Primary school trip ideas
French Language trip
Language trips are one of the best primary school trip ideas. You can introduce your KS2 pupils to a whole new culture where they can experience being surrounded by native speakers and link their learning to the real world. Especially for youngsters, it can be difficult to understand why learning a new language is valuable, but these kinds of trips can change that outlook.
Looking for a French language school trip with a bit more pizzazz? Check out our French Package and French Tailor-made programmes, which include all of your classic excursions in the French capital combined with some of our thrilling adventure activities!
Multi-activity trip
You don’t have to focus on an individual subject on your school trip. Instead, why not think about learning outcomes? It’s a fantastic way to include all the children in a certain year, by looking to develop skills like confidence, teamwork, problem solving, leadership and more. The best thing? These kinds of trips are filled with epic activities!
At PGL, your primary school students can enjoy a thrilling multi-activity school trip that encourages the development of the skills mentioned above plus many more! Their itinerary will be full of adventure activities each day, including activities such as Canoeing, High Ropes Course, Abseiling and Archery which are great activities and all included in our year 6 residential trips. We also have Primary to Secondary Transition trips that are designed to support them in their big step up to high school.
PIONEER!
For year 3 and 4, PIONEER! is a great way to introduce young adventurers to new and exciting experiences in nature, with outdoor activities and team building challenges designed to support learning outcomes, while encouraging pupils to try new things on their first trip away from home!
Bushcraft
Your pupils will love having a go at learning Bushcraft! It’s a great opportunity to get them to connect with nature and learn new skills, all while having fun with their friends. At PGL, you can take your primary school pupils on a Bushcraft adventure with our MASTER! programme.
UK explorer
If you want to bring the textbook to life, then trips are one of the best ways to immerse your pupils in the real world. You could organise excursions to some of the biggest historical landmarks in the country, engaging your pupils in the current topic of learning.
