Summer Camps
The Irish summer camp program is really a way to bridge the large gap created by summer holidays that adds value to the learning throughout the year. We are not interested in recreating the standard lesson structure, rather to broaden the base of learning by integrating and infusing our summer programs with other disciplines and genres.
We offer a different range of classes each summer. Details of all classes are posted here with regular updates. For full information on each years program consult with the school in the early spring each year when new programs are announced.
Booking and payment for the courses will be done through the site.
String Orchestra Camps
Our String Orchestra camp is a week of intensive learning and fun. It is open to all young string players to attend and not just those registered in the school. The core membership on the program are drawn from the string Orchestra ‘Fidil’ So the standard is high and the levels achieved are wonderful each summer. Full details are published in the spring each year.

Colourstrings Camps
Running from 8th to 12th July in Shantalla NS the return of our very popular course with the school each year, suitable for young children aged approx 4 to 6. We incorporate the Colourstrings lesson in a world of games and creativity and create a unique story that develops over the week leading to a ‘Performance’ on the final day.
We explore ideas such as singing, games, and crafting simple instruments that become a part of the musical journey.
Children also get small performances presented each day on a different musical instrument and a chance to get up close with that instrument to learn how it works and to learn some of the music that goes with that instrument. This is important in helping children to learn which type of instrument they feel a more natural gravity towards as their own learning progresses.
Classes run from 10am to 2.30 daily. The cost is €25 per day or there is a special price of €100 for the week.
