Overseas Adventures

In recent years, we have offered students a number of overseas visits. These provide students with unforgettable cultural opportunities, a chance to see incredible scenery and landmarks and valuable opportunities to strengthen friendships and make memories that will last long beyond their time at Copleston. In recent years, we have taken students to New York to see famous landmarks they had previously only seen in movies and on television. A trip to Iceland gave students the opportunity to visit volcanoes and to see the stunning Northern Lights. Our most recent trip took students to Italy where they made gelato, visited the stunning Amalfi coast, Vesuvius and the incredible ruins at Pompeii. 

We hope to continue offering these experiences to students in the years to come. We also recently secured funding for some incredible overseas cultural experiences via the Turing Scheme which will involve a longer stay in some more remote and unforgettable locations in what promises to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience for our students.
