Study tours
Joint trip for the whole school
Spain and Gibraltar
The study tours are an important part of the school year. They have three main focuses: Culture and country knowledge, community and line-related activities. In recent years, we have been on a joint study trip to Southern Europe.
Here we visit the Andalucia area, and are based near the town of Rota. Here we will have both different plans and joint activities. There is the possibility of surfing, Frisbee golf, charming cycle tours and plans with the beach as a starting point. We also make time to visit the historic city of Seville and the British territory of Gibraltar.
The joint trip is included in the school fees. This means that on trips only pocket money is added. On joint trips, there will be activities and schemes across lines and this means a lot for the social community. Departure in the autumn semester.
Sports Extreme Australia
Australia and Thailand
Sport Extreme Australia is traveling on a 4-week trip to Australia and Thailand in the spring term. The aim of the study tour is to learn about other cultures and cultural differences, while at the same time practicing and challenging ourselves in extreme sports activities.
In Thailand, we travel around, from north to south, and get to know the country and its history a little. Among other things, we travel to a orphanage in Chiang Rai which is one of our aid projects at the school. Here we hear about the work they do, as well as that we spend time doing activities and playing with the children who live there.
IN Chiang Mai we visit, among other things cycling, bungee jumping and other cultural experiences. Then we travel from Bangkok to southern Thailand, where most of the time will be spent on water activities. Here we will finish the Padi Open Water diving label. There are many exciting fish to see and if you are lucky you will spot a turtle or shark.
In Australia the main focus is surfing. We are going on a 4 day surf camp to Lake Tabourie. We get to experience Australia's fine beaches and, among other things, see kangaroo. Most of the time we are in Wollongong, a city a little south of Sydney. We spend the time on training, the trampoline park and tandem parachute jump. Among other things, plans are made for day trips to Sydney, meeting with the indigenous people and time to being together.
