Airson cùisean a thòiseachadh tha buidheann de dheugairean Chanèidianaich a' cur seachad seachdain ann an Leòdhas, a' sireadh an sinnsearan agus a' cur gleans air a' Ghàidhlig aca. Ged a tha an cuan eatorra , a bheil òigridh Chanada agus òigiridh Leòdhais cho eadar-dhealaichte sin san lath' a th'ann ge-tà? Saoil dè a shaoileas muinntir Eilean a' Phrionnsa de dh' Eilean an Fhraoich?

A' luaidh a' chlò, a' leum far dhrochaidean, ag ithe biadh annasach, a h-uile ceum air an t-slighe tro shùilean na cloinne fhèin.

Take the journey of a lifetime from the mystical Hebridean shores of the Isle of Lewis, over the Atlantic to the historical heart of Canada - Prince Edward Island. In this action-packed hour we find out what happens when a group of Gaelic exchange students head out to meet their Canadian counterparts, as they each experience student life, leisure & family as a Canadian.

To kick the exchange off the Canadians spend a week on Lewis tracing their lineage and brushing up on their Gaelic. Despite being separated by the mighty Atlantic, these two groups of students might have a lot in common. What will the natives of Prince Edward Island make of the Heather Isle?

Tweed waulking, bridge jumping, exploring new delicacies, every step of the way through the eyes of the children.
