Each year Marsden offers a number of international trips which can enhance our students’ educational experience. These trips are not a required part of the curriculum and are entirely optional but nevertheless are an invaluable way of learning. An international school trip is very different from a family holiday, requiring a high level of commitment to learning, curiosity, engagement, a willingness to try new experiences, co-operation, self-management and resilience. School trips are highly organised with very little down time for relaxation. They offer a full-on and unforgettable experience.
