Do you wish to have an opportunity to combine an English
course with a holiday in Ireland together with your child or
children? We can offer a specially arranged course for you and
your child (ren) . Parents will be in one class and your children in
another. However, you will be in the same building, so you can 'keep an
eye' on your children. This course will allow you to help your
child(ren)'s learning of English while enabling you to develop your own
language skills. If parents wish to bring small babies we can
organise a baby-sitting service. Also Crèche facilities are also
available locally and can be arranged easily.
Children's courses can be divied into two groups
Age 4-6
Age 7-9
Age 10-11
Older ages can join the teenage programme
Children's courses.
We offer 2 programmes.
GE1 15 hours per week tuition in the mornings. We
concentrate on encouraging communication. The focus of the course, as
you can imagine, is different from teen and adults. There is more focus
on communication and creativity (drawings songs play etc.).
GE3 15 hours per week tuition in the
mornings. Plus afternoon activities. Activities are more suitable
for children. Normally parents can accompany if they wish but the
activities themselves may not suit parents.
The
fees are the
same as for adults
We can provide a
host family where
we would find a family with a large house and children of similar ages.
We will try and find a family with children at corresponding ages.
Therefore, they will have friends when they arrive this will decrease
homesickness and make the transition easier. We encourage the Irish
children to introduce their European guests to their friends as this
increases exposure to English. You will have excellent full board
accommodation with single room, breakfast, packed lunch and evening
meals 7 days per week. All families live near the school and have been
carefully selected. All homes are modern and comfortable. We have built
great relationships with the families and they will do everything to
make your stay more comfortable. You will experience the warmth and
friendliness of an Irish home. The price is €200 per week More details
are available

We can organise
self catering apartments, houses and
holiday homes.
