This club would also help us fill a huge gap in our community as we are an Irish medium school. The Irish language is a minority language here in Northern Ireland, and most families do not speak Irish fluently, therefore once children go home after 3pm, the majority of pupils will not have access to the language again until they return to school the following day, whereas this after school club could give those pupils the opportunity to spend another hour immersed and experiencing the language in a structured way, whilst having fun and also learning.
Our target group would be aged 8 - 12 year olds, but with this funding, we'd actually be able to also provide availability for our 4 - 8 year old foundation stage pupils too.
