'Other than getting married, our Club Europe tour is the best thing I’ve ever done in my life!'

This is one of our more extraordinary music leader comments. But then Darren Roberts, a music teacher from Mount Bay Academy in Cornwall had an extraordinary experience with his bands on tour in Wallonia in Belgium. Take a look at these great pictures and have a read of what else he had to say about his school music trip.

"Our beach club concert was probably the best gig we had ever done and our young people still constantly talk about that night. The whole show was a highlight but the last song Eggshells starting up while the sunset streamed in the window was pure magic.

"I would walk to The Hague from here to get the chance to live that show again. It was exactly why we did the tour in the first place."

  • Performing outdoor one of the highlights of their school music tour

"I can’t speak highly enough of Josh, our tour manager. He learned everyone’s names in about ten minutes and from that point on was just one of the gang. The whole process was made enjoyable for me because Josh carried all the stress. I’ve never met anyone like him and we’ve become firm friends."

"Everyone I dealt with at Club Europe was amazing. Other than getting married, our Club Europe tour is the best thing I’ve ever done in my life.

"It was huge as a learning experience for our students, truly life changing for the young people and the staff.  It’s made the group we took into an unbreakable family and has had the most profound effect on the confidence of every single one of them."
