This year we have embarked upon a primary school initiative. Our language teachers are now attached to local primary schools and once a week teach French, German or Spanish. The schools we are currently working with are:-

• Annalong Primary School
• St. Joseph’s, Carnacaville
• Buns coil Beanna Bóirche, Castlewellan
• Castlewellan Primary School
• All Childrens Integrated Primary school
• Cumran Primary School
• Cedar Integrated primary School
   
• Primary Links Slide Show

 Our aims are to give primary pupils a taster of learning a language. Classes are made to be fun and “hands on” and we use mime, drama and song to bring languages to life. Pupils are building up a language learning portfolio which can be found on the following website:  www.nacell.org.uk
