TOURS & TREKS

To provide our students with a unique and enriching experience, we organise educational tours to various states of India, including Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh, and Uttar Pradesh. These trips are designed to be both informative and fun, allowing our students to explore the rich history and culture of our country.

Our students get to visit iconic places like Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Himachal Pradesh etc., where they can see magnificent forts, palaces, and monuments up close. They also explore historical sites in Himachal Pradesh, gaining a deeper understanding of the events that shaped our nation's history. By personally visiting these sites, students learn about the stories behind them in a hands-on and engaging way.

These tours typically span 2-5 days and 1-4 nights, giving our students ample time to soak in the experiences. Students enjoy delicious meals, participate in exciting activities, and bond with their peers while exploring new places, broadening their knowledge, and building their confidence, teamwork, and communication skills. Tours and treks are thoughtfully curated to align with the learning needs of our Montessori Upper Elementary and Senior Wing students. These age-appropriate excursions serve as powerful extensions of the classroom, offering context to the lessons taught within school walls. By stepping into environments that spark curiosity and critical thinking, students are encouraged to observe, question, and engage with their surroundings, thereby deepening their learning and developing a broader worldview.

More than just educational outings, these journeys are carefully structured to foster self-reliance, confidence, and camaraderie. Away from their familiar routines, students learn to navigate new environments, make independent decisions, and collaborate with peers, cultivating essential life skills in the process. The challenges and experiences they encounter help build resilience and adaptability, nurturing not only their intellectual growth but also their emotional and social development.

The Tours and Treks program is a vital part of the school’s holistic learning philosophy, offering students an enriching blend of academic exploration and real-world experience. Inspired by Saint Augustine’s timeless adage, “The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page,” these journeys are designed to immerse students in India’s vibrant culture, history, and geography, transforming the world into a living classroom.
