Trips, Visits & Experiences

Educational Visits

During the year we aim to take the children in KS1 and KS2 on at least one visit associated with the topic being studied in class. Curriculum information is published on our website at the start of the year in order that you can plan your own linked visits should you wish to do so. 

We also receive a wide variety of educational visitors, including sports specialists, authors, museum curators and a number of others who are specialists in their fields. These activities form a valuable part of the children's learning and development, but we do depend on the financial support of parents to be able to continue organising them. 

Experience Days

To enhance our curriculum and provide meaningful learning opportunities, we aim to provide the children with a variety of ‘experience days.’ These utilise the space and resources within school and have included a Tudor banquet, an expedition across ‘Antarctica,’ survival skills during ranger day and recreating the Great Fire of London. 

School Journeys

We ask that parents support us in this exciting residential-experience element of our curriculum. No child would ever be excluded in cases of genuine financial hardship and we would endeavour to ensure that every member of the class took part in the residential trips as we believe they are such an important aspect of our provision at Ewell Grove.

Clubs and Curriculum Environment

We have an exciting range of before, after-school & lunchtime clubs. The clubs are taken by teachers, teaching assistants and outside specialists. There is a balance of fee-paying and free clubs and we work hard to ensure that all children have equality of access and opportunity in terms of this element of extra-curricular provision. Information about each term's clubs are sent to parents in the weekly newsletter at the beginning of each term.
