⛰️ Cuairt Coiseachd sna Pentlands - Pentlands Hillwalk ⛰️

Bha dà latha sgoinneil againn a-mach air Mònadh Peantland le Spòrs Gàidhlig. Air Diciadain chaidh sinn a-mach le buidheann ann an S3, agus Diardaoin le buidheann ann an S6.

Chaidh sinn suas trì mullaichean - West Kip, East Kip, agus Scald Law - a' coiseachd mu 14km uile gu lèir. Dh'ionnsaich sinn mun mhòintich, na cearcan fraoich, agus seallaidhean mun cuairt oirnn.

Ar thaing do Spòrs Gàidhlig airson a' chuairt seo a stiùireadh!

We had two great days out on the Pentland Hills with Spòrs Gàidhlig. Wednesday was spent with a group from S3, and Thursday with S6s.

We climbed three hills - West Kip, East Kip, and Scald Law - covering around 14km each day. We learnt about the moors, the Grouse, and the surrounding areas.

Thank you to Spòrs Gàidhlig for leading on this trip!

Prògram Samhraidh Dhùn Èideann

Thairis air na seachdainean a dh'fhalbh, bha tòrr a' dol an seo ann an Dhùn Èideann, eadar clubaichean BRAG agus BRAGAIL.

Aig club BRAG ghabh sinn turas suas gu Pairc Taigh an Ròid, far an do rinn sinn cuairt nàdair mun cuairt a’ phàirc, ag ionnsachadh faclan Gàidhlig airson an nàdair mun cuairt oirnn. Air ais aig an talla bha gu leòr ri dhèanamh eadar pròiseactan ealain, geamaichean cairt is buird, agus fiù 's cothrom air an Nintendo Wii!

Aig club BRAGAIL bha trì làithean trang againn, le làithean a-mach ann an Glaschu agus Sruighlea, agus cuairt mun cuairt Dhùn Èideann cuideachd. Taing do Caitlin agus an sgioba aig Àrainneachd Eachdraidheil Alba airson ar sealtain mun cuairt a’ chaisteal ann an Sruighlea.

Over the past couple of weeks we've had a busy summer programme here in Edinburgh, between both the BRAG and the BRAGAIL clubs.

As part of the BRAG club we took a trip to Holyrood Park, where we took part in a nature walk, learning the Gaelic words for the nature we found around us. Back at the hall there was plenty to do, between tote bag decorating, card games, and even a shot on the Nintendo Wii!

At the BRAGAIL club we had a busy three days, with daytrips to Glasgow and Stirling, plus a day exploring Edinburgh too. The highlights were the National Museum in Edinburgh, the Transport Museum and Kelvingrove in Glasgow, and the Castle in Stirling.

Thanks to Caitlin and the team at Historic Environment Scotland for showing us around Stirling Castle and giving us a tour in Gaelic!

Air Dihaoine, chaidh sinn a-mach air turas gu Eilean Inchcolm. Dh'ionnsaich sinn tòrr mu dheidhinn eachdraidh an abaid, a chaidh a thogail anns an 12mh linn, agus chunnaic sinn tòrr faoileagan mun cuairt, cuid aca le iseanan beaga cuideachd.

Eadar an abaid eachdraidheil, faoileagan fiadhaich, agus bàta bòidheach, bha fìor dheagh thuras againn!

On Friday we had a great time out at Inchcolm Island. We learned about the history of the abbey, built in the 12th century, and we saw plenty seagulls flying around the island, some of which had chicks with them too!

Bha fìor dheagh spòrs againn an t-seachdain 'sa aig Campa Spòrs CnaG!

Thairis air na trì làithean, chluich sinn iomadh diofair spòrs, mar ball-coise, ball-basgaid, dodgeball, spikeball, is eile. ⚽️🏀

Air an latha mu dheireadh chaidh sinn gu Fountain Park, far an robh tòrr spòrs againn. 🎳

Taing uile airson a' tighinn!
