Year 8 Trips

The information below gives a snapshot of the trips available to pupils in various year groups. There is a wide variety of trips available to pupils during each school year throughout their time at Cambourne. Please note that the trips offered change year on year and are reliant on what staff can offer, with considerations of cost and educational benefits. We would stress that other trips may not be regularly offered or guaranteed but have provided information on previous destinations to give you a taste of what could be on offer for your child in order for you to see the variety and scale, and to assist with any budgeting considerations.
