Leabhair Labhartha
  Our Leabhair Labhartha section now contains 19 little interactives that are aimed at lower Primary Gaeilge. Each interactive is highly visual and allows the child to read and to hear the words spoken. Great for use in class through projector or interactive whiteboard.

Follow Daithí in Uganda - April notes added
  We have added Daithí's April activities to the page. April covers human rights - children all around the world have rights and  some children have their right's denied, both in Ireland and in Uganda. The resources are developed by Carolyn Buttimer, a cork Primary teacher, who is working with an NGO in Uganda.
