What people are saying about Scoil Scairte

“I loved Scoil Scairte from start to finish. An awakening and remembering of language, culture and ancestry. It awakened deep memories of soul and spirit and wisdom, and touched my heart, as well as facilitating greater use and learning of the language on a daily basis”

- Elaine (Scoil Scairte Participant)

“I've been doing Duolingo for about 5 years and I think it can only take you so far. Scoil Scairte is a deeper immersion with its guests, learning hub and Meitheal community. It has really made me determined to continue the journey.”

- Seán O'Connor (Scoil Scairte Participant)

“I am Irish, raised in England and now living in Scotland with that feeling of a missing limb, which was not satisfied by the touristy interpretation of what it means to be Irish. Scoil Scairte is much more in line with how I want to explore my Irish identity through nature, culture and experience. I was so struck by trauma, and came to reflect on my family’s experience of displacement.”
