School of Irish Archaeology The School of Irish Archaeology focuses on educating our younger generations in primary and secondary schools.

The aim of the school is to help the students appreciate how archaeology's role in todays society can help teach the meaning behind our culture, identity and heritage on the Island of Ireland. We also hope to promote respect and tolerance for cultural diversity within Ireland to our younger generations.

📜 We’re proud to have so many positive reviews from parents!

“I just wanted to send a quick note to let you know how much my daughter and her two friends enjoyed the camp at Harold’s Cross. I was a bit worried as they are at the upper range of the age group — they’re 11 — but they came home absolutely buzzing with excitement, telling me all about their day and what was planned for the rest of the week. I haven’t seen my daughter that happy to go to an event ever!
Thanks again for everything!” — Sarah M 🏺
