Comm Nam Parant Aonghais – the parent group for children in Gaelic medium units in Angus are having their A.G.M on Thursday, 22nd March at 3.30pm in the GMU at Whitehills Primary School.  All are welcome.  We have a few guests coming along, Gillian MacDonald (school teacher of the GMU), Susan Duff (Education), Chris Duplano (Gaelic Development Officer Perth/Kinross Council) with a few more to respond.  Hopefully this will give much needed clarity to anyone interested in what is being achieved in Gaelic Medium education.  Tapadh Leat (Thanks)
