Our classes are held on Tuesday & Wednesday nights during the Victorian school term (except public holidays), starting at 7:30 pm and finishing between 8:30 & 9 pm, depending on the class.

In 2023, Tuesday Beginners and Intermediate classes will return to the Kathleen Syme Library in Carlton, but the Advanced class remains on Zoom.  Wednesday (Zoom) classes are primarily for people who live outside Melbourne or have trouble getting to a class and they remain on Zoom.

You’re welcome to try a class before committing, but get in touch first.  All continuing students are expected to become members of the Cumann ($45 per year).  In addition, we offer our teachers an honorarium for their hard work and to help finance that and room bookings we charge students $40 per term.  This is roughly equivalent to the money that was collected at physical classes at the Celtic Club.

Terms

We follow school terms, but finish a bit earlier in December.  Two public holidays fall on Tuesdays this year, so there will be no class on 25 April (ANZAC Day) or 7 November (Melbourne Cup Day) as the library is not available.

Term 1:	31 January – 4 April
Term 2:	2 May – 20 June
Term 3:	11 July – 12 September
Term 4:	3 October – 5 December (12 December — Christmas party)

Textbooks

Books are sold at cost price, which at our last purchase was $50 for Gaeilge gan Stró Beginners Level and $65 for Lower Intermediate Level.

Zoom

Although you can join a Zoom meeting using only a web browser, it is recommended that you get the Zoom app (Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iOS). If you can manage it, headphones with a microphone will make it much easier to hear and be heard. Classes starts at the same time (7:30 pm), but run for about an hour and a quarter.

Payments

Payments to us can be made by bank transfer…

or via PayPal. Remember to include a note saying what the payment is for and your name.
