High School in Ireland
High School in Ireland
Céad Mile Fáilte! Or as the old traditional greeting phrase reads in a language you might understand better: a hundred thousand welcomes! In Ireland you will surely be exposed to a lot of Gaeilge (sometimes slightly incorrectly referred to as as Gaelic or Irish), but English is the main language on this green island. And that is one of the reasons to why high school in Ireland is a great alternative to studies in England. You get the language, but with a twist.
High School in Ireland is divided into two parts: Junior Cycle and Senior Cycle. The first year in senior cycle is known as ”transition year”, and students study a mixture of theoretical and practical subjects to then choose
their direction for future years. Irish schools are of a high standard, students wear a uniform and call their teachers “Mr”, “Mrs” or “Miss”
High School Classic
High School Classic is the traditional high school exchange programme, chosen by most of our students. It is the perfect programme for those who long for a genuine high school experience abroad and who are willing to embrace all the surprises it can bring. Here’s how it works: based on your profile, we find you a suitable host family and school, and the best part is, it can be anywhere in Ireland, from the country’s famously beautiful countryside to its equally interesting and exciting cities! If you’re open to adventure and are willing to let yourself be surprised by your exchange experience, this is the programme for you.
Proud traditions
The Irish love their traditions; paint yourself green on
St Patrick’s Day and try new sports like Gaelic Football or Hurling. With its long coastline and wide open countryside, Ireland is made for an active outdoor lifestyle.
Don’t forget Irish folk music too!
Host Family
Family is important to the Irish and life revolves around the close-knit household. As a new family member you will be introduced to the Irish culture and the typical traditions of your particular family. When you gather around the dinner table to talk about your day, you will hear new words and expressions, which will sharpen your grip of the language.
North, south, farm or city
What your new home will look like depends on where you are placed. To live with a family in the north is naturally quite different from life in the south. Living on a farm in the country is something different than an apartment in a city. It’s good to know that many Irish families have pets, they sure love their four-legged friends. If you have any allergies, please let us know.
Free Time
Free time in Ireland
Your leisure time in Ireland will be rich and varied – and it’s up to you what you want to do. Your options are nearly endless. For instance, if you like shopping you will think you are dreaming. The department stores and smaller boutiques are full of the latest fashion. Your wardrobe will become full of unique garments.
Cozy cafés
Did you know that the word café is French? This is a word that will become pretty standard in your vocabulary, since visiting cafés with friends will be something you will do a lot. Hanging out in cafés is typically Irish. Order a café au lait and just sit and talk for hours. Can you think of a better way to practice your English?
If you like the outdoors you will love your time in our area of Ireland.
With 2 of the top 5 beaches in Ireland according to the Lonely planet (Inch strand & Banna beach) and our other beaches such as Ballybunion, Ballyheigue & the Maherees are not bad either to swim, surf or just to walk.
