WESTPORT Scoil Cheoil has garnered a reputation as one of Ireland’s best-known Summer Schools. Formal classes run each day for five days in July, this year from July 15 to 19, from 10am until 1pm in Scoil Phádraig in Westport. Each evening there are sessions/concerts for the participants. The fantastic tutor concert, sponsored by Knockranny House Hotel, is a highlight of the week. All participants host their own concert for parents and families on the last morning showcasing the skills they have learnt over the week.
Each evening there are sessions which cater for beginners through to advanced players. Scoil Cheoil is most certainly not exclusively for the experts or solely for children, indeed many adults come along with their children. The Department of Education recognises this school as CPD for primary school teachers awarding them EPV days, so this is an ideal family event. For young and old, beginners or experts, Westport Scoil Cheoil is the place to be from July 15 to 19. The website
www.westportscoilcheoil.com contains all the relevant details.
