Education

An education doesn’t start or stop in the classroom

The classroom doesn’t need to be a place full of doom

An education is enhanced by visiting a special place

If only just to see the look on the children’s face

 

You can read all the books that inform our mind

And you can hear about the latest scientific find

But there is nothing better than seeing it first hand

And taking a trip that has been risk assessed and planned

 

We need to give more value to real life experiences

Because if we don’t the next generation will only read about this

It’s the simple low cost trips that can have the biggest reward

Even a trip on the train or bus can hit the right chord

 

These trips can change how the child will think

A career decision is teetering on the brink

Please give children life experiences they’ll never forget

Or as a generation we may just regret
