I recently moved to Melbourne and was looking for a way to connect to other Irish people and practise my cúpla focail (couple of words). Everyone was incredibly friendly and I felt it was a lovely atmosphere for learning Irish and celebrating our culture. Steph is a fantastic facilitator, providing worksheets to help us all get to know each other and improve our Irish speaking skills.

The Irish language socials are super fun and engaging. From worksheets to games, Steph provides the opportunity to learn new phrases and helpful vocabulary. Everyone there has a broad range of abilities, making it perfect for complete beginners, fluent speakers, and everyone in between to have a bit of comhra (conversation) and craic (fun).

I felt so at home, surrounded by friendly people who I could bond with instantly due to our connections to the Emerald Isle. The event was so well organised. So as well as learning some Irish words I also met some wonderful people and enjoyed myself so much.
