Everyone's boarded, the luggage is loaded up and the coach departs school for the journey to the Isle of Wight
Trip Diaries are distributed so that everyone has something to keep them quiet
Toilet stops will be taken as necessary
After a timely arrival at the Isle of Wight it's time to get off the coach and head upstairs to the open deck or the passenger lounge for a good look around. For many students, this will be their first time at sea
It's a crossing to on the Isle of Wight, across waters which are generally quite sheltered
Invigorating Downland Walk
A 4-mile walk taking around 2 hours (with a quick picnic stop) from Freshwater Bay to the Needles, this is a well used part of the Isle of Wight Coastal Path offering wonderful views of the iconic Needles Rocks, and across to Old Harry Rocks in Dorset on a clear day. You'll pass a 19th century fort, a cold war rocket testing site, and a monument to the Victorian poet laureate Alfred, Lord Tennyson.
Home of the Isle of Wight Zoo
Long known as Isle of Wight (or Sandown) Zoo, The Wildheart Trust is a wildlife centre built within the ruins of a Victorian fort, on Sandown seafront.
Clifftop Walk
Take a short but exhilarating clifftop walk over Culver Down, taking in the historic Bembridge Fort and Yarborough Monument, wartime gun placements, along with sweeping views over Sandown Bay and Brading Haven.
Journey to a Forgotten Land!
A mini-golf adventure that takes players on a prehistoric journey into a forgotten land full of dinosaurs! Includes water features and life-sized dinosaur models.
Expertly guided fossil hunts
One of the best places on earth to come face to face with the ancient past, the Isle of Wight has a rich fossil record spanning 130 million years, from the dinosaurs of the early Cretaceous to the freezing tundra of the last Ice Age.
Up Close and Personal
Get up close and personal with the world-famous Needles! This short boat ride includes a detailed live commentary, which can be adapted to suit your age group or topic of interest.
Theatre Workshops and Shows
Spotlight Theatre Company takes over Shanklin Theatre to offer a variety of educational workshops and a summer season of professional evening shows tailored to the 7-14 age group.
Land of Adventure
The rightly-named "Land of Imagination" with many different attractions in one park. Everything from nursery rhyme characters through to pirates, cowboys, fairies, goblins and life-sized animatronic dinosaurs!
Professional DJ Party Evening
The highlight of the week - one of our talented and experienced professional mobile DJs will lead the group through a 2 hour fun fest of music, lights, dancing and games (age appropriate).
After a short drive to the mainland it's time to get back on the ferry for the journey home to the "north island" as we call it...
It's a crossing to on the mainland, and an ideal opportunity for everyone to eat a packed lunch before the onward journey
Back on the coach and now it's just a simple case of zipping up the motorway and back to school
The homeward journey should be a lot quieter than the drive down - hopefully everyone will be exhausted from having a great time here on the Isle of Wight and full of precious memories
Again, toilet stops will be taken as necessary
A great extra to encourage students to engage with their surroundings throughout the trip - they can also include a selection of our curriculum-relevant resources.
