The Irish Club invites all members and their families to the Irish Club family BBQ at Kockelscheuer on Sunday 29 August 2010 @ 1.00 pm.

If you wish to come along please bring your food to be cooked and refreshments. The Irish club will provide the fire for you to cook your food.

This promises to be a good day out for all the family and you will get to meet other club members and get to know the rest of the Irish community in Luxembourg.

The Irish Club of Luxembourg charity sponsored walk is in aid of the Children's Medical and Research Foundation of Our Lady's Children's Hospital, Crumlin and will take place on Sunday 26 September 2010 starting at 2.30 pm (14h30).

We will begin the walk at the church in Bech-Kleinmacher at 2.30 pm and follow a route that is about 5.9 kilometres finishing back in Bech-Kleinmacher.

The route of the walk is through the vines behind Bech-Kleinmacher and will take even the slowest walkers (admiring the views) about 2 hours to complete.

At the end of the walk we will be having well deserved refreshments and possible a light meal in Waistuff A Possen in rue Aloyse Sandt, Bech-Kleinmacher.

From Celtic Dawn to Celtic Tiger

The Irish Language Club of Luxembourg proudly presents The Willibrord Lecture 2011

entitled

From Celtic Dawn to Celtic Tiger

by Professor Diarmaid Ferriter of University College Dublin

on Thursday March 3rd 2011 at 20:00

in the Salles des Fêtes of the European School.

The Irish teachers of the European School have organised a public lecture by Professor Dr Diarmaid Ferriter, Chair of Modern History at University College, Dublin.

Professor Ferriter was born in Dublin in 1972. He attended University College, Dublin from which he obtained his B.A. (1991) and PhD (1996). He lectured in Modern Irish History at U.C.D. from 1996-1998 and subsequently served as both researcher and writer with the Dictionary of Irish Biography from 1998-1999. He was senior lecturer in Irish History at St Patrick's College D.C.U. from 1999-2008. Professor Ferriter was appointed Chair of Modern Irish History at University College, Dublin, in 2008. His main interests include social, political and cultural history of twentieth century Ireland. Professor Ferriter lives in Dublin.

In his lecture "From Celtic Dawn to Celtic Tiger", Professor Ferriter will offer a general overview of the key political, social and economic developments in Ireland between 1900 and 2000. Professor Ferriter is a remarkably talented speaker and a formost authority on modern Irish history. He has published widely and to international critical acclaim on this subject and has lectured on Irish history in many countries. It is undoubtedly a great coup for the European School and for the Irish community of Luxembourg that he has agreed to deliver the 2011 Saint Willibrord Lecture at the European School.

Entry is €10 per person.
