What will students see and do?
Halsbury Travel is a private school travel company that specialises in school trips. It provides educational trips alongside ski trips, sports tours and music tours.
This travel company was founded by teachers, for teachers. This means that the team knows exactly what it takes to deliver successful school trips. Teachers are able to work closely with Halsbury Travel to craft the school trip that’s right for their pupils. This could be one of the website’s popular choices or something totally different.
Each trip has a bespoke itinerary and can last for one day or for several. Trips focus on different subjects like history, geography, languages and more.
Taking educational trips, particularly trips abroad, can be a life-changing experience for students. These overseas residentials can be a golden opportunity for pupils to learn whilst also building social skills.
How does the trip link to the curriculum?
With Halsbury Travel you can choose a destination that suits the subject you’d like to focus on.
Language trips can focus on French, German, Italian, Mandarin, Russian or Spanish, or you can centre your trip around a different subject such as art, business studies, English literature, food technology, geography, history, maths, media studies, politics, RE or science.
Language-focused trips are the perfect way to immerse students in the culture they are studying and gives pupils opportunity to put their skills into practice by conversing with native speakers.
On a geography school trip pupils will experience their subject in action. Study geology and plate tectonics in Iceland, ecosystems and biodiversity in Naples or glaciers and river processes in the Swiss Alps.
If you want to bring history to life, opt for a tailor-made history programme. Learn about the Nazis and the Holocaust in Berlin or visit Russia to learn about the revolution.
International travel also allows students to build on personal skills such as self-confidence, communication and empathy for others.
