Accommodation

Host family
Staying with a host family is an unforgettable experience, as it will allow you to share the daily life of an Irish family and to discover their daily habits. In order to get to the school, you will take the bus and will need to allow for around 30 minutes' journey time. Full board (breakfast, packed lunch and evening meal) is provided. Students stay in a double or triple room, with students of another mother tongue. Sharing a bedroom with a brother, sister or friend is also possible on request.
Please note: this type of accommodation is best suited to independent students who will be able to get to the school on their own using public transport.

Residence
The young students can stay in a modern and comfortable residential complex. Located around 20 minutes away walk from the school building, it contains apartments in which up to 7 students can stay in double or single bedrooms. The rooms and bathrooms are cleaned on a regular basis. This accommodation option includes full board. All of the meals are served in the school canteen, except on excursion days when packed lunches are provided. The camp leaders stay on-site and ensure the security of students on a 24-hour basis.

Leisure

Four evenings a week, the school activities coordinators organise and supervise group activities. There will be sports activities of course (swimming, tennis, badminton, basketball or volleyball) but also cultural workshops (Irish dancing and music), a treasure hunt in the city, and you will also discover typical Irish sports like hurling or gaelic football. You will even have the opportunity to attend a greyhound race! Disco parties, cinema evenings, talent show, karaoke evening... these convivial activities organised by the school are perfect for enjoying yourself and practising English with your new friends! And your weekends will be busy too! Every week, one full-day excursion is organised : Dublin, the Cliffs of Moher, Connemara or Bunratty Castle for example. Finally, one afternoon a week and Sundays are free : you can take advantage of these moments to spend time with your new friends – unless you prefer to revise your English classes! You will also be able to take part in an optional activity on Sundays (as a supplement, at a preferential price).
