Expeditions and Trips

Expeditions of various kinds form an important part of school life both in term-time and during the school holidays. These include theatre trips, visits to places of historical, geographical, scientific or classical interest, residential leadership training weekends, ski trips and tours of art galleries.

The school aims to offer a diverse range of trips. These have included: outdoor pursuits residential trips, World Challenge Expeditions to Norway, Croatia, Malaysia and Borneo, language exchange visits with some of our partner school in Russia and Spain as well as trips to Lyon, Rome, Barcelona and Normandy. In the summer of 2010 a number of students participated in a 3 week trip to Namibia, Botswana and Zambia.

The school also has thriving Duke of Edinburgh award scheme.

At the beginning of the Summer vacation 2009, 28 girls (in 2 teams) in U5th and L6th plus 2 staff undertook an expedition to East Africa taking in Kenya and Tanzania and in 2010 an expedition to Mongolia was undertaken. These are organised by World Challenge (www.world-challenge.co.uk) and the girls spent 4 weeks trekking, sight seeing and working in the community.
