Student Life
Going out in Ballyvaughan
Clare is the home of traditional Irish music and most social activities
in the area revolve around music or the outdoors. Music sessions
are held weekly in the village and the College maintains a diary
of local social and cultural events that students may wish to attend.
Hill-walking, rock-climbing, horse-riding, swimming and surfing
are all available locally, with some of the finest beaches in Clare
located close to the College. The VEC Outdoor Pursuit Centre in nearby
Carron offers courses in rock climbing, orienteering, pot holing
and canoeing. The College is located on the Burren Way, the main
walking route in north clare and walking tours are available locally.
