This website focuses on developing Gaelic language skills. It is primarily aimed at Gaelic learners working towards second and third levels of Curriculum for Excellence.
These notes outline some cross-curricular options which could be relevant at different levels, depending on Gaelic fluency. Some activities may also be suitable for learners at other levels, depending on Gaelic comprehension.
All content is achieved through three main characters Finn, Eilidh and Kate, based at an Outdoor Activity Centre. There are opportunities to visit different venues at the centre:
- • Activity House
- • Bunk House
- • Mountain Rescue Post

- - develop Gaelic vocabulary
