SCHOOL TRIPS
At Westdene Primary we run a number of educational school visits throughout the year. Pupils can derive much educational benefit from participating in these visits. In particular, they have an opportunity to undergo experiences not available in the classroom or school grounds. Visits help to develop a pupil’s investigative skills enabling them to further their knowledge and understanding and residential visits in particular encourage greater independence and facilitate social interaction.
A sample of trips that have run in the past few years are as follows, with example costs. (Please note trips do change from year to year so this is representative of the types of trips the school runs).
