    Official opening of the Glen Urquhart Gaelic Unit for pre-school and primary children


    Our son Max helping Dr Alasdair Allan MSP (Minister for Learning & Skills) unveil the plaque to commemorate the opening of the Glen Urquhart Gaelic medium education unit today. We helped campaign to get this going and it's a good feeling to see it come to fruition.

    Very well done!

    Its good to see some of our cultural heritage being given a bit more protection and promotion.

    And if only I spoek a bit more gaelic, I'd have posted in it.
