These are not typical group tours but they are developed with the flavour of a family trip. The trips are supervised by experienced teachers and Camp Tournesol counsellors with a maximum of 1 to 7 counsellor to campers ratio. The trips are open to children from the age of 11 to 15 years old. They are built to help your child develop a sense of independence and a sense of confidence in their french language skills. This year’s trip is:

Business Feature: Fine School of Music

 
 
Fine School of Music
The Fine School of Music (FSM) operates as a for profit and non-for profit organization, that consists of a group of professional musicians within the industry, that provides music lessons both in-home and in-studio. The instruments that we provide lessons on are piano, guitar, violin and voice. It was incorporated in 2015 and became an affiliation of McMaster University's Innovation Park, with a mission to provide easy accessibility to music education in the highest degree of learning, through supplementing qualified teachers. Thus FSM connects students to teachers within a certain area. We can help supply any necessary music books if needed. At FSM we locate a teacher in the area of the student at which lessons will be conducted at the students
home or at the teachers home studio. The lesson durations are half hour, 45 minutes or 1 hour of private instruction. Our teachers will also encourage and provide opportunities
for students to perform within the community, and can work towards music examinations through the Royal Conservatory of Music. FSM focuses on it collaborations with not-for-profit organizations in order to spread music empowerment to underprivileged youth or families, providing the opportunity to experience music education towards individual fulfillment. FSM is based out of Hamilton, Ontario and offers
services in Brampton, Mississauga, Oakville, Burlington and Hamilton. FSM takes pride in advertising that all our teachers hold either an undergraduate or masters degree,
which is required in order to provide service at the level which we state to deliver. Hence, our organizations slogan, “where music learning never ends..”.
FSM is always looking to improve its ways to better serve its community, thus we offer an array of family packages, individual student packages and a free trial lesson. We hope that individuals can take advantage of our services and that the music education provided
can positively impact their lives.
