Educational Visits to the Battlefields of Ypres Salient and the Somme
2014 to 2018 marks 100 years since the World War 1. This period provides a real once-in-a lifetime opportunity for students to visit the Battlefields of Ypres Salient and the Somme on a school trip and play their part in a long-lasting legacy.
Prime Minister David Cameron said, "Our duty with these commemorations is clear. To honour those who served. To remember those who died and to ensure that the lessons learnt live with us forever."
If you plan to take one school trip in 2014, we really believe it has to be a trip to the WW1 battlefields in Belgium and France. We've done all the work and enriched our already popular school trips with special commemorative visits, events and attractions. We've got some great centenary tours that give students a deeper emotional connection with the events that took place during the war and provide the opportunity for them to appreciate the scale of sacrifice and the impact that the war had on the development of Britain and the world as it is today.
Diverse School Travel offers itineraries suitable for all schools and all budgets starting from just £59 per person for a one-day trip to Ypres. Of course we can also personalise your itineraries to suit your learning requirements. To make your school trip extra special, we can arrange for you to lay a commemorative wreath at one of the battlefield memorials or even follow in the footsteps of your local battalion!
Contact us on 0121 271 0121 and we will be happy to help your school to play its part in commemorating the WW1 Centenary.
