Programmes for Schools

In our new Comhaltas Comhaltas Association, gathering, brotherhood（https://comhaltas.ie/glossary#20668） Prospectus 2030, we’re introducing three traditional Irish arts packages tailored for schools. They will focus on Early Learning, Primary, and Post Primary programmes. These programmes will seamlessly integrate with Comhaltas Branch Classes, fostering musical growth through performances, practical examinations, teacher training, and competitions.

Pre-School Programme 2030

This Comhaltas initiative currently being developed, is an innovative programme for toddlers. It will cover weekly activities, introducing children to performing, listening and responding. These strands are the foundation of primary school curriculum. Toddlers have a great base of music education before they enter in primary education. These early musical concepts, are fun and child-centred.

Trad is Fab

Based on a learning pack that includes a DVD, classroom posters, a teacher’s workbook and class worksheets, ‘Trad is Fab’ introduces children to Irish traditional music in a fun and accessible way.

‘Trad is Fab’ has been delivered in primary schools all across Ireland, seeing many participants take up playing an instrument and continuing their education right through to the SCT syllabus.

The Trad is Fab project was focused on the listening and responding strand of the primary school curriculum. This programme currently being developed also provides activities with regards to Performing and Composing.
