Autumn 2021 courses have now started. Please note that, in the interest of everyone's health, in-person classes will be run in accordance with St Tiernan's Adult Education Covid protocols, including maximised ventilation (wrap up warm), mandatory mask wearing, social distancing, hand sanitizing and regular cleaning of surfaces. We ask that you do not attend classes if you feel unwell or have tested positive for Covid-19 (or other communicable illness).

Welcome to St Tiernan's Community School Adult Education programme, located in the heart of South Dublin.  We run a range of evening classes, covering a wide variety of subject areas, during our Spring and Autumn terms.  Whether you want to learn a new skill, gain a qualification, take up a new hobby, keep fit or meet new people, we have a class to suit you.

Tai Chi, Bridge, Art, Stained Glass, Cookery, Pilates, Photography, Pole Fitness, Circuit Training and Spanish are among the courses on offer. Our Woodwork, Woodturning and Upholstery classes are particularly popular and there are also choir and drama/musical groups to join. Check out the Course Description page for further information.

If you run a group, organisation or sports club in Balally, Dundrum, Sandyford, Stepaside or the surrounding areas and are looking for facilities for your meetings, events or practice sessions, please check out the extensive range of facilities that we have available for hire.

We are continuously expanding and improving our programme, so new ideas and suggestions are always welcome.
