Summer Program

Our Summer Programme is designed for teenagers who want to combine learning with an enjoyable and active Irish experience. Students take part in fun, supervised morning activities and camps, followed by structured English language lessons organised close to their activity locations in the afternoon.

This balanced approach allows students to stay engaged, build confidence in their English skills, and enjoy a safe, well-organised summer while experiencing Irish culture and daily life.

Activities / Camp Overview

Our summer activities & camps are designed to keep teenagers active, engaged, and having fun throughout their stay. Students can take part in a variety of sports and activities each week, including traditional Gaelic games and skill development at camps inspired by Ireland’s popular GAA Cúl Camps — where participants enjoy game-based coaching in Gaelic football, hurling and camogie, team building, and social fun in a supportive environment.

Alongside Gaelic sports, our programmes include soccer camps, arts & crafts, horse riding and much more, giving young people an opportunity to try new skills, make friends, and experience the best of Irish outdoor summer life while improving confidence and staying active.
