The Benefits of Taking Learning Outside the Classroom
Venturing beyond classroom walls, whether it be on home soil or abroad, opens up a world of opportunities for students! Through hands-on exploration and meaningful interactions, they acquire a range of skills essential for success in today’s world!
School trips encourage critical thinking, build confidence and evoke empathy. They encourage student commitment to the subject, and see students explore new cultures, new people, new stories, new perspectives – just what we need to help us question and make sense of the world around us. Having students apply their knowledge to real-world contexts firsthand is the ultimate catalyst for engagement and understanding.
