School Geography Trips to London
A vibrant capital city, unlike any other
This constantly changing world city is a great place for students to study urban change and regeneration. A visit to Stratford and the Olympic Park reveal the transformation of East London and the legacy of the 2012 Olympic Games. Students will appreciate how sport can provide the catalyst for change and be able to evaluate regeneration strategies and assess their sustainability.
For a wider breadth of study combine this with a visit to the London Wetland Centre, an oasis in the heart of London. Investigate the water cycle, wetland habitats and the species they support and understand the need for conservation and sustainability. There are so many opportunities to join students together for a well-rounded cross curricular trip. History, English Literature and Religious Studies are just a few subjects we’d suggest! Start talking to our specialist Tour Consultants.
