Parent Testimonials

"My 11 year old daughter thrived during her three weeks at Coláiste Aodáin.  She settled in very quickly, loved the accomodation and activities and came home much more relaxed about communicating in Irish"

Amanda Pedlow, Mullingar

"My 16 year old daughter will be returning to Coláiste Aodáin for the fourth time this summer.  The fact that she has returned each year without fail is testimony in itself, for not only has her spoken Irish improved but she has acquired essential life skills and made friends from all over Ireland" 

M. Frew, Dublin

"I just wanted to write and tell you that my son Sean Sourke went on cursai B this year to the Colaiste and he had another brilliant time.  Having went last year I did not think he would have as good a time as last year but he really enjoyed it again this year and in fact is a bit lonely since coming back and looking forward to the reunion of all the gang in August.  He got on really well in the house he stayed in (Teach Loistin; Una Ni Fhlatharta) and Una seems to have really looked after them and had some good fun with the boys.  At this stage I would like to point out to you that my niece went to a different Colaiste at the same time and did not have a good experience in the house she stayed in at all and as a result did not enjoy her Gaeltacht experience at all.  The Teach the kids stay in plays a big part of the whole experience and our experience over the 2 years has being very good so well done to Una and to Kathleen for last year."
 
"Thank you very much for the good organisation that goes with the Colaiste and to all your staff who make the trip a trip of a lifetime for the boys.
 
Hopefully Sean will be returning next year with his guitar on back for another good experience."
 
Go raibh mile agat.
 
Regards
 
M. Sourke, Kildare
