Gaelscoil Longfoirt 3.43

Tá Gaelscoil Longfoirt ar an bhfód ó 1998 ag cur oideachas lán-Ghaeilge ar fáil i gContae Longfoirt le níos mó
ná cúig bliana déag. Osclaíodh doirse Ghaelscoil Longfoirt don chéad uair ar an Mháirt 1 Meán Fómhair 1998. Lá an-speisialta a bhí ann mar thosaigh an chéad rang de na Naíonáin Bheaga sa chéad Ghaelscoil sa chontae. Is í an Ghaeilge an teanga teagaisc sa scoil agus an teanga cumarsáide idir na múinteoirí, na páistí agus pobal na scoile. Tá an scoil suite i mBaile Longfoirt in aice le Club Peile Flipeadóirí Longfoirt. Mealltar na páistí le bheith bródúil as a dteanga agus as ár gcultúr.

Creidimid i nGaelscoil Longfoirt gur áit shona fhailtiúil í an scoil s’againne ina bhfuil múinteoirí, daltaí agus tuismitheoirí ag tacú agus ag comhoibriú le chéile chun atmaisféar dearfach Gaelach a chothú. Cé gur scoil Chaitliceach í Gaelscoil Longfoirt tugtar aitheantas cóir inti do gach aon chreideamh eile. Mar bhunscoil, spreagtar rannpháirtíocht na Tuismitheoirí agus an pobal le bheith páirteach i saol na scoile. Tá fáilte romhat ar cuairt chuig Gaelscoil Longfoirt chun caighdeán an oideachais a fheiceáil. Táim ag súil go mór le bualadh leat.
Gaelscoil Longfoirt has provided Irish Medium Primary Education in Longford now for over 15 years. Gaelscoil Longfoirt’s doors opened for the first time on Tuesday, 1st September 1998 with 22 children. It was a very special day as it was the first Naíonáin Bheaga (Junior Infant) class to start in the first Gaelscoil in the county. Irish is the medium of teaching in the school and it is also the means of communication between the teachers, children and school community. Gaelscoil Longfoirt is situated in Longford Town, next to Slashers GAA Club and has the use of many facilities in Slashers. The children are encouraged to be proud of our language and of our culture.

We believe in Gaelscoil Longfoirt that our school is a happy welcoming place where teachers, students and parents support and co-operate with each other to create a positive Irish atmosphere. While Gaelscoil Longfoirt is a Catholic School we recognise and welcome all other faiths and religions. As a Primary School, we actively encourage the involvement of parents and members of our community in school life. You are welcome to our school any time to see for yourself the quality of provision we offer. I look forward to meeting you.
