The centre has attracted widespread interest and support from the local and wider community, and has become the major driving force in the development of Irish language and indigenous arts services on th

e island. Alongside a year-round programme of arts activity and performances, the organization has delivered several large-scale projects in its lifetime including the Festival IMBOLC, the traditional Irish music school An tAcadamh Cheoil, and the youth club Club Óige Setanta.

Club Óige Gaeilge atá i gClub Óige Setanta a chuireann seirbhisí óige ar fáil do dhaoine óga atá, nó a bhí ag freastal ar ghaelscoil. Tá clár tarraingteach againn a bhíonn ar siúl i rith na bliana agus a fhreastalaíonn ar riachtanais na hóige.

Tugann an club deis do dhaoine óga an Ghaeilge a úsáid go neamhfhoirmiúil agus iad ag bualadh le gaeilgeoirí óga taobh amuigh den scoil.

Club Óige Setanta is an Irish language youth group which provides youth services for young people who are attending or have attended Irish medium schools. We offer an attractive programme throughout the year which meets the needs of the young people.

The club gives young people the opportunity to use Irish informally while meeting other young Irish speakers outside of school.

A powerful presentation from Honor the Earth today on the historical timeline of settler colonialism and its impact on Indigenous peoples, land, culture and sovereignty.

The session looked at how that history continues to shape life for Indigenous communities today, from the loss of land and attempts to suppress culture to ongoing struggles for sovereignty, rights and environmental justice.
