Day Programs
Day Programs
Our day programs for school children of all ages are focused on a wide range of topics, ideas and environmental issues that are relevant to school syllabuses and teachers of sciences, arts and the humanities.
They are designed to be self contained, comprehensive learning experiences that do not require any special pre-trip teaching preparation and can be appreciated at any time during the school year. We conduct our trips in a range of different natural environments.
Some take place at specific locations dictated by the program theme, and others are available at the following locations:
- The Po hills, 20 km east of Torino and 100 km south west of Milano.
Upon request we can carry out some of our programs in alternative locations, and can tailor-make programs on other subjects or syllabus themes.
