When to tell my new job about my month away travelling?

So I've recently managed to land my first job working as bar staff, and the place opens at the end of the month after we've all had some training etc. I haven't mentioned that from mid July to mid August I'm going away to travel, and my question is: when should I tell my boss? I think it would be sensible to wait till after I'm trained at least so they're less likely to drop me, but beyond that I'm not sure. Perhaps I should get as much work and wages in as possible before I tell them, so I at least have the job for a few weeks rather than none. I'm not really sure what response to expect from them. Thanks for any help and insight!
