Visits
At Kings International College, we recognise the significant role that school visits and residential trips play in supporting our vision and values, and fostering the overall development of our students. These trips are carefully designed to complement the curriculum, providing enjoyable and enriching experiences for all students.
We offer a wide range of residential and international trips across all year groups, each contributing to the holistic education of our students. These trips offer valuable opportunities for students to immerse themselves in different cultures, gain language skills, and create lasting memories. From historical excursions to Berlin, language immersion trips to France and Germany, to magical experiences at Disneyland Paris and thrilling water-sports adventures, we strive to provide valuable and memorable experiences for every student.
The importance of these trips cannot be overstated. They offer unique learning opportunities outside the traditional classroom setting, allowing students to apply their knowledge in real-world contexts and develop a deeper understanding of the subjects they study. Moreover, these trips foster personal growth, independence, and resilience, as students navigate new environments, engage with diverse cultures, and overcome challenges.
To ensure the safety and well-being of our students, all day and residential trips, including those outside of normal school hours and sporting fixtures, are covered by school insurance. We prioritise the security and welfare of our students throughout the duration of these trips.
To facilitate easy communication and coordination, all payments and consents for trips are managed through Arbor. If you require assistance or have any queries regarding school trips, including funding options, please do not hesitate to contact Mrs Felicity Bedford at:

Mrs Bedford is available to provide information, support, and guidance on all aspects of school trips.
Please note that the trips and visits we offer vary each year, ensuring a diverse range of opportunities for our students. Some trips may be tailored towards specific student groups if they are directly linked to their curriculum, allowing for focused and targeted learning experiences.
We believe that school visits and residential trips are invaluable components of our educational program, contributing to the holistic development of our students, supporting our vision and values, and creating lifelong memories and learning experiences.
