FAQ's - Frequently Asked Questions
Is there an age
requirement in order to participate?
Scoil Acla caters for both
young and old. All activities will have a mixed class of
children and adults, depending on ability levels. (Yes,
beginning adults are welcome!) For the music classes, the
minimum age is usually around seven. Students would need
to have a genuine interest in the activity. If you require
further clarification,
Can I participate
in more than one class/activity?
Depending on the time schedule
for the classes, you are welcome to participate in more
than one. For example, many students choose to take music
classes in the morning and then singing or dancing in the
afternoon. The writer’s workshop is an all-day class.
Do I need to have
my own instrument?
It would be best to provide
your own instrument. On rare occasions, we may be able to
source an instrument but there is no guarantee.
Where do the classes
take place?
Classes take place in various
venues throughout the island.
Can I pre-register
for the summer school?
Yes. You may print
off an application form from the web site and send your
registration fee to Scoil Acla, Cashel, Achill, County Mayo.
How do I secure
accommodation for the week?
There are several
hotels, guesthouses, B & Bs, and self-catering accommodations.
In addition, there are caravan parks with camping facilities
and hostels on the island. For further information, please
consult the Achill
Tourism website.
