Discovery Tours
Why take a school group away for a tour?
At Key Stage 3 and below, there is good reason to take groups away for social, as well as strictly educational, reasons.
A few days with your year 7s and 8s in a foreign country, but not too far from home, is an excellent way of building morale and friendships – it also lets the pupils see that their teachers do not exist only in the classroom.
If you are thinking of taking such a group, then take a look at our Discovery Tours which have been created for groups in the upper years of primary and the lower years of secondary school.

Amsterdam and the Dutch Coast
A visit to the beautiful city of Amsterdam with its network of canals and cycle routes has much to offer. From world-renowned art museums, to the chance to see the production of its famous cheeses and clogs, and there is of course the Walibi Holland theme park.
The Dutch youth hostel organisation has comfortable accommodation in both Amsterdam and in nearby seaside resorts; so you may enjoy these visits and spend some time on the clean, sandy beaches.
