The Magic of School Trips

School trips are a break from the usual school day. It’s a chance to escape the confines of the classroom and take learning opportunities on the road. They offer an opportunity to interact with classmates and teachers in a slightly more relaxed manner than the normal school environment.


Field trips are an enjoyable and fun treat for students. However, they also offer unparallel learning opportunities to the children. They connect students to the real world as they offer non-experimental research outside their everyday activities. They are an educational experience that the children can never have in the classroom.

School excursions are also an important and effective means of motivating the students and encouraging them in active learning. The children build closer bonds with their classmates and enjoy a day away from the classroom.
Our school too encourages such trips. The Pre -Primary section went to visit places in the neighbourhood. This helped students to interact with what they were learning in the class. The experience went beyond reading about the neighbourhood as the students were able to manipulate it and physically participate in it.

While field trips take a great deal of work and energy, broadening the horizons of the students is worth it as learning and fun makes a great combination.
