We are sorry that the travel restrictions caused by the pandemic have made it too difficult for students to attend this year's course. Alexis Droy has suggested keeping the same programme for next year when we hope travel will have returned to normal. Dates to be announced, but we expect it will be a similar period towards the end of August.


If you would like to be kept informed of dates please join our email list.
