Are you thinking about taking your music ensemble on tour but worried about the cost?

Our short and sweet school music trip to Flanders may be the answer.

One of our schools from Essex took their chamber orchestra and choir on a fantastic three-day school music tour to this fascinating region of Belgium last week.

As well as performing in one of the retirement homes there, there was time for the group to visit a chocolaterie, enjoy a bowling evening and explore Bruges and Ostend.

Here’s what their music teacher, Olivia had to say of their experience:

“I was impressed with Club Europe accommodating the needs of pupils, as well as the small budget and funds that we had.

“Also, their knowledge of the area that we were travelling in. Hannah was always on hand to give advice and help. It was useful to have someone who knew our plans and itinerary so well. Isabel was really helpful also, willing to discuss matters over the phone which is often quicker and easier. She was able to really support me in the build up to our first tour. We had so much fun!

“The hostel was good, rooms were perfect for what we needed and we were able to use a room on the first evening for our free time. Location was perfect – close to the beach and other sights. No journeys were too far whilst we were there.

“The students really liked our tour manager Justine and she got on very well with the staff and coach drivers. Her knowledge of the area and our itinerary meant that the tour went very smoothly and was very successful!”
