We Love the Chateau du Molay!

School trips to the Chateau du Molay in France!

Travelbound's very own French chateau is set in 38 acres of private parkland near the beautiful village of Molay Littry in Normandy. As the chateau is 14kms from Bayeux and 15kms from the coast and D-Day landing beaches it makes an excellent base for school trips and educational tours.

School trips in NormandyChateau Activities & Excursions 

All our staff are highly trained in school trip management and we have a professional British entertainments team, complete with a resident 'animateur', to ensure a wide variety of organised fun and games are available to your school group. Thanks to the chateau's proximity to the coast the museums, monuments and beaches of Normandy are within easy reach. 

  

Twinning Programme

Chateau Twinning ProgrammeThis is a wonderful initiative that encourages UK schools to link up with their Continental equivalents. Our very own Chateau du Molay hosts over 50 French groups each summer and we can organise a twinning programme that will enable your pupils to get in-touch prior to meeting at the Chateau.

Twinning is a great way for pupils to learn more about the language and culture of France before, during and after their visit to the Chateau du Molay. Getting to know a French school is also useful for future projects including pen pals, exchange visits and on-line interaction. 

If you would like to know more about how we can link your school with a French counterpart, that is visiting the Chateau du Molay at the same time as your proposed trip, then please contact the team on: 01273 265 265 or alternatively e-mail info@travelbound.co.uk
