Ideal Destinations To Travel With The School

Traveling with the school is becoming a more common practice, since it is about school activities that undoubtedly help a lot in children’s learning. Traveling is always learning, but that is multiplied in the case of the little ones, since during a day or several they leave their comfort zone, which causes them to have to sharpen all their senses and reasoning.

Field trips and study trips

The truth is that traveling with the school is done throughout the year, since day trips are very common. And these are excursions close to the place of residence in which one or two places of great attraction are visited.

But there are also other longer trips that can be the typical colonies or camps, and even study trips at the end of a training cycle. Anyway, there are different ways to travel with the school, and here we are going to give you some idea in case you have to be the one to propose the destinations of that school trip.

Traveling with the school during the day

Although it is clear that this type of excursion depends on the place of residence, here we will give some idea.

For example, from Valencia a very appealing excursion to do with children is to go to La Albufera. This is a protected natural area and is a good place to teach a natural science class. Although it is also ideal to talk about traditions, history and even literature.

If it is about organizing a day trip for Galician schoolchildren, a great idea is to go to Santiago de Compostela. The reasons are obvious. You will know the most charismatic city in your autonomous community and one of the most visited places in Christianity.

Traveling with the school doing a night out

Some school trips with students of a certain age already schedule slightly longer trips  where they stay overnight. Something that by itself becomes part of children’s learning and that they love.

But in addition to that little adventure, you have to give content to that trip, so we will propose two very interesting destinations in different parts of the Hispanic geography.

One of them would be the capital of Extremadura, Mérida. An ideal city to travel with the school. There the children are waiting for monuments from Roman times with which they will learn history in a very entertaining and fun way.

And another very interesting destination could be the Moncayo area, in the Iberian System. A place close to communities such as Navarra, Aragón, La Rioja or Castilla y León. Not only that, there are walks through nature, medieval monuments and the footprints of great poets like Bécquer, author of some legends that can be recreated on the trip.

Study travels

We will finish these ideas on destinations to travel with the school by talking about study trips. Which already last several days and allow you to get further away from the place of residence. Here the possibilities are many, depending on the time available and also on the budget.

For example, there are those who take a flight or a boat to Mallorca, since visiting an island becomes part of the charm of the trip. Although, in addition, sites such as the Drach caves, the Gothic cathedral or fortresses such as Capdepera are discovered.

Another very traditional option to travel with the school is to go to Andalusia for a week. The reasons are obvious, since it is a place that almost guarantees good weather, and also has endless places to visit, including some that are a real lesson in coexistence in the past. Something very important in current times.

And besides that, there are other study trips that are proposed to leave Spain. There are those who go to Italy, to discover its enormous historical heritage, or who go to the Netherlands and Belgium, in order to get to know northern Europe.

Wherever you go, traveling with the school can be decisive in becoming passionate about traveling and seeing the world in the future.
