The Cambridge Tradition | Field Trips

During their month in the UK students enjoy day-long field trips, which include:

Canterbury. Canterbury is not only a beautiful medieval town, but has been a seat of religious power for almost 1500 years. It is now the site of Canterbury Cathedral, a huge gothic edifice, in which Archbishop Thomas Becket was murdered in 1170 by knights of Henry II. One of the most infamous assassinations in British history, T.S. Eliot described it in his Murder in the Cathedral. The cathedral was also the destination of Chaucer’s pilgrims in The Canterbury Tales.

London. The capital city of the United Kingdom, the seat of Parliament, and the home of the Royal Family, London is truly one of the greatest cities in the world. For over 2000 years a center of business, religion and culture, London offers students unforgettable sites and experiences. Each major teacher crafts a unique visit to London for their students featuring sites relevant to their subject.
