Trips & Activities
At LOVE TO LEARN we see trips and activities as a crucial part of education and development.
Headteachers have told us how important a wide range of experiences is for child to achieve well at school.
Many of the families we work with are geographically isolated, and children do not often leave the borough in which they live.
Trips & activities help us to get to know the children we work with better and to gain and develop trust with families as a whole.
They enable children to:
- Have Fun
- Develop Confidence
- Gain new experiences
- See new places
- Overcome challenges
We run activity programmes in the school holidays, which include sports and cultural activities aswell as camping holidays and residentials.
We have worked in collaboration with the South Bank Centre, Natural History Museum, Royal College of Art, Pump House Gallery, Tara Arts, Urban Arts Academy to name a few.
Holidays include camping in Gloucestershire, Family holidays to Degmo Somali farm camp in wales and Haven Hastings and youth activity holidays at Hindleap Warren Outdoor education centre in the Ashdown Forest.
When we talk to the children and young people they nearly always mention trips as their favourite thing about being involved with Love to Learn.
