School Trips
At WEK, we understand the importance of learning outside of the classroom. Each year, students go off timetable, completing exciting activities designed to develop core skills, increase awareness of their strengths and areas for growth, undertake new challenges, and engage with issues of global importance. Pupils choose from a number of exciting opportunities, including international trips as well as local experiences within the UAE.
This year, we have introduced three distinct periods during which our staff can plan trips. This enables us to offer a wide range of diverse and comprehensive opportunities for our students, while also avoiding congested periods in the calendar. The trips will have different statuses, with some open for sign-ups and others still in the planning stages.
