Sadly, all school trips are on hold until the pandemic is under control.
In addition to school trips that are available to students taking particular courses, such as the Huntsman Marine Biology trip to St. Andrews, New Brunswick every fall for senior biology students, or the Dance and Band trips every spring, teachers will occasionally organize trips that are open to all students. Recent examples of this are the trip to Italy in March 2019, the eco-educational trip to Costa Rica in February 2017, or the 'Me to We' service trip to Ecuador in April 2015.
