SCHOOL TRIPS 2022 - 2023

School trips are a wonderful opportunity to support students with their concept learning through experience. From theatre trips to Ski Dubai, our students have had the chance to take part in a wide variety of activities, that help to develop their skills and understanding in new environments.

During Arts week, Year 1 embarked on an exciting school trip to Jam Jar, a captivating space dedicated to artistic exploration, aligning perfectly with our concept of ‘Awe and Wonder’.

The trip provided a wonderful opportunity, not only to celebrate Arts Week, but to delve deeper into the theme of sunsets and natural landscapes, delving into the idea of awe-inspiring experiences. Using skills from their art lessons, the children put their artistic knowledge into practice as they followed step-by-step instructions to paint their very own sunset masterpiece on a canvas, which they proudly took home. Through this hands-on experience, the children not only gained a deeper understanding of how ‘awe’ can be discovered in nature, but it also enhanced their painting skills.

Overall, the children had a fantastic time and the trip to Jam Jar offered a rich and immersive learning experience, fostering creativity and awe-inspired exploration among our Year 1 students.

I loved painting the background using hot colours like yellow and red. We chose what landmarks to make and I painted Ain Dubai, the Burj Al Arab, and the Burj Khalifa. We had to use a thin paintbrush so it was really neat. I was really proud of my painting.
