Karaoke Night sing and party with your favourite songs Discussion and feedback from students, teachers, and group leaders has led to the development of a 2011 programme at Atlantic Language Galway which places an increased focus and emphasis on the academic elements of our junior school syllabus. Students, teachers, and parents alike have all commented that they desire a course where students have the possibility to learn and practise as much English as possible during their time in their adopted country. In the past, it has been felt that certain courses contained a lot of activities which were not necessarily connected strongly enough to tangible English language learning. These activities were often viewed as time-fillers that took up time which could be spent on more practical and useful English language learning endeavours. In 2011, Atlantic Language aims to distinguish itself from other programmes and schools through the development of a unique summer school timetable which maximises the amount of in-class and teacher contact time where students are actually learning and practising their newly acquired language skills. By doing so, it is hoped that our school can establish itself as a premier academic junior international summer school, which places English language instruction as the most important cornerstone of our school s ethos. TOURS Our students travel on 1 Full-day Tour each Weekend. This weekly tour is included in the programme. Full day tour to Dublin Cliffs of Moher and the Burren Aran Islands Tour of Connemara Bunratty Castle and Folk Park www.atlanticlanguage.com
