Oxford World School

Educational Excursions

At OWS we value the 'curiosity and discovery' that comes with the expedition.

“Nothing beats exciting hands-on experience to deepen learning. The magic of a field trip isn’t just the subject; it’s the break in routine and adventure that opens up children’s minds to new things.”

The main objective of conducting an Educational Excursion and field trip for students is to reinforce experiential and contextual learning. Further, the school organizes planned visits to various places to enrich the students and to take learning beyond the four walls of the classroom. Field trips are a way of enhancing classroom learning by making real world connections. Travel expands your horizons and school life cannot be complete without the fun of educational tours and excursions. These trips are tailor made to facilitate the students to know and understand the real, multicultural world. A host of activities are undertaken as a part of trips which act as a catalyst to think out of the box and broaden the outlook. The school discreetly organizes educational trips to strategically and historically important places and facilitates for students to reach out for information beyond the textbooks. The trips give students the opportunity to observe a particular environment that enables first-hand experience of what they are learning. In addition, students achieve a higher level of critical thinking when they evaluate their own learning compared with what they get exposed to, and they are able to modify their knowledge based on their personal experiences. Field trips also offer students and teachers the opportunity to interact outside of the classroom, thus enhancing their bonding with each other and improving their social and life skills.
