Tha sinn ann am Bun-sgoil Bhogha Mòr a’ libhrigeadh foghlam tro mheadhan na Gàidhlig a bharrachd air a’ Bheurla. Tha Sgoil-àraich Gàidhlig do chloinn fo aois sgoile agus clas Gàidhlig P1 to P7. Tha a’ chlann anns na clasaichean Beurla ag ionnsachadh Gàidhlig cuideachd mar darna cànan.
Bowmore Primary School is the only school on Islay that offers Gaelic Medium Education. At Bowmore Primary School, we offer education through the medium of Gaelic as well as English. We have a sgoil-àraich (nursery) for children under school age and Gaelic classes P1 to P7. The children follow the same curriculum but access it through the medium of Gaelic. The children in the English classes also learn Gaelic as a second language.
Tha dà chlas Ghàidhlig san sgoil; G1-3 agus G4-7. ‘S e lan bhogadh a th’air nan tràth ìrean eadar G1-3, far am bi sgoilearan ag ionnsachadh tro mheadhan na Gàidhlig a-mhàin, ach ag obair air an aon churriculeam le clasaichean aig an aon ìre.
Children can attend Sgoil-Àraich (Nursery) from 3 years old. We currently have 2 multi-composite Gaelic Medium classes; G1-3 and G4-7. Children in G1-3, are totally immersed in the language and cover all the same curricular areas as their mainstream peers.
Ann an G4, thèid ionnsachadh air sgilean litearrachd ann am Beurla gus leughadh agus sgrìobhadh leasachadh. Tha Gàidhlig air an teagasg cuideachd agus ‘s e bogadh an t-ainm a th’air an ire seo, far a bheil mesagachadh de Gàidhlig agus Beurla mar phàirt de litearrachd.
In G4, children will enter the immersion stage and will use their language skills to learn to read and write in English as well as continuing their Gaelic learning.
