Learn English as a second language in a native environment
Cultural immersion in an English speaking country is the most effective way to improve one’s English. All of our programmes require that students live with host families where English is the mother tongue. In many cases, other students of a different nationality will stay in the same host family.
Take the time to explore the site which showcases the activities that take place at our school. School activities are organised so that students have a unique experience in the pillars of Irish culture, namely:
- Education
- History and Heritage
- Landscape
- Irish sports
- Irish Music and Dance
- Irish Language
- Irish Literature
