Fáilte ar ais a chairde! Welcome back everyone to the Bliain Úr, the New Year. Did you get a bronntanas from Daidí na Nollag? A camán, or a sliothar, or a liathróid b’fhéidir! Im sure you are all ar ais ar scoil, doing a lot of obair baile and getting up go luath in the mornings!
Mí Eanáir sees Gort na Móna agus Bun Abhann Dalla play in their cluichí leathcheannais na hÉireann – the All-Ireland semi finals! Unfortunately Gort na Móna lost, ach bhí an mí-ádh orthu – they were unlucky to lose against a team from Corcaigh.
Bun Abhann Dalla play in éadan (against) De La Salle ó Phort Láirge! Ádh mór orthu go léir!
Páirc an Chrócaigh had a big celebration for 125 bliain founded! There was tinte ealaíne, ceol agus craic ann! There was fireworks, music and a good laugh! D’imir Tír Eoghain Átha Cliath, that’s how you say Tyrone played Dublin. You can use that for any two teams you want!
Well a chairde, I hope you enjoyed the edition for Mí Eanáir of Saffron Óg as Gaeilge, and until next month ádh mór!
