Tours & Excursions

Experiences for life

We offer a range of tours and excursions that build knowledge, confidence and capability in our boys. These opportunities are an integral part of our boys’ all-round education, helping each student to connect their learning with real-world experiences that stay with them for life.

National and international tours

Our range of national and international tours support our classroom learning, sporting pursuits and co-curricular extension. On tour, our boys connect with students from around the country and the world, sharing experiences, gaining knowledge, exploring new places and learning different perspectives.

Our tour offerings are based around our boys’ interests and needs, with staff and students suggesting activities that connect learning with real-world experiences. We dedicate specialist resources to developing enriching tour opportunities that enhance educational outcomes for our boys.
