We consider our annual London Trip the capstone experience to a Veritas education.   Every March, our eighth graders spend one week crisscrossing London to take in its culture and history.  We visit famous historical landmarks such as St. Paul’s Cathedral, Westminster Abbey, Tower of London, and Buckingham Palace.  Students enter the world of Shakespearean drama by visiting and participating in the Globe Theatre’s workshops.  In a day’s trip outside of London, students explore Stratford upon Avon (the birthplace of Shakespeare) and Warwick Castle, where they experience life in a medieval castle.  This year, we have added a day in Paris!! 

Overall, the London trip is a hands-on educational experience par excellence.
