This colourful resource is one of a series of resources that cover Key Stage 3 Irish. This book covers Year 10. It follows a methodical style where theory is supported by reading, writing, speaking and listening exercises. The book makes use of specially-commissioned audio recordings which are available to download free of charge via this link – https://colourpointeducational.com/media/content/IrishInCloseUpYear10Audio.zip

The book was edited, and the language put through a quality assurance process, by Seán McNally, who will be well-known to those in the sector. The author Celia Gormley was, until her recent retirement, Head of Irish at Cross and Passion College, Ballycastle.

The project has been supported by Foras na Gaeilge.
