Tempo Music School

Music

Tempo Music School, based at the Arts and Business Campus on Lower Drumcondra Road, runs parent-and-child music appreciation classes for young children. Baby Beats is aimed at 9 months to 3 years, while Mini Beats takes children from 4 to 6 years old through a wider range of instruments, songs and compositions. Each class follows a consistent structure - a Welcome Song, Nursery Rhymes for listening and language, Sound Exploration with percussion instruments, Action Songs for movement, and a Goodbye Song to close - giving children a predictable rhythm to the session. Beyond the fun, the classes build sensory-motor skills, coordination, rhythm and early speaking, while introducing strings, percussion and wind instruments as groundwork for future instrumental lessons.

Child Vision

Horse Riding

ChildVision, based on Grace Park Road in Drumcondra, is Ireland's only facility solely dedicated to the education and therapy needs of blind and multi-disabled children. Its equine therapy programme uses horsemanship to support children and adults with physical, sensory, mental health and intellectual disabilities, helping build confidence, coordination and general wellbeing. Sessions last either 30 minutes or an hour and run in group blocks, with places allocated following an assessment by ChildVision's occupational therapist. Horse riding here is primarily a therapeutic service rather than a general lesson programme, so only a limited number of places are open to the public — families interested should get in touch to check current availability and the assessment process.
