Every year in Our Lady of Mercy Convent School, we celebrate Seachtain na Gaeilge. This gives us all an opportunity to enjoy our Irish culture and language. This year, Seachtain na Gaeilge will be celebrated albeit somewhat remotely from
Monday 15th March to Friday the 19th of March 2021

Bhí an seachtain againn ag ceiliúradh Seachtain na Gaeilge cé nach rabhamar in ann gach rud a dhéanamh mar is gnáth. As reflected here on our youtube video, we had a great week celebrating Seachtain na Gaeilge ( Irish Week ) despite the current restrictions. Even though we stayed apart, it was a great week for us all.
