  1. The Beach

The beach is surely a fun idea for a field trip, but it does not sound educational at all, right? Wrong! Going on a school trip to the beach involves much more than just swimming and building sandcastles. This trip can be an amazing opportunity to learn more about marine life, especially if you teach science. You may also capitalize on this chance to teach your students about environmental pollution and its impact on sea creatures. Furthermore, you can finish off your trip by cleaning the beach to instill in your students the importance of taking a stand against pollution.

  1. The Opera House

If you are a music teacher or you have little artists in your class, then this trip idea is for you. While a field trip to the opera house might not appeal to everyone, it can be a good way of introducing your students to the finer forms of art. In fact, you can entice your students to go on this trip if you visit an opera house outside your country. Based on the detailed articles on this website, the Royal Opera House in London can be a fantastic destination for your field trip. In addition to the great shows it hosts, it is a wonder of modern architecture, especially after its renovation. Regardless of the opera house you end up visiting, this trip is certainly the perfect combination of art and fun.

  1. Camping

There is no better way of making your student depend on themselves than going on a camping trip. Because everything is better with friends, you will find that your students are extremely excited about going on this adventure with their classmates. During this trip, you can teach your students basic survival skills like building a fire and setting a tent. Moreover, you can recount scary stories over your campfire while roasting marshmallows; how fun!

  1. The Library

To the bookworms out there, this field trip will certainly strike your fancy! The public library can be a great venue for your next school trip if you want to encourage your students to pick up reading. This idea can work like a charm provided that your city’s public library holds many special events your students can join. Also, you can make your students more interested in the material they are studying by planning meetings with their favorite authors or seminars about the books you are covering in class.

  1. The Planetarium

The planetarium remains a staple field trip destination, and for good reason. Not only does the planetarium enhance your students’ sense of wonder and states their natural curiosity, but it is also plenty of fun. This school trip suggestion can help your class know more about physics and astronomy while taking the coolest shots of the constellations. Furthermore, most planetariums offer souvenirs for visitors, so your students can always have a reminder of your amazing trip together.

  1. The Movies

Going to the movie theatre and watching the adaptation of the material you are covering in class can be a great way to encourage your students to finish their assigned reading on time. Since everyone likes going to the movies, your class is guaranteed to be extremely excited when you bring it up. After your trip is over, you can take some time to compare the film to the book and share your opinions about the delivery of the cast. This way, you can encourage your class to voice their opinions and have meaningful discussions.

Planning a successful field trip can be exhausting, but the payoff is certainly worth the trouble. If you want to give your class the chance to have fun and learn new things all at once, give the above suggestions a try. However, before announcing the trip, make sure that everything, including permission slips and transportation, is in order, to ensure that the day goes without a hitch. Don’t forget to enjoy yourself too, because you are the one responsible for setting everything in motion!

Editor’s Note: Remember to always follow your local Covid-19 regulations and recommendations.
