An education with a Gaelic perspective

Provide your child with the opportunity to develop a deeper and fuller understanding of this place and the words, melodies and movements that fill it with so much unique joy and beauty

We need your help in making this dream a reality.

Taigh Sgoile na Drochaide is powered by the volunteer efforts of Gaelic community members and parents working hard to make sure our kids have the opportunity to learn and play in their own language. Please consider supporting these efforts by donating to our Education Fund.

We are partnered with the Charitable Foundation of Nova Scotia to provide security and charitable tax receipts for your generous contribution.

A unique approach to learning

Play based Learning

Inspired by the Montessori Method

Gaelic in language and outlook

 

Our school takes an innovative approach to education, informed by the Montessori Method encouraging children to follow their curiosity and explore the things that interest them. Our curriculum is also informed by a Gaelic worldview, rooted in intergenerational teaching and learning, reverence towards our elders, multi-cultural understanding, exploration and independence.

 

A bilingual learning environment is proven to set children on a path to high academic achievement. Learning in Gaelic provides these academic advantages and more.
