The Minister for Education and Skills, Jan O’Sullivan TD, welcomed today’s launch of the “Ireland 2016: Centenary Programme”. In particular, she welcomed the education elements of this historically important national series of events.
Minister O’Sullivan was speaking after the official launch of “Ireland 2016: Centenary Programme” by the Taoiseach Enda Kenny TD, the Tánaiste Joan Burton TD, the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht, Heather Humphreys TD, and the Minister of State for New Communities, Culture and Equality, Aodhán Ó Ríordáin TD, at Collins Barracks, in Dublin.

“The wide-range of bilingual education activities planned for “Ireland 2016”, and the fact that many are on an all-island basis, will ensure that all learners will have the opportunity to commemorate the past, celebrate the present, and imagine the future.”
