Tour to France 2010

We are planning a tour to Ouistreham, Normandy in France from Monday 26th July to Friday 30th July. We would be staying at the Hotel le Chalet and giving at least three concerts in France. There will be a full day's rehearsal prior to departure on the Sunday 25th July. If sufficient numbers of students apply for the tour, the tour may be extended by one day.

This tour offers an excellent opportunity for musical development. The cost, which includes half board accommodation, personal insurance (not including your instrument) and coach travel will be £400. The cost of this tour can, of course, be spread over a number of payments. The tour includes entrance to a number of historic sites including the DDay Museum in Arromanches,the 360 degrees Museum in Arromanches and the Bayeux Tapestry Museum.
