Why are school trips so important?
School trips help students improve their confidence as they experience different adventures. They allow students to gain communication and social skills as they develop new friendships during trips. Educational trips such as visits to Twycross Zoo are great for helping students get an understanding of animals, conservation, and why different species are important. Zoo trips are especially great for those that aren’t fully comfortable around animals.
