From the classroom to Canberra

From the classroom to Canberra

When it comes to student educational trips that leave a lasting impression, Canberra tops the list for its powerful blend of education, history, and hands-on learning. For Prescott Primary Northern, their recent journey from Adelaide to Canberra with WorldStrides was more than just a camp – it was an unforgettable learning experience that brought the classroom to life.

Seamless planning from start to finish

Planning an educational travel program can feel overwhelming, but for Prescott Primary Northern’s Program Leader, the experience was refreshingly easy.

“Our recent school camp trip from Adelaide to Canberra, organised by WorldStrides, was an incredible success! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and enjoyable, thanks to the flexibility and helpfulness of the WorldStrides team.”

WorldStrides takes the stress out of organising with a dedicated team that supports teachers every step of the way – from itinerary planning and bookings to on-the-ground support during the tour.

Flexible, thoughtful coordination

“The journey itself was comfortable and well-coordinated, with every detail meticulously planned. The WorldStrides team was always ready to accommodate our needs, whether it was adjusting the itinerary or providing additional support during the trip. Their flexibility made it easy for us to focus on enjoying the camp and making the most of our time in Canberra.”

Whether it’s adjusting an itinerary or responding to last-minute needs, we’re known for our adaptability – something every teacher values when travelling with a group of students.

Learning that sticks

Canberra offers a rare chance for students to engage directly with Australia’s history, government, and culture. Prescott Primary Northern’s students had the opportunity to visit some of the country’s most important institutions.

“The activities and educational experiences arranged by WorldStrides were top-notch. Our students had the opportunity to visit significant landmarks, engage in interactive learning sessions, and bond with their peers in a fun and safe environment.”

From Parliament House and the High Court to the Australian War Memorial and Questacon, we create tours that blend education with fun. The result? Learning experiences that students remember long after they return home.
