Is de bhunadh Ard Mhacha Frances, ach tá sí lonnaithe i mBéal Feirste faoi láthair. Tá suim ar leith aici i seanscéalta na hÉireann. Ar a bharr sin tá dhá chlár de scéalta idirnáisiúnta aici atá fóirsteanach don dá leibhéal bunscoilíochta. Tá scéalta agus dánta aici chomh maith atá fóirsteanach do dhaltaí mheánscoile agus do dhaoine fásta. Is féidir iad a dhéanamh go dhátheangach fosta.
