Trips and Visits

We believe that being able to offer a wide variety of trips ,visits and experiences for all students is an important part of their whole education during their time with us. Whether for curriculum enhancement such as theatre visits and sporting events or trips further afield, these add the extra dimension.  

A number of the trips take place during Activities Week in July each year.. There is also the opportunity for students to participate in all levels of the Duke of Edinburgh's Award Scheme in different locations across the country.
