They’re on a mission to learn the art of living off the land, and they’re not afraid to get their hands dirty.

Hold on to your adventure hats! The dynamic duo Paddy and Shay, their fearless cousin Meabh, and their mum Grainne are about to embark on an epic journey to a wild and windswept island off the rugged West coast of Ireland.

It’s here that Tom Ban, the maestro of the wilderness, welcomes our Armagh Bush Kids to a world where survival is the name of the game.

Get ready for thrills as these young explorers scour the dramatic coastline for hidden culinary treasures of the sea, ready to be seared on an open flame.

Watch them conjure up mouth-watering meals from the ocean’s bounty, with nothing but the crackle of fire and the salt in the air to accompany their feast.

And the adventure doesn’t stop there! Our Bush Kids will be the masters of their domain as they craft the cosiest, most robust shelters you’ve ever seen, strong enough to withstand the wildest of Atlantic storms.

Join the fun as they pit their wits against the elements, turning a barren island into a home away from home.
