An t-earrach - The Spring

 

Halo a-rithist! Ciamar a tha sibh uile?

Hello again, how are you all?

 

I wonder if you have spotted some signs of spring? Flowers are popping up with beautiful colours. Have you seen them? What else have you seen, have a look at the scavenger Hunt?

The-Hebridean-Handbook-In-the-Garden is a lovely bilingual resource.

The vocabulary this week is the same as last week. You can hear how to pronounce these words and phrases here

SLIGHE NA CÀISGE | EASTER TRAIL

It has been so long since we have been able to see you all, and we are really missing Cròileagan sessions. We won’t be back together in the normal way anytime soon, but we do have a wee Easter treat planned.

Weather and restrictions permitting, we will be hosting an Easter trail in Pilrig Park on the morning of Friday March 26th. The trail will run from 10am to 12noon, with half hour slots that you will need to book in advance.

We will post more details about how the trail will work, and how to book a slot, closer to the time. For now, save the date, and let others you are in contact with know about it.

We look forward to seeing you then!

If you came to our Christmas Trail, please give us your thoughts on how it worked. What did you particularly like about it, and what could we have done differently or better?

With regard to the Easter Trail, there may be the opportunity to run a second trail Wednesday 31^st March on the south side of the city too. Please let us know if this would be something you would be interested in.

Post your thoughts in the comments, or email kinsella.anna@gmail.com.
