Excursions
Excursions are an important and compulsory part of the programme and enable students to visit London and other places of cultural and historical interest, go to the seaside as well as provide an opportunity for recreational activities and shopping.
Following a busy week at school, weekend excursions allow students to enjoy their new friendships in a more informal, genuine and relaxed setting.
