Creating unforgettable experiences
School trips are powerful and positive experiences for children of all ages. Most of us as adults can still remember the excitement of getting on a bus and heading out on an educational adventure with our friends.
These hands-on learning experiences, often in a new and exciting environment, not only bring academic learning to life but also add real value developmentally. Staff and pupils return with new understanding, shared experiences, and exciting stories to recount.
trips provide opportunities to lead and have a hugely positive impact on a child’s resilience, self-confidence and wellbeing.
Residential trips
We are proud that our staff want to offer children the experience of a residential trip. Research shows that these trips provide opportunities to lead and have a hugely positive impact on your child’s:
- ability to foster deeper relationships
- resilience, self-confidence and wellbeing
- engagement with learning
- cohesion and sense of belonging
Your child’s recollections of residential trips will doubtless be amongst the highlights of their time at RGS The Grange. Tales are invariably passed down the year groups, growing exponentially with each telling.
“IT’S A FEELING OF GROWTH. THAT TINGLE OF BELIEF THAT SOMETHING ONCE IMPOSSIBLE CAN NOW BE DONE.”
