Spice up the school year with a trip to a different continent

It's not just languages that students can gain a good understanding of by visiting a foreign country any more. Because it's now relatively easy and cheap to organise a trip to somewhere a bit more exciting than France or Germany, drama students can now take a trip to New York, the home of American theatre and performance, while history students can visit concentration camps in Poland. Voyager School Travel is a company that helps you as teachers work out the logistics of and organise a trip for your year or class so that they get an insight into culture, history, language and everything in between.

The company has been operating since 1991 and has had great success in this sector. Its well-travelled team has over sixty years' experience between them and will ensure that your trip is rounded and stress-free wherever it is that you decide to go. Its locations include Moscow, Beijing, Washington DC and Rome, with the team members in each area experts with regard to the sights and experiences that the cities hold, as well as being experienced in dealing and communicating with young people. The classic School Trips to Paris are also available for those who want to stick a bit closer to home. The trips can cover one of two themes – either a general tour of the city or area or a trip themed around the subject being covered, such as classical music in Vienna and Salzburg or World War 2 at the D-Day beaches in Normandy. The company already believes that it leads the industry in Language Immersion tours, and is confident that it can add more high-quality tours to consolidate its position as the top schools foreign tour operator in the country.

Safety is obviously your number-one concern and the company recognises this. Its three areas of accommodation in France are all operated in line with the most stringent of local and European health and safety legislation, but it understands that you might still want to visit the site in advance of your school's trip, which it is happy to accommodate. Where there is no accommodation run by the company, it will arrange accommodation with hotels that it has dealt with before and is used to dealing with parties of schoolchildren.

Whether you're planning School Trips to Italy, Germany, Spain or further afield, it's certainly worth giving this company a call. Its trips are suitable mainly for children at secondary school, with the team capable of leading or arranging tours for anyone studying Key Stage 3 to 5. These trips could be the boost your students need, so give the company a call or contact it through its website and see what it can offer you.
