Eco School Trips encourage pupils to take part in educational outdoor activities that are designed to increase environmental awareness.

Eco School Trips take educational groups out of the classroom and into the natural environment, encouraging pupils to take part in educational outdoor activities that are designed to improve environmental awareness. There is a wide selection of topics that can be covered under this subject, including biodiversity, energy, global citizenship, healthy living, recycling, marine life, and transportation. These are topics that are essential for the future development of our planet. And by taking your class on an Eco Educational Trip, you will be playing your part in improving our current environmental situation.

Here at UK School Trips, we believe in eco environmental learning through tours and workshops. For this reason, we have listed a wide variety of educational eco experiences on our website. At Ringsfield Hall Eco Activity Centre in Suffolk, students are taught to connect with nature and understand the environmental impacts/challenges on the planet. Carymoor Environmental Education Centre in Somerset provides school groups with outdoor learning experiences that concentrate on wildlife, living sustainably, waste management, and recycling. Whether your Key Stage 1 class is just starting their eco journey, or your Key Stage 4 class is studying a specific environmental topic in detail, there is an Eco School Trip provider for every class and educational group.
