    Hi,

    Just wondering does anybody know of anywhere adults can do Irish speaking lessons in drogheda?
    I’ll be looking to do some myself in the next year or so as I will be sending the kids to a Gaelscoil and would like to know the basics at least :)

    Contact the school, i know the Irish school in Mornington do classes for the mammies and i think they do a kinda coffee morning, i know there is a group of irish speaking mams do be in the Bagel bar at the same time as the first tuesday group, dont know if they meet every tuesday

    A while ago the GAA club on piltown road did host adult lessons.
    The gaelscoil on mil road does it as well, ask them if it’s open to parents whose kids are attending the school or to all.

    Hi Julymam,

    Perhaps get in touch with Edgewater college in Drogheda, they may be able to help you.

    also, Gaelscoil an Brhadain Feasa does them, you can contact the scoil to see if they have any spaces.

    if you are sending your child to the irish school in mornington, they do evening classes for parents..

    well worth it, so you don’t need to panic straight away….there are some mommies here who have done the irish classes and are doing fine never having spoken a word before…

    also jomoodor she’s a playschool irish teacher naonari….pm her she may be able to help…

    On the subject of Irish, just to let you know in my daughters secondary school they are no longer doing the oral Irish exam for Intercert (so assuming Leaving Cert also). Its all written now. Lots of the students from the Irish schools are bit put out they don’t get to use their oral Irish now. They say they are much better at speaking it than writing it.? I don’t know why this is but it means the subject is being taught for written work only, not as an oral language.

    Thanks girls,
    i’m hoping to send the to An Bhradain Feasa Sabbi so good to know they do the adult lessons i’ll have to check it out.
    Ds wont be starting for a couple of yrs so just enquiring at the mo, I had a look on edgewaters website the other day and couldn’t find Irish lessons.
    I would love to be able to speak it fluent myself, maybe in a few yrs 😀

    Sorry for hijacking your thread but I’m looking for one-to-one Irish classes so I’ve been looking for information and I found this:
    https://www.gaelchultur.com/index.php?v … =4&lang=en
    DIFE are running an ‘Irish for parents’ course I think it’s on Tuesday nights for 10 weeks.
    These might be good for someone who studied Irish before? I’m looking for more intense classes to prepare for an Irish interview, if anyone on here runs classes in Drogheda it would be great to hear from you 😀
