Priestlands School
Educational Visits
Extra-Curricular Visits
Residential trips are regularly offered by staff who give up their own time voluntarily to run these trips for the benefit of students. The types of trips offered will therefore depend on what staff are willing to arrange. Students will be told and a letter will be issued to parents to 'launch' the trip, providing you with further information of the itinerary and costs involved. Because these trips are not a required part of the curriculum, the school is unable to offer any financial support towards the cost.
Overseas trips this year have included:
New York (Drama), Berlin & Krakow (History & RE), Activities Week in the Dolomites, Italy (Languages), World War 1 Battlefields in Belgium & France (History)
Curricular Educational Visits
These take place during the school day and are a required part of the study of particular subjects, e.g. Drama, Geography, History etc. A letter will be issued in advance of any trip providing you with further information and whether a voluntary financial contribution is requested to help meet the costs of the trip.
