Residential and day trips are a key part of ensuring that all students get the opportunity to put our Learner Profile into action outside the classroom. By developing these characteristics, we enable the students to grow into capable, independent young people.
Trips come in all shapes and sizes. There are a number of day trips throughout the year, where the students get to take part in various outdoor pursuits on our enormous school campus and in the surrounding area. As students move up the School, in addition to mornings at the Outdoor Education Centre or visits to local sights, residential trips become more of a feature. Year 4 have their first residential experience with a sleepover in Marshall house, where they get to spend a night away from home in our fantastic Prep School boarding house. Year 5 will go further afield, spending the night at somewhere like Noong Nooch Tropical gardens, where they explore pottery, science and even learn some Muay Thai! Years 6, 7 and 8 might travel down to Sattahip to investigate coastal areas and attain a snorkelling qualification, or find themselves visiting Bangkok to experience art and Thai culture for 2 nights. Meanwhile the Senior School students journey further to Kanchanaburi or Chiang Mai for 3 nights of team building challenges and outward-bound activities.
