios a' togail
air cuid de na puingean as cudromaiche.
Tha dithis chleasaiche
san dealbh-chluich: Darren Macilleathain (An t-Eilean Sgitheanach), agus
Daibhidh Byrne (Inbhir Nis). Chaidh an dealbh-chluich a stiùireadh le
Calum Rothach agus Dougie Beck, le taic bho Ruairidh MacNeacail (À Eden).
Eadar 4 Geàrran agus 20 Màrt, bidh na balaich a' tadhal air cha mhòr 60
bun-sgoil Ghàidhlig, anns gach ceàrnaidh de dh'Alba. Gheibhear clàr-ama
airson na cuairte aig deireadh a' bhratha seo.
Mar a thuirt Dougie
Beck, Oifigear Pròiseict Meanbh-chuileag: "Tha sinn a' faireachdainn gu
bheil e air leth cudromach gum faigh sgoilearan òga ann am foghlam tro
mheadhan nan Gàidhlig cothrom dealbhan-cluiche a leithid seo fhaicinn sna
sgoiltean aca fhein; tha sinn a' dèiligeadh le cuspair anabarrach
cudromach an seo – cuspair a tha a' bualadh oirnn uile."
Thuirt Ceannard Fèisean
nan Gàidheal, Art MacCarmaig; “Tha Fèisean nan Gàidheal air a bhith an-sàs
barrachd is barrachd ann an leasachaidhean dràma na Gàidhlig, agus tha
sinn air leth toilichte gu bheil e air a bhith comasach dhuinn taic a
chumail dhan aon chompanaidh dràma Gàidhlig a tha ag obair ann am foghlam
thairis air na beagan bhliadhnaichean a dh’fhalbh. Tha cruaidh fheum air
an t-seòrsa obrach a tha seo far a bheil clann anns na sgoiltean Ghàidhlig
a’ cluinntinn na Gàidhlig ann an dòigh neo-fhoirmeil, spòrsail. Bu chòir
dhan t-seirbheis seo a bhith na pàirt gu math cudromach de dh’fhoghlam tro
mheadhan na Gàidhlig agus bu chòir barrachd den leithid a bhith a’
tachairt a-measg leasachaidhean eile air a bheil feum ann an saoghal dràma
na Gàidhlig aig ìre coimhearsnachd agus ìre proifeiseanta.”
Chaidh a' chuairt seo a
mhaoineachadh le Iomairt na Gàidhealtachd agus nan Eilean agus Comhairle
na Gàidhealtachd le taic-airgid bho Bhòrd na Gàidhlig.
DRAMA GROUP ON MARATHON TOUR OF GAELIC SCHOOLS
A new
play - Fògarraich na Grèine (The Sun Refugees) - to be performed to Gaelic
pupils
Meanbh-chuileag,
Fèisean
nan Gàidheal's theatre-in-education group, is on the road just now with an
exciting new interactive play that will be visiting almost every
Gaelic-medium school in Scotland over the next few weeks in a marathon
tour funded by Highlands & Islands Enterprise and The Highland Council
with financial assistance from Bòrd na Gàidhlig.
The play is aimed at
years 4 to 7 in the primary school, although it is also suitable for
younger children.
Fògarraich na Grèine (The Sun
Refugees) was written by Seònaid MacDonald and focuses on important
aspects of the future of our planet. Is it our lifestyle that is bringing
about these changes? Or is it a natural occurrence? Difficult questions,
but with help from the main characters, Daibhidh and Uilleam, the audience
tell the Professor how it really is!
We also hear from other
characters, including Winfred, a young Inuit from Alaska who tells us
about the changes he has seen over the years. We find out about solar
power and wave power, about greenhouse gasses and polar bears. Finally,
it's up to the audience to choose how best to stop the waves from rising
...
In addition to the play
itself, pupils also receive a workshop which expands on some of the most
important themes of the play.
There are two actors
involved in the show: Darren MacLean (Skye); and Daibhidh Byrne
(Inverness). The play was directed by Malcolm Munro and Dougie Beck, with
assistance from Roddy Nicolson (Out of Eden). Between 4 February and 20
March, the team will be visiting almost 60 Gaelic-medium primary schools,
in every area of Scotland.
According to Dougie
Beck, Meanbh-chuileag Project Officer: "We feel that it is incredibly
important that young people in Gaelic-medium Education get the opportunity
to see and take part in plays like this in their own schools; we are
dealing with an extremely important subject here – a subject that touches
us all."
"Fèisean nan Gàidheal
has been involved more and more in the development of Gaelic drama," says
Fèisean nan Gàidheal Chief Executive, Arthur Cormack. "We are extremely
happy that it has been possible for us to support, over the last few
years, the only Gaelic drama company which is working in the formal
education sector. Projects like this, where children in Gaelic schools
hear Gaelic in an informal, fun way, are sorely needed. This service
should be an integral part of Gaelic-medium education, and more
opportunities like this tour should be happening among other much-needed
Gaelic drama developments at community and professional levels."

First Minister Opens Scotland's First Purpose Built Gaelic Medium School
Scotland's First Minister Alex Salmond today (Friday 11 January 2008)
formally opened Scotland's first purpose-built Gaelic Medium School at
Inverness.
The £4 million Bun-sgoil Ghaidhlig Inbhir Nis is a focal point for Gaelic
learning in the Inverness area, being available for a wide range of
Gaelic-related events and performances.
There are 101 primary and 50 nursery pupils.
The school, which is located at Slackbuie, adjacent to Inverness Royal
Academy, features 7 classrooms and a resource area. The new building
includes an enhanced school hall, larger than the usual for a school of
this size, and this is equipped with specialist seating to create a mini
venue for Gaelic cultural events.
In addition there is a small recording studio, a parents' room for
meetings and classes and accommodation for the Community Learning Team.
The school also provides nursery and wrap around childcare for the Gaelic
Community in the city.
Before unveiling a plaque to open the school, the First Minister said:
"The opening of Scotland's first purpose built Gaelic school is a
significant moment ~ not just for Inverness but for the whole of Scotland.
Gaelic is an integral part of Scotland's identity and a vital part of the
community life and culture in the Highlands and Islands. Bun-sgoil
Ghaidhlig Inbhir Nis ~ its pupils and teachers ~ has automatically become
part of the international picture to promote Scotland, retain our history
and realise the full economic potential of the Gaelic language.
'I have no doubt that together with our Gaelic schools in Glasgow and
Sleat , Bun-sgoil Ghaidhlig Inbhir Nis will play a key role to increase
the status and use of Gaelic in Scotland.'
Councillor Bill Fernie, Chairman of the The Highland Council's Education
Culture and Sport Committee, said: "This is a very special day for me as
we meet to mark the opening of the first purpose built Gaelic Community
School not just in the Highlands but in Scotland. This project records our
commitment to securing the future of the Gaelic language."
Councillor Hamish Fraser, Chairman of the Council's Gaelic Committee,
added: "This school will not just be about providing for the Gaelic
Education needs of pre-school and primary age pupils, but will be a
resource for the whole Gaelic community in Inverness, in Highland and
across Scotland. A few years ago this would have been no more than a dream
but it symbolises the massive steps that have taken place in Highland and
across Scotland in Gaelic Medium education.
"It also reinforces this Council's commitment to making sure that our
children are given an opportunity to be bilingual at an early age and goes
some way to allow our children to catch up with their European peers who,
in many countries, speak at least three languages before leaving primary
school."
The First Minister was greeted at the school by piper Conall MacIllechiar,
a Secondary 1 pupil of Inverness Royal Academy. Primary 7 pupils at the
new school ~ Shona Crosbie and Donnie Forbes - met Mr Salmond and invited
him to sign the visitors~ book.
Mr Salmond was then given a tour of the new school by Head Teacher, Mrs
Janet MacLeod, before joining 200 guests at the opening ceremony in the
school hall.
Primary 1 pupils, Niamh Kerr and Dominic Ferrier, presented the First
Minister with the gift of a Gaelic calendar featuring the school.
Mrs MacLeod said: "This is of course a very important day, not only for
Gaelic Medium Education, but for The Highland Council with the opening of
Bun-sgoil Ghaidhlig Inbhir Nis being testament to the vision of the
Council for the development of Gaelic. This school is also a tribute to
the dedication of parents and members of the Inverness Gaelic community,
some of whom were present today, some who were not, who worked so hard to
progress Gaelic education to this stage. I consider it a privilege and an
honour to be Head Teacher of the first purpose-built, dedicated Gaelic
school in Scotland."
The school has been built for The Highland Council by Morrison
Construction.
