Learning English as a second language at our school is both fun and rewarding.

Learning English in a native environment and 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. The activities at our school are designed to immerse students in all aspects of our unique Irish culture! 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

💃🕺 Taking a break from our regular student disco, we brought the students to The Lough — Cork City’s picturesque lake, beloved by locals. 🌿🦆

Here they joined a lively Irish dancing session, endorsed by none other than Michael Flatley himself! 🇮🇪✨ They learned their a haon, dó, trí (one, two, three) steps and had plenty of fun along the way.

To top it off, the students were lucky enough to meet Cork’s first citizen, the Lord Mayor — and even get a photo together. 📸👏 Big kudos to Sara for making the ask and capturing the moment!

🏆 We took a trip to Tipperary so Tommy could return to his native county and witness the celebrations of the All-Ireland hurling champions. The streets of Cashel were alive with colour — banners and bunting draped across shops and houses in pride. 🇮🇪✨

Our full-day tour included the world-famous Rock of Cashel, one of Ireland’s most ancient and iconic sites (and even a filming location for the movie Excalibur 🗡️).

Afterwards, we ventured into the picturesque Glen of Aherlow and enjoyed the Bianconi Loop Walk, soaking up stunning views of the Galtee Mountains. 🌄🚶‍♂️

🦒🐧 Our students had a fantastic day out visiting Fota Wildlife Park, home to animals from all over the world in a unique open setting. 🌍✨

The trip also included the charming seaside town of Cobh, famous as the last port of call for the Titanic 🚢 and just a short ride from Cork City on its quaint commuter train. 🚆🌊
