Cllr. Seán Ó hArgáin (Gaelscoil Osraí Kilkenny)

"Tá Gaelscoil Osraí ag úsáid 'League Leader Cluiche Cláir Iománaíochta' le beagnach bliain anuas agus tá ár bpáistí an-sásta leis. Spreagann sé caint i nGaeilge sna hárdranganna agus cuireann sé go mór le húsáid foclóir na hiománaíochta i slí spraoiúil. Molaimid an chluiche seo go mór. Is féidir an chluiche a fheiscint ag seastán ár scoileanna inniu".

"Gaelscoil Osraí has been using 'League Leader Cluiche Cláir Iománaíochta'  for the past year and our pupils are delighted with it. It is a great way of stimulating informal use of Gaeilge in the senior classes and of developing the children's use of hurling terminology in partiular. As well as this it's a very entertaining game in its own right and we highly recommend it to schools".

The League Leader Irish language hurling board game will be used as an interactive teaching aid that encourages fluency in the Irish language as well as promoting hurling within schools. Essentially, students playing the Irish language hurling board game will enjoy speaking Irish whilst engaged in a fun activity. Therefore, increasing their willingness to speak Irish as gaeilge. Below are a series of graphs showing the feedback from a sample of primary school students from sponsored schools who have played the League Leader Irish language hurling board game. The feedback provided by the students is shown by percentage.
