Fѐis Òigridh (An Giblean)
Our Youth Fèis will take place from Monday 1st April to Thursday 4th April and is open to young people from P4 through to S6.
We have an amazing team of tutors at each of the three sites this Easter; and all info about workshops, venues, and booking can be found on the following tabs on this site.
We are also putting on a community ceilidh in each location: Tuesday at the Duthac Centre, Tain, followed by Wednesday at the Ullapool Village Hall, and Thursday in the National Hotel in Dingwall. These events will be open to participants and their families as well as the wider community, and will be a chance for you to hear your tutors in concert.
Prìsean & Clàradh
Tha sinn air cumadh nan tachartasan seo atharrachadh gus an dèanamh nas saoire do theaghlaichean agus gus an cunnart a lughdachadh gun caill Fèis Rois airgead orra aig an àm seo. Gun a’ chosgais a bharrachd an lùib tachartas làn-chòmhnaidh a chumail, ‘s urrainn dhuinn an t-seachdain seo fhàgail na thachartas “pàighibh na ‘s urrainn dhuibh”.
Chì sibh ceithir roghainnean pàighidh, a’ tòiseachadh aig “Cha tèid agam air rud sam bith a phàigheadh agus bu thoigh leam àite an-asgaidh fhaighinn.” Ma ‘s urrainn dhuibh barrachd a phàigheadh, an uair sin tha roghainnean agaibh £50, £75, no £100 a phàigheadh. Tha £100 a’ riochdachadh cosgais £25 san latha airson teagasg bho 10m.-3.30f.
Tuigidh sinn nach tèid aig cuid a dhaoine air pàigheadh nan àiteachan sin. Tha sinne ag iarraidh gun tèid aig gach pàiste air brath a ghabhail air a’ chothrom seo, agus faodaidh sibh an roghainn pàighidh a fhreagras oirbh a thaghadh.
Tha a h-uile oide againn nan neach-ciùil proifeiseanta, comasach is fiosrach agus aig a bheil eòlas air a bhith ag obair le òigridh. Tha sgioba de luchd-stiùiridh is luchd-obrach saor-thoileach againn cuideachd a chuidicheas le bhith a’ ruith nan tachartasan againn. Tha an òigridh fo stiùir an luchd-obrach fad an t-siubhail agus bidh sinn ag obair a rèir nan Stiùiridhean airson Dìon Chloinne is Slàinte is Sàbhailteachd. Tha a h-uile neach-obrach againn nam ball den Sgeama PVG a tha air a ruith le Foillseachadh Alba.
Tha e na dhealas dhuinn ceòl traidiseanta a dhèanamh fosgailte dhan h-uile duine. Nam bu toigh leibh bruidhinn rinn, an diomhaireachd, air taic dha luchd-ionnsachaidh le feumalachdan no air so-ruigsinneachd shònraichte dha ur cuid chloinne, chan eil agaibh ach fios a chur gu Fiona no innse dhuinn air an fhoirm chlàraidh.
It was great fun. The tutors were kind and I made lots of friends.
