At Francis Holland, we are committed to providing opportunities for educational and cultural enrichment as well as encouraging girls to develop friendships beyond the classroom.

Our programme of trips and visits is designed to show our pupils the very best of London, Great Britain and the rest of the world. Discovery Week takes place in the Summer Term, and gives all pupils the opportunity to gain new skills and bond with their year group. Some trips are included in the cost of the fees and some are offered at an additional charge.

Please follow us on Instagram, follow us on Twitter and visit our News page to keep updated with the latest trips and visits, or check out highlights from recent trips below.
