    In addition, we travel with the Orient Express from London to Budapest in January/February. The students decide the stops between the two cities.

    Da vi har spennende utenlandsturer på begge linjene du som elev går på, har vi valgt å legge fellesturene til vakre og spennende omgivelser i Norden.
    Foruten flere felles skoleturer setter vi også av tid til fellesarrangementer som:

    • konserter
    • kinoforestillinger
    • seminar
    • foredrag 

    Mandatory: Yes

    Price: 4 000

    Foruten alle skolens linjeturer til innland- og utland har vi en felles skoletur til Preikestolen og Stavanger. Skolen ønsker også at våre elever får delta på lokale kulturelle arrangement i skolens nærmiljø, dvs på Haugalandet. Dette er for eksempel spennende konserter, kinoforestillinger, teater og byvandring.
