Planned v Relevant v Safe The learning
In addition to day visits to
places of interest, the theatre and museums, the school has the use of an
activity centre in the Auvergne region of France. Pupils in Years 6, 8 and Other trips out of school include the
annual History Society visit to Europe, geography field visits, music tours
and skiing expeditions.

experience
for pupils does not end for pupils at New Eccles Hall at the school gate. The
school actively encourages school visits and trips and supports staff in
organising them. Careful planning with risk assessments
ensures that pu
pils
are able to make these excursions safely and confidently.
Extending the learning experience outside the classroom on field work visits
brings the subjects they are learning to life.
10 visit the centre to enjoy visits to places of interest and
take
part in programmes linked to the curriculum at school. For some pupils,
going away on a school trip is the first time they have been away from home.
The staff are sensitive to this. However, it is a wonderful opportunity to
broaden horizons and enhance the learning experience.
