With home-schooling, online learning and lockdown now becoming the new normal, it's safe to say that current circumstances are taking its toll on everyone, especially our little ones.
Over the last few months, staff at Birmingham Irish Association have been planning a new project with other Irish creatives within the city and our local Catholic primary schools, to aid with pupil's catch up of the National Curriculum whilst spreading knowledge of Irish heritage, traditions and culture.
This specific project is soon to be delivered in a handful of schools across the city, once they are able to reopen, and we are planning to deliver flexible sessions within the spring and summer terms of this year.
If you are a teacher, or are part of a school who would be interested in our sessions, please email jennifer@birish.org.uk for further information.
