To start the year off with a bang The School Trip team went for a little school trip of their own to see for themselves all the wonderful things Liverpool has to offer.
We highly recommend a trip to Liverpool, or if you’ve been before or live nearby definitely check out some of the amazing places we were lucky enough to explore. Each of these places offer amazing school group rates, with some offering bespoke tours, workshops, free entry and free teaching resources.

We especially loved seeing some great 18th Century European Art, Baroque Art and Victorian Narrative Paintings.
The Walker Art Gallery offers great workshops to accompany your self-led visit
