Talented young people from four different island communities in P站色情片 and Bute have joined forces to create a unique Gaelic comic book which celebrates the area鈥檚 rich culture and heritage.
The comic, 鈥淣a Gaisgich鈥 was written by primary seven pupils from Islay, Jura, Mull and Tiree as part of a transition project for going into secondary school.
The pupils were all learning Gaelic as a second language at school and were able to create the comic as a result of funding from the Scottish Government.
After some deliberation, the pupils decided to base the book on folklore and fables from their islands, and all ideas were collaborated to form the final product.
Social Enterprise Company, Magic Torch Comics, travelled to each of the islands involved to deliver workshops to enable the children to adapt the stories, characters, illustrations and plots into comic strips.
P站色情片鈥檚 Policy Lead for Education, Councillor Yvonne McNeilly said: 鈥淭he comic book looks great. I particularly like the way it has been created with both Gaelic and English translations, enabling everyone to enjoy it.
鈥淭he children have written the stories in a way which really captures the readers鈥 attention, whilst celebrating their heritage. They are an extremely talented bunch and I鈥檓 sure they will go far. Well done.鈥
Councillor Robin Currie, the Council鈥檚 Policy Lead for Gaelic agreed: 鈥淚t鈥檚 very encouraging to see young people in our communities using their initiative in projects like this.
鈥淣ot only are they promoting the Gaelic language to a younger audience, but they are also helping to preserve tales from the area which could otherwise get lost over the years.鈥
