Field Trips

Codrington School believes that field trips are important educational opportunities that extend the classroom learning off site. They provide natural observations and experiences in more responsive environments. Critical to each excursion is the expectation of relevance, flexibility, responsiveness, accessibility and affordability, set within the context of safety and security. These expectations insure that the learning experience brings about purposeful involvement, expanded interpersonal relationships, and knowledge constructed within the climate of inquiry and diversity. Here on the island of Barbados, there are many exceptional cultural excursions that are available and relevant to the units of inquiry and the development of the learner profile. These opportunities serve to create connections and many moments for students to construct meaning about their world. Previous trips taken include the following: Kendal Dairy Farm, Harrison’s Cave, Exclusive Cottons of Barbados, Solar House, Surfside Gym, Eco Adventures, Atlantis Submarine, Folkstone Marine Reserve, Fischer Pond Guest House, and the Sea-U Guest House.
