Wales is a country which forms a part of the union of countries known as the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Wales is to the west of England, with the capital city, Cardiff, about 2 hours from the capital of England, London. Wales is a little bigger than Kuwait, about the same size as Slovenia and about half the size of Switzerland. The country is famous for its countryside with national parks, mountains, beaches, hills, valleys and forests. It has over 500 castles, local and national festivals that celebrate music, food, drink, art and literature. Studying English in Wales means you can see a different side of the UK. About 170,000 students study here every year, from over 150 different countries. So why not learn about two different countries at the same time? Come and visit us in beautiful Wales so we can say Croeso (Welcome!) to you.

Blackrock Athletic Club

Blackrock,

Blackrock Athletic Club was founded in 1944. From a small beginning during World War 2 it has developed into the biggest athletic club in the country. The club evolved from a volunteer military unit and started out with around 20 members, many of whom first came into contact with athletics through inter-service (army) competition. Joe Hodgins brought the first national title in 1950 and since then it has grown from strength. In the initial stages, it catered for men only. The main reason for the exclusion of women from athletics stemmed from the church’s opposition to them participating in a sport that demanded physical exertion. It was to take a further 25 years before there was a change in attitude in this respect, which allowed for the introduction of athletic competition for women. The club has benefitted immensely from this development. A few efforts were made to get juvenile athletics of the ground before the current junior section was established in 1980. It has continued to grow and expand and today there is a queue up of young children waiting to get in. A Fit4Life section was introduced to the club in 2013. This development allows runners and joggers to enjoy all the benefits of running in a social, safe and organised environment. The club has come a long way in that it can now cater for everyone, irrespective of their ability, that wants to run. The club’s training grounds is at the picturesque Carysfort Park, Blackrock where it has been in situ since 1994.
