On the Wednesday afternoon there will be a fully supervised excursion, returning in the early evening for a Barbecue Supper.
On the final afternoon, Friday, we will give a short concert at 4p.m. for parents and friends.
The constitution of each instrumental group will obviously depend on the final numbers and balance of students attending the course - it is our aim to arrange singing and orchestral ensembles, windbands and chamber ensembles in such a way as to give the best possible learning experience to the students in our charge.
