LEARN THE BODHRAN

HELP THE SHEEPDOGS

Action packed, hands-on programme on a busy working farm. Come and gather the sheep, feed the pigs and visit the bog…

We’ll teach you a dance and have a session on the bodhráns and everyone can make their own soda bread.

This is genuinely a superb way for groups to immerse themselves in Irish culture. Everyone says it is a highlight of their time in Ireland.

The programme includes:

Programme A: Visit Within the School Day

Meet the Farm Animals

Cattle, hens, geese, pigs, Connemara ponies, goats and donkeys.

Bodhrán Session

Each student plays a traditional bodhrán and learns to accompany the different rhythms of traditional Irish music including jigs, polkas and reels.

Make Soda Bread

Everyone makes their own brown bread and we eat it later with butter and jam and drinks.

Bog Jumping

A Causey favourite, everyone just loves the feel of the bog between the toes and creates some of the best memories ever
