Trips and Visits

Learning Beyond the Classroom

At Bamford Academy, we believe that learning doesn’t stop at the classroom door. Our trips and visits are an important part of school life, carefully chosen to complement our curriculum and give children opportunities to experience their learning in new and exciting ways. Whether exploring history first-hand, discovering the natural world, visiting places of cultural interest or taking part in creative and sporting experiences, our pupils are encouraged to ask questions, develop their understanding and make memories along the way. Here are some of the trips and visits our children have enjoyed, and the learning experiences they have brought to life.

Where our children have already been:

Year 5 Visit to Jodrell Bank Trip

Year 5 had a fantastic time recently extending their understanding of space during their exciting trip to Jodrell Bank. The children were amazed to see the iconic Lovell Telescope up close and enjoyed exploring the many interactive exhibits throughout the discovery centre. A real highlight of the day was visiting the Space Dome, where they experienced an immersive journey through the universe.

What a fantastic end to our Space topic!
