Tá 50 bliain taithí ag Coláiste na bhFiann ag reáchtáil cúrsaí samhraidh Gaeilge laistigh agus lasmuigh den Ghaeltacht le príomhaidhm amháin. Is é sin Gaeilge a mhúineadh do dhaoine óga i suíomh fáilteach taitneamhach, rud a spreagann meon dearfach iontu i leith na teanga. Tá córas láidir bunaithe ag Coláiste na bhFiann a thógann ar an nGaeilge atá foghlamtha acu sa chóras oideachais. Coláiste na bhFiann has 50 years’ experience running Irish language summer courses in both Gaeltacht areas and residential colleges. The main purpose of the organisation is to teach young people to speak Irish in a welcoming environment that encourages a positive attitude towards the language. Building on the basics of Irish learned within the traditional schools’ structure, Coláiste na bhFiann has developed a formula that has successfully helped generations of young people to enjoy using and improving their Irish language skills. 48 Services: Gaeltacht summer courses | Weekly Youth Clubs | School Tours | Weekend activity courses Cúrsaí – Courses: • Ros Muc, Co. na Gaillimhe Rule A Course – Students stay with families (13 – 18 mbliana d’aois / 13 – 18 year olds) • Ráth Chairn, Co. na Mí Rule B Course – Students stay with families (1 – 5 blian / 1st – 5th year) • Gaoth Dobhair, Co.
