At Dover Court International School, your child will have the opportunity to take part in trips to locations across Singapore and expeditions to places all over the world. We believe that educational and residential trips and expeditions teach children that they can make a real difference to the global community and in Singapore we are ideally located to explore everything that Southeast Asia has to offer.
School trips are a fully integrated part of our curriculum throughout the school so children of all ages and abilities have the chance to participate.
Students in EYFS and Key Stage 1 take part in regular trips within Singapore. These have recently included trips to the Theatre, to Centre Stage School of the Arts, Singapore Zoo, Singapore General Hospital, URA Museum, Insect and Butterfly Park, Snow City and Gardens by the Bay.
Once in Key Stage 2 (Year 3) our students complete residential trips as well as educational trips within Singapore.
For the following trips offered, it is generally expected that all students attend these residential trips due to the enormous benefit and learning experiences they provide:
