SPORTING and musical fun were just a few of the family-friendly activities enjoyed by all ages as Nairn celebrated World Gaelic Week.

The celebrations began at the Nairn Community and Arts Center with a Junior Fèis Day of music, sports, arts and culture. Activities included a series of workshops during the day before a family ceilidh in the evening.
